“‘Man, I’m sorry we’ve been so hard on you….hahaha.’
“Only in Hollywood, baby.”
Many social media users took to the comments to say their view on Piers’ new friend and their chance encounter.

Jacqui1961 added: “Brilliant and unforgettable. The smiles say it all.”
While on CNN he had built a reputation for campaigns on gun control and was blamed for the slide in ratings since Larry’s retirement.
In 2014 Piers told The New York Times: “It’s been a painful period and lately we have taken a bath in the ratings.
“Look, I am a British guy debating American cultural issues, including guns, which has been very polarizing, and there is no doubt that there are many in the audience who are tired of me banging on about it. (sic)
“That’s run its course and Jeff and I have been talking for some time about different ways of using me.”
Piers got a gig back in England, presenting on Good Morning Britain from 2015 till 2021 when he quit after making comments about Meghan Markle.
In September 2021, it was announced that Piers would be joining News Crop as a presenter on their new television channel talkTV.
It was also announced that he would be a columnist for The Sun and New York Post.
The talk show will air in the US, US and Australia and is scheduled to launch early this year.
