Piers Morgan ‘cuts son out of will’ after he sided with J.K. Rowling during feud
PIERS MORGAN joked that he has cut his son out of his will after he appeared to side with J.K. Rowling during their heated Twitter feud earlier this week.
Piers Morgan has joked that he has cut his son Spencer out of his will amid his J.K. Rowling feud
Spencer Morgan, 23, mocked the Good Morning Britain host's ongoing social media spat with the Harry Potter author by revealing that he was secretly a massive fan.
Unveiling a tattoo that was inspired by her book Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Spencer shared it with both his dad and Rowling, writing: "Well, this is awkward."
But Piers didn't let his son get off lightly and later quipped that the youngster would no longer earn his inheritance.

My son will be sorrier, I just cut him out of my will.
"My son will be sorrier, I just cut him out of my will. cc @spencermorgan93," he posted.
And his insults didn't end there, with Piers adding: "Sadly, he's a Potter fanatic. My biggest failure in 23 years of parenting. Fortunately, he's as fanatical about Arsenal so I forgive him."
Responding to an earlier snap Spencer posted, which showed him standing outside of the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child play in London, Piers slammed: "'Cursed Child' sums this up."
Seemingly keen to keep the peace, Spencer has since hit back at his father on the social networking site, tweeting a snap of himself at Privet Drive.

"Time to end this where it all began," he captioned the image.
Piers and J.K. have been arguing incessantly over the last week, with the author dealing a serious blow when she screenshotted an article by the journalist, who credited the writer for her impact on children's creativity.
Unaware that he was behind the piece, the TV presenter jibed: "Priceless humblebrag BS", before adding: "Nobody plays the celebrity game more abusively or ruthlessly than you, Ms 'Intensely Private Billionaire'."
