Prince Harry & Meghan Markle Are the Newest Victims of This Beloved TV Show

Many months since Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were made fun of by the hit animated series South Park in February, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been ridiculed yet again by another animated series. This time, however, the pair was mocked by none other than Seth MacFarlane‘s series Family Guy.

In the clip, which is receiving plenty of attention on X (formerly known as Twitter), a cartoon Markle and Harry are seen enjoying the sun in pool chairs. As they relax in swimsuits, a white-haired butler approaches the couple. “Sir, your millions from Netflix for… no-one knows what,” he says. “Put it with the rest of them,” Harry responds.

After the butler leaves, Markle’s character says, “Babe, time to do our daily $250,000 sponsored Instagram post for Del Taco.” Harry’s character then appears less than enthused. “I shouldn’t have left the made-up nonsense,” he says, shading the British royal family.

Decidedly, the scene is much less offensive than South Park‘s “The Worldwide Privacy Tour” episode which had the Sussexes traveling across the world with signs proclaiming, “Stop Looking at Us” and “We Want Our Privacy!” With that said, however, the scene is still a major dig at Markle and Harry’s multi-million dollar deal with Netflix.

As a reminder, the Sussexes have been involved in many projects with the streaming giant since signing the contract. Among the releases were their record-breaking docuseries Harry & Meghan, their inspirational series Live to Lead and Harry’s most recent release about the Invictus Games, entitled Heart of Invictus.

Although these accomplishments are all true, it’s unsurprising how their haters have only focused on the negative. “Even Hollywood doesn’t know why Netflix is paying them any money!! Hysterical!” wrote one user on X. “Everyone knows they are talentless, they get pay for their titles after that they have nothing of substance to offer,” echoed another.

On social media, however, not everyone seems to be agreeing with the scrutiny. “Family Guy does this to all celebrities,” wrote another X user. “Everybody laughs, and nobody cares.”

Whether or not the scene was justified or not, it’s unlikely that Markle or Harry will make any major statement against the series. In the February instance, for example, a rep for the couple kept their statement short and sweet when asked if they were planning of suing the show. “It’s all frankly nonsense,” a spokesperson told People. “Totally baseless, boring reports.” Chances are the Sussexes will have to just brush this one off as well.
