Meghan Markle 'upset and overwhelmed' over South Park jibes

Meghan Markle is reportedly 'upset and overwhelmed' after herself and Prince Harry were depicted in a recent episode of South Park.

The American animated comedy's recent episode was titled 'The Worldwide Privacy Tour', which aired on February 15. In a clear jibe at Harry and Meghan, a description for last week's programme references a "prince and his wife" trying to "find privacy and seclusion in a small mountain town", reports the Mirror.

While the former working Royals weren't named, it was pretty obvious who the fictional 'Prince and Princess of Canada' were based on. South Park, which first aired in March 1998, landed plenty of brutal swipes at the couple throughout the episode, where the princess, dressed in an outfit similar to the Duchess of Sussex wore during Trooping the Colour in 2018, is described as a "sorority girl, actress, influencer, victim" by another character.
