Piers Morgan has signed a new two-year deal with ITV, according to one report.

The contract, said to be worth £2.6m, will cover 12 new episodes of 'Piers Morgan's Life Stories', according to a report in The Sun.

However, Morgan reportedly will not return as a judge on 'Britain's Got Talent'.

The contract comes shortly after CNN confirmed that Morgan will replace Larry King on the network.

"ITV are mad keen on Piers and he has told them he can fit in his 'Life Stories' show around his new CNN gig," a source claimed.

"He can't do 'Got Talent' though, so he's had to give that up, but I think he knew he probably wasn't going to get asked back next year anyway. But he will be doing 'America's Got Talent', so he'll still have his fair share of idiots."
