Lauren Goodger has hit out at television star Piers Morgan after he slammed social media trolls who have previously attacked Gemma Collins over her weight.
Before Lauren's pal Gemma Collins' Life Stories episode took to the airwaves on Thursday, Good Morning Britain co-anchor Piers hit out at "morons" who continually troll reality personalities.
Taking to her own Instagram page, Gemma shared a clip of Piers speaking about her on Good Morning Britain alongside the caption: "Time for the social media companies to ACT NOW.
"TONIGHT 9pm @itv LIFE STORIES thank you always to @piersmorgan for being so supportive of me."
The GC continued: "Why aren't the social media platforms banning people for misuse hate and negativity? Should they be doing a lot more!!! HELL YES why do the platforms allow it ??"
However, it wasn't long until Lauren took to the comments section of the post, claiming Piers had "abused" her following a disagreement over the coronavirus vaccination in January.
A frustrated Lauren, 34, typed: "LOL so when you abused me live on TV with no facts behind what you was saying @piersmorgan… What did you think happened to me on Twitter and dms?

"I am pregnant @piersmorgan that's why I won't be having the vaccine so thanks for trolling and calling me names… but anyway you rise above the trolls @gemmacollins I'll be watching you."
Last month, before she shared the delightful news she and boyfriend Charles Drury were set to welcome their first child together, Lauren revealed she wouldn't be taking the vaccine should she be offered it.
She said it's because the vaccine hasn't "been around long enough and we don't know enough about it".
After hearing the news, Piers was left reeling, hitting out saying: "Lauren Goodger, who I'm informed is a TOWIE babe, has gone public having a go about the Covid vaccine on the day we discovered a million people in this country have the virus and we're obviously in a desperate situation.
"She said she's terrified of the vaccine and has already had Covid and didn't die, so obviously it's not a problem. She said I don't like taking medicine or antibiotics."
He blisteringly added: "Here's a picture of Lauren Goodger. What do you think she's been shoving in her face? Where does that come from, Lauren? What have you been injecting into those lips? Did you check where it came from or check what it is?
"These people are absolute half-wits. They're quarter-wits."
He later urged GMB viewers not to "listen to these imbeciles" as it will "cost lives".
