Meghan Markle 'upset and overwhelmed' after brutal South Park episode that could 'impact' Sussex brand

It seems US comedy South Park had the Sussexes in their sights for the latest episode of the satirical TV animation series and Meghan Markle has reportedly been left "upset and overwhelmed". While the couple aren't directly named, it is hard to miss the similarities between the fictional characters and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in the episode.

However, some commentators believe that Meghan's reported reaction to the cartoon, which brands the characters as "dumb and stupid", could be the "wrong response" and could "impact" the Sussex brand.

In the episode, which aired on February 15, and was entitled 'The Worldwide Privacy Tour', the fictional 'Prince and Princess of Canada' try to "find privacy and seclusion in a small mountain town". The episode continues with the prince's publicity tour for his autobiography 'Waaagh' - the cover of which has a striking resemblance to Prince Harry's memoir Spare.
