Prince Harry, Meghan Markle slam ‘savage’ ‘Family Guy’ attack as an ‘outrageous slur’: report

recent “Family Guy” episode that mocked the runaway royals.Sources close to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex claim that the pair have labeled the “savage” episode as an “outrageous slur,” according to Closer magazine.The couple found themselves the butt of the joke in a recent episode of the series, in which their money-hungry ways were mercilessly mocked by the animated show.The pair, who quit royal life in 2020, have been feeling like “they’re not being taken seriously enough by people” and that they “can’t catch a break,” the source adds.“Meghan said she won’t be humiliated like this and is desperate for a solution. They’re in full panic mode,” a source told the outlet, adding that the couple has called it an “attack from inside Hollywood.”“What’s hit them hardest and cuts the deepest of all is that it plays up the whole notion they’re self-entitled grifters or spoilt brats,” the insider added.Elsewhere, the source said that the “Suits” alum believes the only way for them to save their struggling brand is for Harry to “swallow his pride and beg for his family’s forgiveness.”The Post has reached out to reps for the Sussexes for comment.The episode in question roasted the couple over their Netflix deal, rumored to be worth $100 million, and showed Peter Griffin (voiced by Seth MacFarlane) on an adventure to become a TV extra to make money.“I’ll go it alone, just like Meghan Markle and Prince Harry,” he says.

Check out the clip below.Harry and Meghan signed a multi-year Netflix deal in September 2020 reportedly worth around $100million, although the deal’s exact worth is unknown.Following the deal, the couple have produced several shows including the documentary series Harry & Meghan, Live To Lead and 2023’s Heart Of Invictus, a project about the Invictus Games which was founded by Harry.Harry and Meghan were previously targeted by South Park in a parody earlier this year, which depicted the couple as the Prince and Princess of Canada on a “worldwide privacy tour”.Created by Seth MacFarlane, Family Guy first began in 1999 and is currently in its 22nd season.
