Piers Morgan Forgets He Used To Love J.K. Rowling, Ends Up Eating His Words On Twitter

Piers Morgan and author J.K. Rowling have an ongoing beef on Twitter. And if you're asking what kind of person would have a beef with Rowling, take a look at this litany of unpopular opinions of Morgan's.

So when the beloved of author one of the world's most popular book and movie franchises gets on your case, people are going to notice. Which is what happened when Rowling pointed out how happy she was that Morgan was chewed out live on air.

Which lead to a bit of a back-and-forth between her and the host.

So @jk_rowling loudly backed Ed Miliband, Remain & Hillary.
Takes some wizardry to be so wrong so often. ?

And Rowling calling Piers out for his support of Donald Trump.

.@piersmorgan If only you'd read Harry Potter, you'd know the downside of sucking up to the biggest bully in school is getting burned alive.

Along with reminding him that her writing beat out Piers' for the British Book Awards.

It all came to a head when Rowling posted a glowing review of herself as one of the world's most influential people.

Just been sent this! Could the writer let me know who he is? I'd love to thank him! #Valentines pic.twitter.com/OQtbxPD6AL

The problem is, it could very well have been a trap that Rowling laid for old Piersy boy, or a tongue-in-cheek joke.

Because Morgan pounced on the opportunity to call Rowling out for "humble bragging". The only thing is, he's the one who penned all the Rowling praise.

Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. He doesn't realise. This is the best day of my life. pic.twitter.com/fl0lFPHXf5
