Donald Trump Jr. says he is “insane” CBS has put “The Talk” on a hiatus while investigating a heated argument between Sharon Osbourne and co-host Sheryl Underwood.
The show announced on Monday that they were canceling their live shows until Wednesday to ascertain the disagreement, which occurred after Osbourne defended his longtime friend Piers Morgan, who accused Meghan Markle of lying in his recent Oprah account. .
“This is going crazy!” Don Jr., 43, wrote next to a tweet Morgan. “Now other programs are being taken off the air because someone who really knows someone else doesn’t believe they are racist simply because someone else accused him of it without any basis, simply because he didn’t believe in someone else. I understood?!?”
Morgan, 55, wrote on Monday of the controversy, “So @CBS took The Talk off the air while investigating @MrsSOsbourne’s ‘scandal’ defending me when @sherylunderwood said I was ‘racist’ for disbelieving Meghan Markle. The TRUE scandal is that I am labeled a racist for refusing to believe a liar. “
The drama unfolded for the first time last week, when Morgan left “Good Morning Britain” during a debate with co-host Alex Beresford about Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah Winfrey.
Soon after, Morgan announced that he was leaving the show forever.
His longtime friend Osbourne defended him shortly afterwards, tweeting, “I’m with you. I’m in your side. People forget that you get paid for your opinion and that you are just speaking your truth. “
Then, during an episode of “The Talk”, Osbourne said, “I liked everything [Morgan] said? Do I agree with what he said? No, because it is his opinion. It is not my opinion. But why did I support a longtime friend and co-worker of mine for years that everyone will, if you support him, then you must be racist because he is racist? “
Underwood replied that Morgan’s “implication” dismissing Markle was racist, not the words themselves.
After the debate, Osbourne posted a long apology, saying she does not “tolerate racism, misogyny or intimidation”.
In response, Morgan, who reportedly “thrives on the uproar”, tried to demand his own apology from CBS.
