Prince Harry and Meghan experienced a cold reception during their recent return to England, as depicted in the latest episode of “Saturday Night Live UK.” The skit humorously targeted the couple’s Netflix deal, Meghan’s business ventures, and the ongoing controversies surrounding race within the Royal Family.
The sketch opened with Harry and Meghan visiting King Charles and Queen Camilla at a fictional Balmoral Castle set. The portrayal showed Charles expressing disapproval at their unexpected arrival, criticizing their financial decisions and post-royal endeavors, including their Netflix contract.
The satirical piece also touched on Meghan’s Netflix projects, such as the docuseries “Harry & Meghan” and her lifestyle show “With Love, Meghan,” where she promoted her brand, As Ever, featuring various products. The sketch playfully mocked Meghan’s attempt to establish herself as a lifestyle expert.
Additionally, the skit referenced the couple’s interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, alluding to the controversial remarks made about their son Archie’s skin color within the Royal Family. The segment ended with a spoof of Britain’s new prime minister, Andy Burnham, highlighting his desire to appear relatable while Harry and Meghan received attention in the background.
After returning to the UK from the US with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, the Duke and Duchess are settling in privately outside of London. The reason for their relocation remains undisclosed, but reports indicate their children have started attending British schools.
