The skit, part of the latest episode, features cartoon characters of Harry and Meghan lounging next to a pool. A butler enters the scene, handing the couple a handful of cash. The couple then proceeds to talk about their financial status, with the Duchess’ character telling her husband that it’s time to make their daily Instagram post.

The episode pokes fun at Harry and Meghan’s multi-million-pound deal with Netflix after they stepped down as working members of the royal family, Express UK reports.

Sources close to the couple told the Mirror that the episode was an “outrageous slur” and “unfair.” An insider tells the publication Harry and Meghan feel like they “are not being taken seriously by people.”

THE COUPLE IS REPORTEDLY IN ‘PANIC MODE’

“Meghan said she won’t be humiliated like this and is desperate for a solution. They’re in full panic mode,” the source told the publication.

“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,” another source to the Sussex’ tells Closer Magazine.

Meghan reportedly believes the only way to save their brand is for the Duke to “swallow his pride and beg for his family’s forgiveness,” the source tells the publication.
