On May 19, 2018, Meghan Markle married Prince Harry, the younger brother of Prince William, and their marriage became one of the most talked-about things on the planet. The couple decided to renounce their royal titles and move away from Harry's family in order to start a life of their own. Meghan claimed that the royal family was racist and cruel to her, and she recently started a podcast where she features various guests to talk about the many inequalities she has faced in her life. During their press tour all over the world, Harry and Meghan demanded privacy, leaving many viewers confused, considering how much they willingly put themselves into the spotlight (such as their famous interview with Oprah). The popular comedy show South Park, which has been running since 1997, took a dig at the ex-royal couple and made fun of their cries for privacy. However, they weren't so happy about the portrayal.
