Piers Morgan taunts Jameela Jamil over Munchausen syndrome. Jameela responds

In the past, the star opened up about having congenital hearing loss and labyrinthitis. She spoke about her hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome which causes loose joints, joint pain, and scar formation. She also explained an incident at the age of 17 when she got into an accident, breaking several bones and damaging her spine. She said the accident ‘changing her life’.

 
The Good Morning Britain presenter Piers Morgan weighed in on a social media string. The string centered around Jamil's health claims after she came out as queer.​ On Thursday, Morgan shared an article about Jamil saying her peanut allergy had “lessened.” He tweeted. “IT'S A MIRACLE! So happy for you @jameelajamil - hope your other 1,345 virtue-signaling victimhood-craving ailments make similarly miraculous recoveries.” Jamil hit back saying: “There is no cure for you being a pointless, boring, misogynist p** sadly.”
 
In a sarcastic response, Morgan wrote: “Hi Jameela, lovely to hear from you as always, especially as you battle your latest terrible affliction, Munchausen syndrome. I hear it can make ‘victims’ angry & abusive, so I forgive you & wish you well with your treatment.” The online battle involving the actress follows the criticism she received over the announcement that she will be a host on the voguing competition show Legendary. After people criticized the show for casting a cisgender woman to host the show, Jamil revealed she was queer on Instagram. This led to people questioning if the star is speaking the truth.
