Elizabeth Hurley has fired back at critics of the topless pictures she recently shared on social media.
The 55-year-old has been sharing racy snaps on Instagram and Twitter to give followers some light relief during the ongoing global health crisis, and on Monday, she posted a photo of herself topless in the snow.
"How could I resist?" she captioned two pictures, which showed her posing in the garden of her English country mansion in nothing but an open Dsquared2 faux fur coat and bikini bottoms from her own line of swimwear.
However, Hurley was slammed by online trolls for her saucy pictures, with some claiming the snaps were "tone deaf" amid the deadly Covid-19 pandemic, and Piers Morgan soon weighed in on the subject.
"Bit of snow so get your kit off? Is it not creepy? What is all this? I call this thirsty and I call it creepy... Put your clothes on," he said while hosting U.K. news show Good Morning Britain, before asking who took the photos. "Your son? Your 18- or 19-year-old son?"
The Royals star took to Twitter to address Morgan's comments, and laughed off the criticism.
"Far be it for me to suggest the tabloids get their facts muddled, but these pics were in fact taken by my 80-year-old mother. Not entirely sure if that puts minds at rest or not," Hurley wrote, alongside the topless photos.
