The Internet is a raging fire pit and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle often find themselves at the center. Their actions serve as fuel to the fire and their statements are the very flame that ignites it. But despite the fact, a survey taken after the release of Prince Harry’s memoir pointed to the contrary. This again sparked another nationwide debate about whether Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are losing their relevance. There are many ways to prove this wrong. And celebrated animated sitcom, South Park, dedicating an episode to them is one.
Yes…South Park does what South Park does…roast everybody…as they did with William and Kate at their wedding. This is nothing new, so this Harry n Meghan hysteria is a bit melodramatic. pic.twitter.com/bFeGwUBVQa

The show ridiculing them is far from being a sign of their dwindling relevance. It could be, however, a sign of their dwindling credibility, and that too is highly arguable. Moreover, it is impossible to believe that the Sussexes are losing their popularity when they are the subject of every Good Morning Britain discussion.
Fans are done with Good Morning Britain’s Prince Harry and Meghan Markle coverage
The hosts of Good Morning Britain, including Ranvir Singh, Jacqui Smith, Iain Dale, and Jack Royston woke up, got dressed, arrived at the set, and for the nth time in a row, started discussing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. This time, the panel was discussing the South Park episode. The hosts shared their ranging opinions from how it was “hard to watch” to “still think that was funny.” They further drew a comparison to how celebrities on The Simpsons are celebrated while those on other sitcoms are ridiculed.
Viewers of the program who tuned in during early morning hours to hear the news that would prove to be meaningful in their daily lives were left vexed. They took to Twitter to call out the show for being obsessed with the California-based royals.
Well done everyone at GMB, presenting a segment on the popularity of Royal family in USA without mentioning the sex offender Andrew is some achievement.

I remember when this show wasn’t an extension of the tabloids!

I just have to ask, before Meghan married Harry, what did the national news have to talk about? I get that Meghan is the current whipping girl for the UK, but what did the news have to talk about in that country before her?

Is this really newsworthy? South Park The Simpsons regularly have this type of content It’s not a big deal!!!

The viewers were mostly upset with Good Morning Britain as it is a program meant to deliver the right set of news to help the viewers get started with their day. And talking about an animated sitcom’s jibe at celebrities is not one of them.

The Sussexes still not free of media hounding
The obsession, as fans remarked, of Good Morning Britain with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle is just a drop in the sea of the massive coverage that Markle and Prince Harry receive. The couple cited privacy as one of the top reasons for dropping out of the royal institution. And three years later, they are far from achieving it.
While the couple taking on projects to tell their own narrative can be blamed, a look back at the harsh coverage long before they released their own statements will prove otherwise.
What do you think of fans’ outrage over Good Morning Britain? Let us know in the comments below.

February 18, 2023 at 11:33 pmThe Tabloid Media will not stop making news about the Sussexes. Yet they were the ones that said their popularity in UK is going down. Does everyone believe that ?? They worried about the Sussexes attending the coronation that they will upstage the King and the Cambridges but who’s to blame if they do ? The PRESS ofcourse. They will hound the Sussexes like hyenas to splash their photographs all over their tabloid magazines because, let’s be honest “it sells’. And then they will blame them for upstaging the coronation…..WHAT ?

March 14, 2023 at 6:46 pmHow very true. The news media in the UK has been and will continue to brutal and very much anti Harry and Meghan which is why this couple left the UK. People have had a tendency to believe all the smut printed about Harry and Meghan, does not matter whether it be truth or not. Sleaze sells and the British public eat it up putting money in the news media pockets.
As for the coronation it will be a damned if they do attend and damned if they don’t. To not invite Archie and Lilibet when Camilla’s grandchildren are given front and center coverage is an insult. Whether she likes it.or not Harry and Meghsn are still a Prince and Princess of the UK as are his children.
Do I believe Charles wants his son to attend the coronation ? In a word, no. He wants it to.look good for himself and Camilla. He should treat his son as a son and invite Harry and Meghan to .be on the balcony as members of the family.
I do feel that many things Harry has said has been taken out of context. Again people are quick to believe whatever the news media wants them to believe and no longer think for
themselves.
