Inside Piers Morgan’s marriage with Celia Walden after HSTikkyTokky Manosphere row
- Celia Walden, 50, and Piers Morgan, 60, met in 2006, when he gave a speech to 1000 people who began “openly jeering” him because it was so bad. The TV host revealed in 2019 that it was when his future-wife told him “that just bombed”, that he realised she was “perfect bride material”.
- The couple got married four years later, on June 24, 2010, at St Mary’s Church, in Swinbrook. Although they largely kept their relationship out of the public eye, Celia, who is a journalist herself, does have an active social media presence – which was used against her by controversial internet personality HSTikkyTokky – real name Harrison Sullivan. He was the subject of Louis Theroux‘s new Netflix documentary Inside the Manosphere, which exposes Sullivan as he fights strangers on camera and peddles Crypto-scams.
- A year after getting married, Celia and Piers welcomed their daughter Elise, who was born on November 23, 2011. She is Piers’ fourth child, with the outspoken media personality already sharing three sons, Spencer, Stanley and Albert with his ex-wife Marion Shalloe.
- Celia is a journalist and novelist, who started out writing a gossip column for Londoner’s Diary, in the Evening Standard. She has also worked at The Telegraph, and has written several books, including 2008’s Harm’s Way and the controversial 2011 memoir Babysitting George. She also published the 2023 psychological thriller The Square.
- Piers Morgan sensationally walked out of his interview with Harrison Sullivan, when the 24-year-old brought up a 2022 photo of Celia lying in the sun, next to an old sign that read: “Wanted. Pool boy. No experience needed.” The light-hearted Instagram snap was used against Piers and his wife, with Sullivan making vile comments about the couple to goad Piers, before he brands the content creator him a “f***Ing idiot”, a “half-wit”, and a “sexist, misogynistic, homophobic twerp.”
