South Park’s Worldwide Privacy Tour Takes Aim at Meghan Markle and Prince Harry
The latest episode of South Park has left many viewers in stitches as it takes aim at the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in a spoof called the Worldwide Privacy Tour.
The cartoon fictional chat show named Good Morning Canada hosts the couple, who hold up placards that read, “We want our privacy, stop looking at us.”
The South Park team is famous for its irrelevant take on popular culture and this episode is no exception.
In the episode, the chat show host grills Prince Harry about his book, Wag, which closely resembles his real-life memoir, Spare.
The host accuses the prince of becoming a journalist in his own right, despite having once claimed to hate them.
The prince interrupts the host, bemoaning the attention that comes with being a royal.

The host, however, argues the couple does not want privacy at all.
The prince and princess storm off the set.
The rest of the episode sees the couple relocate to South Park, where they become neighbors of the main character, Cal.
The episode pokes fun at the Sussexes, attempting to escape the media, enjoying normal life with Cal, referring to them as the dumb prince and his stupid wife.
While the episode has left many viewers in stitches, not everyone is happy with the portrayal.
Piers Morgan, controversial journalist and former host of Good Morning Britain, is among those who have praised the episode, tweeting a clip of the cartoon and calling it lethally brilliant, stating it reflects how most Americans feel about the couple.
However, some Twitter users called him out, asking whether he would similarly endorse an episode that parodies Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding.
Despite the mixed response, it's clear South Park continues to push boundaries with its no-holds-barred approach to comedy.
The show has a long history of lampooning public figures, and it is unlikely it will stop any time soon.
As for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, it remains to be seen whether they will respond to the latest portrayal or simply brush it off as yet another example of the media's obsession with their private lives.
The worldwide privacy tour aired on Wednesday and will air on the UK Comedy Central at 10 pm.
The episode has sparked a debate among viewers about whether it is fair to portray the couple in such a way.
Some argue that it is just harmless fun, while others believe it is disrespectful and inappropriate.
Despite the controversy, South Park remains one of the most popular and influential shows on television.
Its unique brand of humor has won it millions of fans around the world, and its creators are not afraid to tackle controversial topics head-on.
Whether you love it or hate it, there is no denying that South Park is a cultural phenomenon that has had a major impact on popular culture over the past two decades.
Its latest episode is sure to be talked about for weeks to come, as fans and critics alike debate its merits and drawbacks.
In conclusion, South Park's Worldwide Privacy Tour takes aim at Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, and while it has left many viewers in stitches, it has also sparked controversy and debate.
Whether you love it or hate it, there is no denying that South Park continues to push boundaries with its no-holds-barred approach to comedy.
