The popular show “Family Guy” has once again poked fun at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in its latest episode, revisiting a joke it made about the royal couple two years ago.
In the episode titled “Twain’s World,” which aired on July 17, characters Brian and Stewie, both voiced by creator Seth MacFarlane, go back in time. During their time-traveling adventures, the talking dog Brian compares the couple to some of history’s most infamous events.
When Stewie warns Brian about the consequences of altering history, Brian responds with skepticism, questioning the quality of historical events. He then humorously mentions Hitler and the Crusades before making a quip about Prince Harry marrying Meghan Markle.

The episode also includes a scene where Harry is shown watching the show and reacting to the joke about him and Meghan. The humor continues with a reference to their lucrative deals with Netflix and sponsored Instagram posts.
Another popular animated show, “South Park,” also joined in on the fun by satirizing the couple in an episode where they are portrayed as seeking privacy while simultaneously craving attention.

While the couple has not publicly addressed these portrayals, sources have indicated that Meghan Markle was displeased with the “South Park” episode but chose not to watch it.
Representatives for Seth MacFarlane and the Sussexes have not provided any comments on the matter.
