Morning glory is the state a male's member is in when they wake up.
Morning glory is also a drug although it grows everywhere like weeds.
Well "what's the story" is Manc for "how are thigs/what's going on" etc and the "morning glory" bit is a salacious rhyming epithet (?).
It's allegedly a response to the Onelovestory conspiracy theory.

As far as I know, the phrase comes from "The Telephone Hour" in the musical "Bye Bye Birdie."

 

Hi, Nancy!
-Hi, Helen!
What's the story, morning glory?
What's tale, nightingale?
-Tell me quick about Hugo and Kim!
-Hi, Margie!
-Hi, Alice!
What's the story, morning glory?
-What's the word, humming bird?
-Have you heard about Hugo and Kim?
Did they really get pinned?
Did she kiss him and cry?
Did he pin the pin on?
Or was he too shy?
Well, I heard they got pinned
-Yeah! Yeah!
I was hopin' they would!
- Oho!
Now they're livin' at last,
Goin' steady for good!
