The stars of TV and sport were out in force for Piers Morgan’s annual Christmas party at Kensington’s The Scarsdale Tavern on Thursday evening.
So naturally social media was littered with snaps from the party – to hilarious effect, with cricketer Kevin Pietersen calling Piers out for serving prosecco rather than champagne – however Piers took to Twitter to share his receipt and confirm he purchased an eye-popping £4200 worth of Bollinger.
As well as the prosecco banter, Piers’ Good Morning Britain co-star Kate Garraway also revealed she left the bash early on for fear of missing work – having overslept earlier in the day and missed her return to the show, while Holly Willoughby revealed she attempted to avoid a hangover by munching a cheese sandwich.
Here he is! Social media was littered with snaps and insights from Piers Morgan’s Christmas party – to hilarious effect, with cricketer Kevin Pietersen calling Piers out for serving prosecco rather than champagne which he then proved was a lie
Cricketer Kevin appeared extremely disappointed with the fact that the journalist and TV star decided to serve prosecco rather than champagne – as he shared a video and branded Piers ‘a fraud’.
He continually jibed Piers about the change in drink as he shared a caption reading: ‘Sooooo disappointed in @piersmorgan. Serving Prosecco when he invited us saying he’s a champagne boy! You Are A Fraud!’
Defiant Piers hit back at the claims as he stated: ‘I only serve Bollinger… You just can’t taste the difference.’
Ensuring he proved his point, the cheeky star took to Twitter the following morning to share a copy of his receipt which appeared to confirm that he had bought 60 bottles of Bollinger – for a price of £4200.
