The Piers Morgan Uncensored host had to undergo a hip replacement as a result of the incident. His movement will be limited for an estimated 12 weeks — six of which will have him using crutches.
While sharing a “thumbs up” selfie on himself, he joked that the “New Year (was) off to a cracking start!” and “blames Donald Trump” for his condition.
It’s unclear how the injury will affect Morgan’s talk show commitments.
