Outspoken Piers, 52, who is known for his online feuds, could not resist responding to the put down.
The presenter wrote a few hours later: "I'm devastated, who is she?"
In response to another Twitter user describing him as being "utterly destroyed", he added: "Thanks mate. Always hard when you're snubbed by people who lost a cake-making show."
This is also not the first time Ruby has taken aim at a celebrity on social media.
Ruby is known for her frank assessments of celebrities on Twitter
Last year, the columnist and author hit out at Great British Bake Off judge Paul Hollywood after he decided to follow the show to its new home.
"Ahhhhhh a peacocking manchild lingering wherever the money is. I am shocked," she sarcastically tweeted.
"This, from a man who turned up to work revving a rental Lamborghini. Or was it a Ferrari. I don't remember. The air was thick w testosterone."
Good Morning Britain continues weekday mornings from 6am on ITV.
