Piers Morgan has attributed his recent hospitalization to none other than Donald Trump – albeit in a tongue-in-cheek manner.

The British broadcaster, known for his outspoken commentary, revealed today that he underwent hip replacement surgery following a severe fracture to his femur.

Morgan, 60 years old, detailed the incident on his X account, explaining that he tripped on a small step while dining at a London hotel restaurant.

The fall resulted in a fracture to the neck of his femur, an injury so significant that it necessitated immediate surgical intervention to replace the hip joint.

Morgan said he will use crutches for the next six weeks and avoid long-haul flights for a full 12 weeks.

He noted that the new year was "off to a cracking start" before adding the satirical quip about blaming Trump.
