Tonya Harding Goes Head-To-Head With Piers Morgan During ‘Good Morning Britain’ Interview
Written by broebling on January 10, 2018
Former Olympic ice skater Tonya Harding is making the rounds helping to promote the biopic about her life, I, Tonya, and on Tuesday morning Harding participated in an interview with Good Morning Britain. I, Tonya largely portrays Harding as a sympathetic figure who was forced into figure skating by her cruel mother and later abused by her husband, Jeff Gillooly, who helped mastermind the attack on Nancy Kerrigan. Harding said that she hoped her movie would help others, however GMB host Piers Morgan accused her of playing the victim card. “Maybe it suits you to play the victim, but the victim in all this wasn’t you, it was Nancy Kerrigan who had her Olympic dream shattered,” Morgan interjected. After he refused to drop the line of questioning, Harding attempted to end the interview. “Thank you so much I appreciate being on your show, but I think I’m going to have to say have a good night,” she told him.
