Fresh from being booed at the NTAs last week, Piers Morgan just picked up one of the top prizes at the TRIC Awards. The annual industry awards took place on Wednesday afternoon, with Piers having been nominated in the News Presenter category. Although the divisive former daytime star had some stiff competition from the BBC’s Huw Edwards and his Good Morning Britain co-star Susanna Reid, it was Piers who ended up going home with the TRIC Award after the ceremony. Other winners on the night included Ant and Dec – who recently beat Piers in the Best Presenter category at the NTAs – and his former GMB colleague Kate Garraway, who was the recipient fo the TRIC Special Award.
