Journalist and broadcaster Piers, 59, left the ITV programme in 2021 when he caused controversy with viewers and divided the nation.
Throwing a huge party ahead of Christmas next week, Piers invited many of his friends and former colleagues to the shindig.
Meteorologist, scientist, and star of GMB Laura Tobin took to Instagram to share a selection of snaps from the night, with her writing a caption alongside the post which read: “It’s not Christmas until @piersmorgan has his Christmas drinks.
“A rare outing, on a non-school night for team GMB!”
In the first snap, Laura could be seen grinning beside Piers and several other GMB stars.
Also seen in the snap were Susanna Reid, Kate Garraway, and Charlotte Hawkins.
The second snap that Laura shared saw Piers posing with the ladies once again, while the third was of Susanna, Laura, and Charlotte beaming together.
Richard Madeley was also in attendance, with the GMB star seen in a selfie with Laura and Charlotte.
Laura concluded her carousel of snaps and videos with a short clip of her clinking champagne glasses with her pals.
‘BRING PIERS BACK’
“Bring him back x,” penned one fan underneath the post.
“Bring @piersmorgan back,” echoed a second.
A third person then wrote: “Looks a great evening all looking wonderful. I do miss Piers. Where’s @robrinder? @adilray Merry Christmas to you all.”
“Lush so glad he’s out with you guys x legend x,” said a fourth.
While others weren’t as pleased to see Piers, with one writing: “Please don’t associate with him….”

DEPARTURE FROM GMB IN 2021
Pier’s departure from GMB came about in 2021 after his comments about Meghan Markle were scrutinised.
While on air after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle sat down with Oprah Winfrey for a tell-all interview, Piers said he didn’t believe the Duchess of Sussex’s claims.
Meghan made allegations of racism in her bombshell interview, and Piers didn’t agree with what the Duchess had to say.
Piers’ comments sparked more than 50,000 complaints to broadcasting watchdog Ofcom.
The watchdog later ruled the comments did not break the rules, but Piers never returned to GMB, with him making a swift move over to Talk TV and getting his own show titled Piers Morgan: Uncensored.
After his exit from GMB, Piers spoke out online and said: “You shouldn’t be shamed or vilified or cancelled for having an opinion, unless you genuinely are spewing hateful bigoted stuff.”
He also added: “I thought the whole thing was a farce and I’m delighted that actually, as a result of the farce, we’ve ended up with a whole network which is now dedicated to preventing that kind of farce from recurring.”
