Couples who troll together, stay together. There's nothing like a good Twitter feud to really bring two people together.
Just ask Chrissy Teigen and John Legend.
The pair recently ignited a hilarious back-and-forth with journalist and nefarious Twitter user Piers Morgan. Morgan really enjoys Twitter feuds. He's criticized Beyoncé and Nicki Minaj. He started drama with Kim Kardashian. He openly clashed with Matt McGorry. He even made fun of David Beckham's 11-year-old son.
Now, he's finally getting a dose of his own medicine. Teigen is here to out-troll Morgan. And it looks like she's coming in first place.
It all started with a tweet from Morgan joking about the announcement of his death.
I hope people don't make me sound too perfect when I die.

No coats of sugar please.
Legend chimed in suggesting that Morgan go ahead and retire just to give us all a glimpse of what that would be like. Teigen was hot on Legend's heels, calling Morgan a talentless troll.
@johnlegend from what? trolling isn't a job (I've tried)

Things escalated quickly from there. Legend and Teigen are taking turns responding to their haters now. The clap backs are real.
@iamGnews @johnlegend i think my book has been a top 5 NYT best seller for like 17 weeks or something (started at 1) and also hit tv show

Morgan, of course, had a few choice words to share, but Teigen was ready for them. There is some major bad blood between the two now.
@piersmorgan it keeps me nice and not-racist so sure, give it a go.

@piersmorgan remember when Bruce Willis didn't know he was dead? It's like that.

I can't tweet him anymore. He has fans somehow and they...they aren't quite "all there", as they say.

Teigen is still fired up about it all, rattling off tweets like the ones below. The feud seems far from over.
my newborn just looked up at me and said "mommy, why is piers morgan so unequivocally douchy?" i didn't know what to say

Piers Morgan searches his name every 4.8 seconds.

Hi, Piers. I know you're reading this. You unequivocal douche.
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) June 6, 2016
Twitter is loving the random squabble. Especially since everyone seems to be Team Teigen.
@chrissyteigen you're my hero😂😂😂
