Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made headlines as they returned to the UK, only to become targets of satire on the new “Saturday Night Live UK.” The comedy sketch highlighted their current standing with the royal family, their Netflix deal, and Markle’s lifestyle brand.

The Comedic Sketch

The skit opened with actors portraying King Charles III and Queen Camilla enjoying a weekend at Balmoral. This peaceful scene quickly shifted when actors playing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle entered. The comedy performance poked fun at various aspects of their lives, including Markle’s recent Netflix project.

The fictional Prince Harry and Meghan offered Queen Camilla an ice tray as a “gift.” When questioned about their motives for returning to the UK, a humorous exchange ensued about their Netflix income.

“Don’t tell me you spent all your Netflix money already,” said the actor playing King Charles. The response from the fake Prince Harry was, “Daddy, it was $60 million! How long was it meant to last?”

Royal Duties and Current Status

Despite their return, Harry and Meghan’s royal status remains unchanged. Recently, Buckingham Palace clarified that the couple will not resume official duties. A statement confirmed, “The Duke and Duchess stepped down from representative duties and remain non-working members of the Royal Family.”

The palace emphasized that their move doesn’t alter their royal standing. “Their styles as His and Her Royal Highness remain in abeyance,” a letter stated, explaining that their work is a personal matter conducted as private citizens.

Family Life in the UK

In late August, Harry and Meghan relocated to the UK with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. The family plans to live privately outside London, and the children are set to begin schooling in September.

The couple’s return to Britain was a personal decision devoid of official royal backing. It signifies their continued focus on personal and charitable endeavors.
