Piers Morgan Is 'Disappointed' That Ewan McGregor Canceled Show Appearance Over Insensitive Women's March Remarks
Piers Morgan isn’t happy that Ewan McGregor has refused to appear on his morning show Good Morning Britain due to his statements on the various Women’s Marches across the globe.
Over the weekend, Piers tweeted, “I’m planning a ‘Men’s March’ to protest at the creeping global emasculation of my gender by rabid feminists. Who’s with me?” Shortly after, Ewan took to his Twitter to respond: “Was going on Good Morning Britain, didn’t realise @piersmorgan was host. Won’t go on with him after his comments about #WomensMarch.”

Speaking on Wednesday’s (January 25) Good Morning Britain, Morgan said: “I was very disappointed with what he did – he let down the viewers and he let down himself. Ewan McGregor is a major star, perfectly entitled to have his opinion about politics, I’m entitled to mine.”
“We should all be able to have different views,” Morgan added. “I would have respected [McGregor] more if he’d walked out here sat down and said: ‘You are wrong about the Women’s March’, and we could have had an adult conversation about it. Having a conversation about these things is how we all move on.”
