has fired back after claimed to have given him Covid.
Earlier this week the TalkTV presenter announced he was going to have to broadcast his Uncensored show from home .
At the time he shared a photo of his positive test on social media, explaining that while he was, he was pushing ahead with plans to front his programme.
However almost immediately he was , many of whom he’s taken aim at and questioned their claims about the vaccine.
But Piers, 58, has now also found himself in the cross-hairs with the 36-year-old controversial influencer, who was .
Sharing an old photo of Piers in a hospital bed, Tate captioned his post: ‘Hope the vaccine helps you recover from Covid.’
Not missing his chance to clap back, Piers responded.
‘Thanks for your concern, Andrew. Ironically, if I’d had another covid booster I wouldn’t have caught the damn thing again and wouldn’t be feeling so rough.
‘That’ll teach me for listening to ill-informed anti-vaxx imbeciles on the internet…!
He later shared a photo of Tate standing topless in front of a mirror and made a joke about him being afraid of needles.
When also asked by a follower if he would get into the ring with former boxer Tate, Piers said he only ever did so with ‘real fighters’.
Clearly unimpressed, Andrew attempted to have the last word and claimed to have been the one to have made Piers unwell.
‘I gave you Covid. I have no vaccines and wore no mask. I did it.’
He added: ‘I of course suffer zero symptoms because I am too sexy and rich.’
The back-and-forth between the two men comes after Piers recently interviewed Tate and called him out for ‘misogynistic’ comments previously directed at Amanda Holden.
Tate has previously commented on a photo Amanda shared to Instagram of herself in a bikini.
He said: ‘You are a wife and a mother and youre [sic] far past a teenager. There is no need for this post.’
In their exchange, Piers told Tate Amanda was a ‘very good friend of mine’ and described the photo as ‘harmless’ and ‘extraordinarily beautiful’.
He , with Tate shouting over him – as he had done all through the interview – ‘it’s not misogynist.’
Tate then launched into a rant about how over the age of 50, ‘any woman should not be interested in thirst trapping on Instagram.
‘I think she has bigger responsibilities; I am sure she is a very intelligent lady … and I think she could do things more interesting than standing around trying to thirst trap on Instagram like she is 18.’
He went on to claim he wasn’t insulting her and was instead ‘reminding her of her worth, because as a feminist, we all believe in women empowerment’ and that ‘taking your clothes off for men on Instagram is not empowering…modesty is empowering for a female’.
Uncensored airs weeknights from 8pm on TalkTV.
