Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were subjected to a savage joke by Saturday Night Live (SNL) comedians this weekend, shortly after their fun night out at a Beyoncé gig
It’s been a week of highs and lows for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who have been ruthlessly mocked on Saturday Night Live (SNL).
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who were seen out and about enjoying themselves at a Beyoncé gig over the weekend, were the subject of a topical segment on the US comedy sketch show, and host Colin Jost didn’t hold back.
While commenting on some of the biggest news stories of the week, alongside co-host Michael Che, comic Colin touched upon the UK-US trade deal negotiated between PM Sir Keir Starmer and President Donald Trump, with a brutal dig at Harry and Meghan.

Colin, a longtime host of the Weekend Update, quipped: “President Trump also announced a new trade deal with the UK that will reopen British markets for American companies. All that Britain demands in return is that we keep these two.”
It was at this point that a photograph of the Sussexes popped up on the screen behind Colin and Michael, much to the amusement of those in the studio audience.
This comes after Meghan shared a sweet Instagram post following her recent “very fun date night” with Prince Harry at Beyoncé’s “Cowboy Carter” tour in Los Angeles.

The post, filled with snaps and footage of the pair enjoying themselves at SoFi Stadium on the evening of Friday, May 9, was uploaded with the following caption: “About last night…. Thank you @beyonce and team for an amazing concert (and a very fun date night)! All love.”
The couple previously went to see Beyoncé at her 2023 Renaissance World Tour, to celebrate the 67th birthday of Meghan’s mum Doria Ragland.
As well as being fans of the Lemonade icon, it’s understood that Harry, 40, and Meghan, 43, are also pals with Bey. The music legend praised Meghan after her and Harry’s bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey, in which the mother of two alleged to have been subjected to racist treatment by members of the Royal Family.
At the time, Beyoncé posted the following message to her website: “Thank you Meghan for your courage and leadership. We are all strengthened and inspired by you.”
In one episode of the Sussexes’ 2022 Netflix documentary Harry & Meghan, Meghan revealed she had received a supportive text from Beyoncé.
She shared: “Beyoncé just texted, just checking in… I still can’t believe she knows who I am… she wants me to feel safe and protected. She admires and respects my bravery and vulnerability and thinks I was selected to break generational curses that need to be healed.”
