Paramount is remaining tight-lipped about calls for the upcoming new series of South Park to feature an episode of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.
Fans of the satirical cartoon series roared with laughter when the royal couple were depicted on an episode titled ‘The World Wide Privacy Tour’ in February 2023.
It ridiculed Meghan and Harry’s demands for privacy while on a publicity blitz for the prince’s autobiography ‘Waaaagh’ – a dig at Harry’s memoir Spare.
The cartoon prince and princess carried banners emblazoned with the ‘Respect Our Privacy’ slogan they shouted at anyone who looked their way.
Now, viewers are hoping for another instalment poking fun at them, citing the delivery ward twerking video posted by the Duchess earlier this month as perfect reference material for creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone.
On social media site X, fans made a call-back to ‘Respect Our Privacy’ line in response to reposts of Meghan’s twerking clip.
One said: ‘What about this isn’t 100% South Park Fodder???!!!!! Bring on the “Respect Our Pregnancy” episode!!!!!’
Another fan pitch for the episode simply said: ‘Meghan Markle “Twerking Respect our Pregnancy” Movie.’
Others speculated producers are already creating storyboards for the ‘projected’ episode.
Meghan addressed the viral video she shared of herself dancing in a bid to induce labour this week in an upcoming podcast with Dragons’ Den star Emma Grede, preaching she can finally ‘share her authentic life’ on ‘her own terms’.
If the creators do decide to delight their audience with a ‘Respect Our Pregnancy’ episode, they might want to brace themselves for some more backlash from the couple.
After ‘The World Wide Privacy Tour’ aired, insiders claimed the Duchess of Sussex had been left ‘upset and overwhelmed’ by the satirical portrayal.
The source told The Spectator the Duchess was ‘annoyed by South Park but refuses to watch it all.’
At the time, rumours swirled of apparent plans by the Sussexes to sue the cartoon’s creators, with Royal commentator Neil Sean telling Fox News that representatives for the pair were watching the series closely for any more attacks.
But Harry and Meghan swiftly shut them down through their spokesperson who blasted the claims as ‘boring and baseless’.
It’s not the first time people have called for another episode aimed at the Duke and Duchess.
In March, royal fans called for a fresh instalment following the debut of Meghan Markle’s latest Netflix show With Love, Meghan, given the lifestyle series bore all the hallmarks of a South Park send-up.
One person wrote on X: ‘@SouthPark we need you, we need you now to do another laughable sketch on this joke of a couple!’
Another chimed: ‘There is so much comedy gold being generated from Meghan Markle’s ridiculous ‘teasers’ for her show, and these stupid interviews. I have to think @SouthPark is where the real money is going to be made.’
While a third added: ‘Do a sequel to Worldwide Privacy Tour. Call it Worldwide Disaster Tour to mock Harry and Meghan’s wildfire visit.’
A fourth said: ‘Im watching @SouthPark world wide privacy tour they gotta make one about the ingiftus [sic] games & the recent disaster tourist accusations.’
And one said: ‘i don’t understand why anyone would tune into this show. MM trying so hard. she just loves the camera. South Park got it right with the Harry & Megan privacy tour.’
