Piers Morgan Uncensored is joined by the family of Captain Sir Tom Moore, including his daughter and former CEO of his foundation Hannah Ingram-Moore, her husband and family treasurer Colin Ingram and their two children Benji and Georgia, for this almost two hour discussion about the controversy surrounding the family after claims of them financially gaining from the late Tom Moore’s death and the foundation set up in his name.

Piers questions Hannah about taking a salary for running the foundation as CEO and she suggests in hindsight she should not have taken on the job in the first place, let alone for a salary. She still believes she did a good job running the charity, but feels the constant optics surrounding her affected the charity in a negative manner.

Piers goes on to question Hannah about receiving £18,000 from companies for presenting and receiving awards in Tom’s honour. She explains that she made sure those same people made a donation to Captain Tom’s foundation, which she later admits was only £2,000.

Finally they are questioned about making money from the books. Hannah and Colin categorically deny that when the book deal was agreed while Tom was alive, that any of the money made from them was for the foundation but instead for personal gain. After the interview, it has been revealed Tom did actually make a reference to his foundation in the prologue of his autobiography: “Astonishingly at my age, with the offer to write this memoir I have also been given the chance to raise even more money for the charitable foundation now established in my name’.
