Just when it seemed like the saga surrounding Meghan Markle couldn't get any more ridiculous, here we are again.
Reports indicate that she is furious over an upcoming South Park special that is set to mock her once more. According to insiders, Meghan has caught wind of the show's latest project, a diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) special, which will allegedly take aim at her, along with other Hollywood figures such as Kathleen Kennedy and Rachel Zegler.
Her recent Netflix project, Harry & Meghan, was already met with harsh criticism, with audiences rejecting it like an ill-fated dating app match and critics tearing apart its self-indulgent tone. Instead of reflecting on the backlash and perhaps opting to stay out of the limelight for a while, Meghan appears to have chosen a new battle—attempting to silence South Park.
If you recall, South Park already delivered a scathing satire of Meghan and Prince Harry in a 2023 episode titled The Worldwide Privacy Tour, where the couple was depicted as hypocrites demanding attention while simultaneously pleading for privacy. The parody was so sharp that rumors swirled about them considering legal action—claims that were quickly dismissed and laughed off. Now, it seems Meghan is once again on the offensive, reportedly pressuring South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone to refrain from mocking her further.
According to sources, Meghan and her team have allegedly been reaching out to South Park Studios and Paramount executives, demanding that any references to her be removed. She reportedly argues that the previous parody damaged her career and that she cannot afford another hit to her already fragile public image. However, if history has shown anything, it’s that Parker and Stone do not take kindly to threats. Whether it’s Scientology, political figures, or even Disney executives, the duo has a long-standing reputation for doubling down when faced with backlash. And Meghan? She may have just handed them comedy gold.
Reports suggest that Parker and Stone have already had tense exchanges with Meghan’s team, responding with a firm reminder that parody is entirely legal. Insiders claim that rather than backing down, the controversy has only fueled their determination to make her an even bigger focal point in their upcoming DEI special. Paramount, too, is standing firm, with speculation that they may even consider legal action if Meghan continues to accuse them of wrongdoing without cause.
So, what’s next for Meghan? If the rumors are true, she is planning a full-fledged media blitz, including interviews, podcasts, and even an appearance on The Howard Stern Show to voice her complaints. Her strategy appears to be making as much noise as possible in the hopes that someone, somewhere, will take her side. Meanwhile, Parker and Stone are reportedly gearing up for some next-level satire in the DEI special. There’s even talk of a character named “Megilla,” a monstrous caricature of Meghan that could serve as a spiritual successor to their infamous Mecha-Streisand joke from earlier seasons.
If there’s one thing South Park excels at, it’s turning celebrity meltdowns into comedic masterpieces. At this point, it’s almost impressive how Meghan continues to find new ways to keep herself at the center of controversy. Whether it’s questionable PR moves, baseless legal threats, or attempts to control free speech, she seems determined to do everything except what might actually benefit her—lying low and staying quiet. Meanwhile, South Park is gearing up for what might be their most-watched special of the year, all thanks to Meghan’s relentless insistence on making herself the main event.
