Hugh Grant hits back at Piers Morgan for branding him 'hypocrite' and 'liar'

The article discusses a public feud between actor Hugh Grant and TV personality Piers Morgan, sparked by Morgan's comments on his TalkTV show where he branded Grant a "hypocrite and liar." This backlash came after Grant criticized the British tabloid press, particularly the Daily Mail, for their invasive practices during his testimony at the Leveson Inquiry into media ethics. Morgan, who has had his own controversies with phone hacking, accused Grant of hypocrisy, pointing out that Grant had previously used the services of a private detective to gather information on his ex-girlfriend, Jemima Khan. Grant responded to these accusations via social media, defending his actions by explaining that he had hired the detective to protect his children from media intrusion, not for personal gain or to invade privacy. The exchange highlights ongoing tensions between celebrities and the media regarding privacy and ethical journalism practices.
