South Park Pokes Fun at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in Latest Episode

The latest episode of South Park has caused quite a stir, as the popular animated show takes aim at and once again.

In the episode, Trey Parker and Matt Stone use a fictional Prince and Princess of Canada to mock the couple, with references to a number of recent scandals.

One of the most notable references is to the infamous candle scandal that occurred at the late Queen's funeral.

During the funeral, Meghan was almost completely obscured by a giant candle, leading some viewers to believe that it was deliberately placed there to snub her.

The South Park episode features a similar scene, with a candle in clear sight as the fictional Prince and Princess of Canada walk into a funeral service.

While some viewers may have missed this reference, eagle-eyed fans took to Twitter to point it out.

However, this is just one of many jokes and references throughout the episode, which also spoofs the late Queen's funeral using fictional Canadian versions of the royal family.

The episode sees the Prince and Princess of Canada, aka Harry and Meghan, being booed by the rest of the royals because they've been bashing the Canadian monarchy.

As they walk down, the candle is visible in the background, adding to the humor of the scene.

Of course, this is not the first time that South Park has taken aim at the royal couple.

In the past, the show has mocked their decision to step back from royal duties and move to North America.

Despite the humor, there are serious questions about where the couple will fit in at future royal events.

With King Charles III set to be crowned soon, royal expert Victoria Arbiter has predicted that officials will likely follow past precedent when it comes to seating arrangements.

While Harry is the King's son, there is still a seating hierarchy to consider, especially since he and Meghan are no longer working royals.

It remains to be seen where they will be placed at the coronation, but it's likely that tradition and protocol will be followed.

Overall, the South Park episode is a humorous take on recent events in the royal family, including the infamous candle scandal.

While some viewers may find it offensive, others will appreciate the show's irreverent humor and willingness to poke fun at even the most serious of topics.

As for Harry and Meghan, they will have to navigate the complex world of royal protocol and hierarchy as they continue to carve out their own path outside of the traditional royal fold.

Whether they attend the coronation or not, it's clear that they will always be a topic of conversation and a source of endless speculation for fans and critics alike.
