The ITV favourite, 54, interviewed Donald Trump, 73, during the President’s visit to the UK earlier this month. The pair have been friends since Piers Morgan was named the winner of The Celebrity Apprentice, which was fronted by Trump, in 2008. Ahead of his new documentary, Psychopath, the Good Morning Britain host remarked to this week’s Radio Times: “People call Trump a psychopath. He’s not, he’s more of a narcissist.
Asked if he is similar to his friend, Morgan replied: “I think I have, like Trump, a chilling self-belief and self-confidence.
“If that makes me a narcissist, I plead guilty,” he quipped.
“I like to be at the centre of things and I like things to be about me, so in that sense Trump and I share similar characteristics.
“I probably have a better ability to show empathy than he does,” the presenter added.
“He’s a complex character with lots of different sides to him.
“If you see him interact with his family, his kids all love him and worship him. But the main reason I like Trump is he’s been very loyal to me, privately and publicly, many times.”
