Meghan Markle, once again, found herself at the center of a comedic jab on the popular US comedy show, Saturday Night Live (SNL).
Comedian Michael Che took a swipe at her during his segment, creating a buzz among viewers.
As Che delivered his punchline, an image of Meghan dressed as a maid appeared behind him, implying that she was being offered a meager $19 an hour to attend the coronation.
The studio audience erupted in shocked laughter, and viewers at home joined in, finding the segment hilarious.
Social media platforms were abuzz with reactions, as Vianna Flores tweeted, “This is hilarious.”
Others responded with cry laughing emojis and claps, expressing their amusement.
A Reddit user even shared the clip, commenting, “Hollywood is laughing at them.”
However, not everyone was amused by the sketch.
Meghan’s fans took to Twitter to express their discontent with the cruel and offensive nature of the segment.
One viewer criticized Michael Che, stating, “Notice how Michael Che is not funny and he never has been.
Especially tonight with his trashy cheap shot Meghan joke.
It’s not funny.”
Another accused Che of misogyny, suggesting that he views it as edgy humor.
A third viewer expressed disappointment with the episode, questioning if the writers were absent, as they found it horrible.
Amidst this controversy, reports emerged that Archie and Lilibet, Meghan and Harry’s children, were snubbed and did not receive an invite to their grandfather King Charles’s coronation.
While Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have reportedly been invited, it remains uncertain if their children will be included.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, aged three and one respectively, have not been informed about the extension of the invitation for their young ones.
According to sources within Buckingham Palace, it would be deemed wholly improper to discuss the roles of Queen Consort’s grandchildren without considering those of her husband.
As a result, Harry and Meghan will not be participating in the official balcony appearance, and several members of the royal family have expressed their lack of interest in socializing with the couple.
A close friend of the royal family revealed that Harry and Meghan have been contemplating their options regarding attending the coronation.
The possibilities include Harry attending alone or even deciding to skip the ceremony altogether.
Despite this uncertainty, the friend emphasized that Harry recognizes the significance of the coronation as one of the most important days in his father’s life.
As the SNL segment continues to generate buzz, Meghan Markle finds herself once again in the spotlight, facing both mockery and support from viewers.
The controversy surrounding the coronation invitation and the exclusion of their children adds another layer of complexity to the ongoing narrative of Harry and Meghan’s relationship with the royal family.
