Meghan Markle has been left "upset" after she and Prince Harry were the
butts of the joke in the latest episode of South Park. The new episode
entitled The Worldwide Privacy Tour aired on Comedy Central in the US on
Wednesday and depicts the "Prince of Canada" attempting to escape the
limelight with his princess. But royal expert Kinsey Schofield pointed
out that being made fun of will not help Meghan's political ambitions.

Meghan left 'feeling embarrassed' after more details of Harry's romp
Speaking to TalkTV, she said: "South Park called her a sorority girl,
they called her an influencer, they even recreated some of those old
sexy poses she did for magazines.

"I do think this is going to upset her because let's not forget Meghan
does associate with these high-profile political figures; Kamala Harris,
Stacey Abrams.
"She's friends with Hillary Clinton.

"I do think she has bigger aspirations for herself, things like this
don't help."

The show features main character Kyle who is dismayed when he finds out
that the characters, dubbed the "dumb prince and his stupid wife", have
moved into a new home opposite his house.

A trailer uploaded by South Park Studios shows a clip of Kyle
complaining about the prince and princess's move to the neighbourhood to
Stan and Kenny whilst sat in the school canteen during lunch.

"It is seriously driving me crazy," Kyle said.

"I'm sick of hearing about them, but I can't get away from them.

Harry and Meghan to 'keep mouths shut' at coronation says expert

"They're everywhere, in my f****** face."

"Look, Kyle, we just kind of don't care about some dumb prince and his
stupid wife," Stan replied.

A clip of the episode features a scene that takes place on a chat show
called Good Morning Canada.

The couple enter the stage holding placards that read: "We want our
privacy!" and: "Stop looking at us!" whilst the talk show host
introduces a copy of the prince's book, titled Waaagh.

have a legal case? )

‘South Park’ parody of Prince Harry, Meghan Markle could turn into legal
threat, royal expert claims

COMMENTARY: Meghan Markle and Prince Harry like to think they are just
regular people, you know, you and me trying to figure a way through the
minefield of life.

We know this, simply because they were honored at the recent Ripple of
Hope Award Gala, which they picked up for racism within the Royal family
no less, Harry produced this lame joke that he and Meghan were having a
"date night," as with two children this was an opportunity to get out
and enjoy each other’s company. Then he laughed like a drain with the
audience.

This came off as a pre-rehearsed and badly executed plot to show Harry
and Meghan's fun, playful side, and my how we have missed that from
Harry, right? It flopped badly, along with the fake laugh that Meghan
offered and was so rehearsed.

Things then took a turn with U.S. chat show kings, like Jimmy Kimmel,
attacking them, and worse, making fun of the brand of Meghan and Harry.
Why? Well, according to the ex-royal’s team, it's hurtful and spiteful
and, above all, they are not in control of it.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have started to be mocked by late-night
talk show hosts.
'SOUTH PARK' EVISCERATES PRINCE HARRY AND MEGHAN MARKLE AMID 'SPARE' FALLOUT

As we saw in the dreadful Netflix docuseries, Harry, if possible, is at
least a better actor than Meghan. Mostly in the dramatic scenes with
Beyoncé calling. Remember that Oscar-winning hand throw, and that
now-infamous text from his brother, William? The way he held the phone
directly to his wife was pure theater.

So why, when this fodder is campier than a late-night Joan Crawford
movie, they can’t laugh at the recent lampooning of them with the cult
adult comedy "South Park" remains a mystery.

Harry and Meghan should and will be "very concerned" about their
celebrity status in America. After being royally laughed at by the
satirical cartoon, it shows really how far they have fallen.

The latest episode showed the "Prince and Princess of Canada," a young
royal couple who are begging for privacy while drawing attention to
themselves time and time again in a hilarious, spoof-like way.

Harry and Meghan 'South Park' spoof
Harry and Markle are spoofed on a recent episode of "South Park," where
they are referred to as the "dumb prince and his stupid wife."
The flame-haired prince and his wife, who wears the exact-same dusty
pink outfit that Meghan donned for Trooping the Colour in 2018, are
desperately plugging the prince's book - "Waaagh" - the cover of which
strongly spoofs Harry's bestselling memoir "Spare."

The episode is filled with cutting digs at the Sussexes, with the show's
star, Stan, branding their cartoon equivalents the "dumb prince and his
stupid wife," while another character, Kyle, complains about the private
jet parked outside their home.

It's beyond cruel, but again, it's also very funny, depending on your
humor. Now it appears that the ginger one, along with his wife, former
actress Meghan, are not quite laughing along with the rest of us.
According to sources close to the ex-royals, it appears that, like so
many things with Meghan and Harry, this may have legal ramifications
attached.

Their legal team are casting an eye over the episode to see what is
wrong, and what could be turned into something more sinister. This
appears to be their course of action rather than laughing it off,
enjoying the moment and showing the world that they get the joke and
understand this is how they may be perceived, and maybe, dare we say,
change . . . dare we?

Well, no, the duo are very unhappy with this, I am told via a good
source, and again one wonders why. It's harmless and will easily be
forgotten, just like that dreadful cartoon based on young Prince George,
axed after one season.

South Park episode spoofing Harry and Meghan
Harry and Meghan are reportedly not happy with the way they're portrayed
in the episode.

Now, with all royal legal threats, they start off with rumblings and
basically allude to nothing. But as we have seen with the ex-royals,
they do love a good legal fight. Ask the dumped half-sister, Samantha,
and the father, Thomas, axed for something of a mystery.

Of course, when it appeared that Meghan, here in the U.K. court, had
"forgotten" she had assisted with a dire tabloid book, it was a
"misjudgment." She had no idea and must have forgotten. You see, our
world versus Meghan and Harry’s world.

The makers of "South Park" have, as yet, received nothing, but I am told
they are aware of this and have nothing to fear, simply because they
have the legals all over this and know they could not have broadcast it
without the watertight details flattened out.

Harry and Meghan South Park split
Rather than speak out against the episode, Harry and Meghan should
embrace the jokes being made about them.
Here is some sage advice: King Charles has dreadful PR from time to
time, yet even he sees the funny side of things, never takes legal
action, and more, thanks to Camilla, has learned to laugh off dire press.

Seriously, Harry, take a leaf out of the King's book, and do the same.

Plus, admit that the whole episode was spot on, and at least has given
you free marketing feedback on just what the vast majority of your
once-loyal fan base now think of you, and maybe it's time to change?
