So it’s probably no surprise that the long-running adult animated series is tearing into the “Worldwide Privacy Tour” being carried about by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Granted, South Park didn’t actually name Harry and Meghan. But the episode is indeed titled Worldwide Privacy Tour and centers on the visit to South Park from the Prince of Canada and his wife.
Harry and Meghan have recently said they would like more privacy, yet have been accused of sharing intimate details about their lives, anyway.

The jokes focus on the real-life tension between Harry, Markle and the media.
The episode consists of the Prince of Canada promoting his book Waaaagh, a clear shot at Harry’s actual book, Spare. The cartoon prince appears on Good Morning Canada to promote the book, carrying a placard that shouts, “We want out privacy!”
His wife is holding a sign that asks everyone to “Stop Looking at Us!”
But the host of the show says that the Prince of Canada and his wife actually seem to enjoy the attention.
“Some people might say that your Instagram-loving wife actually doesn’t want her privacy,” the host said
This is not lost on South park character Kyle Broflovski.

“I’m sick of hearing about them! I can’t get away from them!” he said. “They’re everywhere, in my f***ing face!”
Fellow troublemaker Eric Cartman added: “We don’t care about some dumb prince and his stupid wife.”
South Park, which airs on Comedy Central, is in its 26th season. Few shows, animated or otherwise, have had such a long and often glorious run.
