Harry and Meghan ‘annoyed’ over South Park episode as they’re ‘taking it out on each other’

The episode poked fun at the couple

| Updated:

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle recently faced ridicule on South Park, and reports claimed it caused ‘upset’ between the couple.

However, a rep has shut down these claims.

The episode of the animated sitcom, titled World Privacy Tour, poked fun at Meghan and Harry as they moved to the fictional town.

The episode sees cartoon characters of the couple appearing on ‘Good Morning Cananda’ and holding up signs while chanting: “We want privacy, we want privacy!”

The characters sit on the US morning show as Meghan says in an extragrated accent: “It’s awesome to be here, it’s great.”

During the episode, Harry’s memoir Spare becomes ridiculed as the sitcom changes the title of the book to “Waaagh”.

I’m sure you agree darling, we can be the people we talked about being.

As Harry’s character begins talking, Meghan’s character interrupts and says: “It’s totally like you should write a book because your family is stupid and then so are like journalists.”

In another part of the episode, the characters embark on a “we want privacy” tour before moving to South Park.

As they arrive, Meghan’s character says: “If we moved here, people would think we’re really serious about wanting to be normal.”

In another moment, the character of Harry gives a speech.

He says: “I’m sure you agree darling, we can be the people we talked about being.

“What matters is what we have on the inside.”

His character then lifts Meghan’s mouth, looks inside and shouts: “Hello?” which echoes.

The episode came with a disclaimer for viewers, saying that all characters are fictional even if they’re based on real people.

The report also claimed that Harry and Meghan felt so frustrated with the show that they are now “taking it out on each other”.

The Duchess of Sussex apparently felt “upset and overwhelmed” for days.

However, a spokesperson for the couple said: “It’s all frankly nonsense. Totally baseless, boring reports.”
