Piers Morgan has hit back after Sophia Hutchins described her Good Morning Britain interview with him as "distasteful."

The broadcaster, 54, told the sun cream entrepreneur, 23, to "get over" herself after she lashed out at his line of questioning, which focused on her links to I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! star Caitlyn Jenner.

On her Instagram page on Wednesday, Hutchins said: “Good Morning Britain, having Piers Morgan is your biggest mistake.

"What a joke of a journalist he is. What a pathetic line of questioning he had for me this morning. Totally not cool.

“I went on to support Caitlyn on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!, not deal with bull**** questions from some jack*** like Piers Morgan.

“Piers, neither of us will ever do your show again. You’ve shown your true colours yet again. How disappointing.”

She later added: “Check out this insanely distasteful line of questioning by @PiersMorgan on @GoodMorningBritain.”

Morgan opened his interview with Hutchins questioning the nature of her relationship with I’m A Celebrity star Jenner, 70.

He asked her: “We don’t want to oversell your relationship. You’re not actually a couple? Or you are? How would you categorise it?

Hutchins responded: “Is that the opening question Piers?” she said before laughing.

She went on to explain they were “family, business partners” and she is Jenner’s manager.

He added: “So no hanky panky then? Just friends?”

To which she responded: “Oh my god.”
