Colin Jost mocks Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in savage 'SNL' joke: ‘Britain demands we keep these two’
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Colin Jost reportedly made fun of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle on ‘Saturday Night Live’ during the ‘Weekend Update’ sketch with Michael Che.
Referring to the recent UK-US trade deal, the comedian said, as per Fox News, “President [Donald] 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,” he added, as a picture of the Sussexes was shown on the screen.
Harry and Meghan left the UK royal family in 2020 to start a financially independent life in the US.
Since then they have constantly blamed the British media and the palace for the issues and problems in their lives. The two even accused the royals of racism and lack of support.
Most recently, the father-of-two lost a legal battle for public-funded security protection in the UK.

Without wasting any time, he went on to give an explosive interview to the BBC, where he reportedly claimed that he “can't see a world in which I would bring my wife and children back to the UK at this point.”
“There is a lot of control and ability in my father's hand, ultimately this whole thing could be resolved through him not necessarily by intervening but by stepping aside allowing the experts to do what is necessary and to carry out an RMB,” he had added.
Harry, however, also noted that ‘there have been so many disagreements. Differences between me and some of my family. … Of course, some members of my family will never forgive me for writing a book.”
“Of course, they will never forgive me for lots of things. But … I would love a reconciliation with my family. … It would be nice to reconcile,” he asserted.
Prince William's ‘overriding concern is protecting the monarchy’
Meanwhile, as per a royal expert Hilary Fordwich, Harry’s elder brother and future king Prince William is not in favor of reconciliation.
Fordwich shared, “Over the years, the gulf has widened between Prince William and Harry, all due to Harry’s ever-public denigration of the royal family, not the least of which has been this most recent BBC interview.”
“Prince William is more resolved than ever to take action once he becomes king. His overriding concern is protecting the monarchy, which he sees as denigrated by commercial endeavors,” she added.
