In a recent episode of Saturday Night Live, Kate McKinnon stole the show with a scorching takedown of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.
The beloved SNL cast member turned host delivered a masterclass in mockery, leaving no stone unturned in her hilarious portrayal of the ex-royal couple.
Brace yourselves, because this SNL sketch was nothing short of brutal.
The sketch began with McKinnon as Markle, introducing herself with the confidence of a peacock flaunting its feathers.
“I’m Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, but you can call me Princess,” she announced, bringing back memories of her humble beginnings.
From there, the audience was taken on a rollercoaster ride through a world where Markle’s life was depicted as a Shakespearean tragedy.
According to McKinnon’s interpretation, Markle had to endure the horrors of racism, sexism, and relentless media scrutiny.
She sacrificed her acting career, severed ties with friends and family, and even left her homeland behind.
The sketch also revealed the shocking revelation that Markle was supposedly living in a dungeon at Windsor Castle.
Who knew being royalty could be so dreadful?
But that’s not all.
Markle’s character in the sketch made grandiose claims of accomplishments.
She wasn’t just a duchess; she saw herself as a savior of humanity.
According to the sketch, she inspired millions, changed the course of history, and built a global empire to rival the Kardashians.
In McKinnon’s portrayal, Markle became the most influential and powerful woman in the world, overshadowing even Oprah.
Move over, because there’s a new queen in town.
And let’s not forget about poor Prince Harry.
McKinnon’s Markle depicted him as a hapless puppet with the intellectual prowess of a cabbage.
She seduced, brainwashed, and controlled him, leading him to give up everything—his title, his family, and even his country.
Markle certainly knows how to make an impression.
But the sketch didn’t stop there.
It took aim at the rest of the royal family as well.
Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles, Prince William, Kate Middleton, and even Prince Andrew were mercilessly ridiculed, portrayed as corrupt and irrelevant old-timers desperately trying to hinder Markle and Harry’s happiness.
The bitterness was palpable.
The grand finale of this SNL spectacle was McKinnon’s Markle declaring herself the true queen, living a life of luxury in California with her adoring husband, two adorable children, and a mansion rivaling Versailles.
She boasted about having countless fans and an abundance of wealth.
Talk about a humblebrag.
Unsurprisingly, this SNL sketch sent social media into a frenzy.
Fans praised McKinnon’s biting humor, while critics questioned if it went too far.
As for Meghan Markle herself, she remained noticeably silent on the matter.
Perhaps she’s too busy enjoying her millions and plotting her next move?
In the end, this SNL sketch was all in good fun, right?
After all, who doesn’t love a celebrity roast every now and then?
And let’s not forget, if you can’t laugh at yourself, who can you laugh at?
Meghan and Harry, take a bow, because this SNL skit has definitely made its Markle.
