Kate Garraway's Life Stories (formerly known as Piers Morgan's Life Stories until 2021 and also known as just Life Stories) is a British television chat show on ITV, presented by Kate Garraway and was formerly presented by Piers Morgan. Recorded in front of a studio audience, each episode is devoted to one celebrity guest. Episodes are filmed at Television Centre (although they were previously made at Teddington Studios and The London Studios) between one and two weeks before being broadcast on television. On 21 October 2021, it was confirmed that Morgan was leaving the show and would be replaced by Kate Garraway, his final guest.
