Piers Morgan not fooled by Madonna

Piers Morgan has poured scorn on Madonna and Guy Ritchie's divorce denials, claiming that the pair have no credibility.

Tabloid reports have speculated that the couple will announce their separation in November. However, both Madonna and Ritchie have responded by issuing statements to the contrary.

Morgan revealed that he lost faith in Madonna after receiving false information from her publicist Liz Rosenberg when he was editor of The Mirror.

"Purely on the back of her firm denial, I'm going to have a few quid on a Madonna divorce by Christmas," Morgan explained.

"I remember once phoning Miss Rosenberg to ask her if Madonna was pregnant. 'No, no, no,' she insisted. 'Madonna. Is. Not. Pregnant.'

"The very next day, Madonna's pregnancy was announced on The Sun's website, with a corroborative quote from one Liz Rosenberg."

Madonna celebrated her 50th birthday with Ritchie in London at the weekend.
