Meghan Markle 'Upset And Overwhelmed' After 'South Park' Takes Brutal Aim At Her And Harry

The ex-royals are considering taking legal action against the long-running animated comedy.

Never ones to shy away from controversy, South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone took several swings at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in a recent episode.

The episode spoofed the couple's wish for privacy by having them create elaborate spectacles to spread that message, like a memoir Spare, I mean Waaagh and a Netflix special.


One of the show's main characters Kyle called the husband and wife duo the "dumb prince and his stupid wife."

"They have this huge jet parked in front of my house and they keep on wanting me to buy their book."

Later, the episode shows Markle "bossing" and nagging at the prince:

"I'm sick of hearing about them! I can't get away from them! They are in my f**king face!"

In the segment below, the former royal couple made an appearance on Good Morning Canada picketing for their privacy and voicing their distaste of journalists.

The host asked the couple:

"So, you hate journalists? And now you wrote a book that reports on the lives of the royal family?"
"... so, you're a journalist."

While a handful of viewers thought the episode was pretty harsh, former Good Morning Britain host Piers Morgan tweeted it was "lethally brilliant."

Others agreed.


But one notable person did not find humor in the episode—the Duchess herself.

According to The Spectator, Markle is"upset and overwhelmed" at the portrayal of the couple, and she's "annoyed by South Park but refuses to watch it all."

In addition, GBN reported royal commentator Neil Sean confirmed the couple's legal team is investigating.

"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."

The twitterverse had a lot to say about Markle's reaction.

But many don't think she stands a chance against the satirical animated series.









Markle's reps have not responded to requests to comment as of yet.

Fox News stated the couple's legal team has not confirmed whether legal action will be taken.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
