Why have Prince Harry and Meghan Markle 'broken their silence' over South Park?

Meghan Markle was reportedly left feeling ‘upset’ after the ‘Worldwide Privacy Tour’ South Park episode aired, which was all about the ‘prince of Canada’ and his wife that settle in the fictional Colorado town. From the prince’s ginger hair and beard to his wife’s pink outfit and hat that resembled Meghan Markle’s outfit at Trooping the Colour in 2018, the similarities between the fictional characters and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were more than a few.

According to Newsweek “Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are not suing after being mocked by South Park as their spokesperson told Newsweek claims the saga “may have legal ramifications” are “baseless and boring.” 

The article goes on to say that “U.S. royal commentator Kristen Meinzer told Newsweek it was easy to see why the couple were not taking legal action. She said “I highly doubt Meghan and Harry are suing a satirical cartoon that famously ridicules everyone.”

When it comes to whether Meghan Markle and Prince Harry will move on from South Park to attend the Coronation of King Charles on May 6, the couple still hasn’t confirmed if they will be coming. According to Sky News Australia, “Former BBC Royal Correspondent Michael Cole says King Charles has “played a blinder” in his handling of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle amid his upcoming coronation.”

Michael Cole went on to say the following to Sky News Australia host Paul Murray: “He’s (King Charles) made it clear from the very beginning that his youngest son, and his youngest son’s wife, are perfectly welcome at the coronation.”

“And of course that puts the ball in their court-they have to decide, if they decide they don’t come it will make them look a little petty and mean-spirited.”

According to reports, about 2,250 people will be invited to King Charles’s Coronation, with seats reserved for NHS workers and charity representatives.
