Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been relatively quiet since the release of Harry’s memoir, Spare. The couple has spoken out about the Royal Family in the past, but one thing they have consistently emphasized is their desire for more privacy. However, their actions seem inconsistent with that desire according to many observers. Recently, the famous animated adult comedy show, South Park, decided to make fun of Harry and Meghan in one of their episodes, and according to reports, Meghan didn’t take the mockery well at all.
In the episode, South Park poked fun at the couple by calling them “the prince and his wife” and referring to Meghan as a “sorority girl, actress, influencer, and victim,” among other things. This didn’t sit well with Meghan, and she was reportedly upset for days following the mocking.
It’s no secret that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s relationship with the Royal Family has been strained. While Harry has asked his family to apologize for their behavior and treatment of him and Meghan, the royals have remained silent. No official statement addressing Harry’s book or the Netflix documentary series has come from Buckingham Palace or any royal family member. It’s unclear whether there will ever be a response to Harry and Meghan’s claims.
Harry and Meghan’s quest for privacy and a quieter life has been a central topic of discussion since their move to the US. However, some argue that the couple appears to be actively seeking relevance by giving interviews, releasing a book, starring in their Netflix show, and hosting podcasts. Their actions seem to contradict their desire for privacy.
South Park has a history of mocking celebrities, and Harry and Meghan’s characters became the subject of jokes in a recent episode. The two animated characters were labeled as a “sorority girl” and “victim” for Meghan and a “royal prince, millionaire, world traveler, victim” for Harry. The episode depicted humorous scenarios, such as Meghan holding a sign that read “Do not look at us” and Harry claiming that they don’t want privacy. However, the real-life Harry and Meghan were not amused.
While Buckingham Palace and its members have chosen to remain silent about Harry and Meghan’s interviews and book, their spokesperson recently spoke up on their behalf, denying the reports that they are angry about the portrayal in South Park. The spokesperson called the reports “frankly nonsense” and “baseless.”
Despite the couple’s spokesperson’s denial, some suggest that legal action might be taken against the show. However, taking legal action could result in awkward revelations and may not achieve the desired outcome. The Palace has chosen to weather the storm quietly, avoiding public legal battles.
In conclusion, Meghan Markle’s reaction to the ‘South Park’ episode that mocked her and Harry was not a positive one. The episode has highlighted the ongoing tension between the couple and the Royal Family, as well as the public’s mixed opinions about their desire for privacy and continued involvement in the public eye. It remains to be seen how the situation will unfold, but for now, Harry and Meghan’s spokesperson insists that the reports of their anger are unfounded.
