PIERS MORGAN was forced to wait two years but finally got his revenge on Jamie Vardy and wife Rebekah.
Arsenal recovered from 1-0 down to thump high-flying Leicester 3-1 at the King Power Stadium on Saturday.

Arsenal finally beat Leicester after going four Premier League games without a win against them
So often the Gunners' bogey team, the Foxes had been unbeaten against the North Londoners since October 2018.
That run included FOUR Premier League games against Arsenal, with Leicester winning three of those.
After the first of those four matches, a 3-0 win in April 2019, the Vardys poked fun of famous Gooner Piers on Twitter.
The Foxes frontman tweeted, 'Hi @piersmorgan' complete with a waving and 'zany face' emojis.
Wife Rebekah also chimed in, tweeting, 'You alright hun @piersmorgan', as well as a cry-laughing emoji.
Having waited almost two years to get his revenge, Piers took to Twitter immediately after the Saturday lunch-time win.
Quote-tweeting both of the original tweets, Piers tweeted near-identical replies, just swapping out his own handle for the Vardys'.
Earlier in the day, Piers was forced to eat his words after slamming Arsenal's defence following Leicester's early opener.
FFS. 🤬🤬🤬

HORRIBLE defending. #LEIARS
FT: 1-3. Superb performance by Arsenal, totally vindicating Arteta's team selection & making me look a complete numpty. Great to see Pepe & @willianborges88 really turn up today. Congrats @m8arteta - bold decisions, well rewarded. pic.twitter.com/qSTQmETsMv

After just six minutes, the Foxes pounced on a some sloppy defending from Granit Xhaka and Willian to take the lead.
Piers quickly opened Twitter to write, 'FFS. HORRIBLE defending', as well as a few expletive emojis.
But after the game, he admitted he'd been made to a look a 'complete numpty'.
Piers tweeted: "Superb performance by Arsenal, totally vindicating Arteta's team selection & making me look a complete numpty.
"Great to see Pepe & @willianborges88 really turn up today.
"Congrats @m8arteta - bold decisions, well rewarded."
