An attorney representing Jay Z and Beyonce denied sending a cease and desist to Piers Morgan, host of “Piers Morgan: Uncensored.”

On Tuesday, Morgan apologized to Shawn “Jay Z” Carter and his wife, Beyonce Knowles Carter, for inviting controversial R&B singer Jaguar Wright on his show as a guest.

Wright made salacious comments about the power couple that were considered slander and not based on facts.

Wright has made a name for herself by spreading malicious gossip about celebrities over the years.

Many were surprised when Morgan invited Wright on his show to discuss the Sean Combs case.

The attorney for the Carters clarified that he did not send Piers a cease and desist. He said he sent Morgan an “ultimatum.”

Via TMZ — The Carters’ attorney, Alex Spiro, joined us on “TMZ Live” Wednesday and we asked him about Jay and Bey’s response to Piers’ show ‘Uncensored’ broadcasting an interview with Jaguar Wright, who claimed the couple had more “victims” than Diddy.

Alex says Piers was exploiting the rumor mill by allowing these false allegations to hit the airwaves … and he says he gave Piers an ultimatum … remove the claims and apologize, or face a court order to take the interview down.

Jay and Bey’s attorney says Jaguar’s allegations are demonstrably false, and Piers should never have allowed the claims to make it on the show, blasting Piers as an irresponsible so-called journalist.

Alex says Piers didn’t just harm the Carters here … he also drowned out the voices of real victims.
