Early Years

As a reporter for South London News in 1985, Morgan began his career in journalism. Three years later, he started writing the celebrity-focused Bizarre column full-time for The Sun after three years of freelancing there. He was chosen by media tycoon Rupert Murdoch in 1994 to lead News of the World, making him the youngest national newspaper editor in 50 years, according to Metro.

He was ousted in 2004 after two years as the Daily Mirror’s editor. Then, according to Celebrity Net Worth, he bought the Press Gazette in May 2005 and later sold it after the newspaper declared bankruptcy.

Personal Life

In 1991, Morgan wed Marion Shalloe, a ward sister at a hospital. Three sons were born to the couple, who got divorced in 2008 after parting ways in 2004. He wed Celia Walden, a journalist and the offspring of former Conservative MP George Walden, in June 2010. Walden gave birth to a daughter on November 25, 2011, making this her first kid and Morgan’s fourth.

Net-worth

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Morgan has a $20 million net worth. However, Morgan asserted in his March Daily Mail column that he was worth 250 million pounds, or $346 million in American currency. He credited a chunk of his wealth to his stock holdings in ITV, the broadcaster of “Good Morning Britain,” where he previously served as host.

Regardless of which net worth estimates you accept, it’s difficult to know, but without a doubt, his six-year stint on “GMB,” where he earned 1.1 million pounds yearly, or more than $1.5 million in U.S. currency, helped him build a comfortable fortune.

As the anchor of “Piers Morgan Live” (formerly “Piers Morgan Tonight”), which aired on CNN for three years, Morgan had a yearly salary of $2 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. His previous television appearances include “America’s Got Talent” and “Britain’s Got Talent,” both of which he judged as a public figure.

He also runs his Uncensored talk show on TalkTV.
