Prince William has 'a wry smile' over Harry and Meghan's South Park roast, expert claims

Prince William will have caught clips of the South Park episode centred around his brother, a royal expert claims.

The future King of England will have "had a wry smile on his face" as he watched the adult cartoon take aim at Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle, one guest mused when appearing on Good Morning Britain today.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were the butt of the jokes on the latest episode of South Park after a couple based on the royals were seen to move across the road from Kyle - and fans were absolutely loving it.

As the characterised couple labelled 'the prince of Canada and his wife' continued to plead for privacy in the comical skit, at one stage the prince is seen getting out his blue penis in a reference to Harry revealing he got frostbite down below during a North Pole trek.

As Ed Balls and Ranvir Singh hosted this week's final edition of Good Morning Britain today, the controversial cartoon was discussed - with one guest suggesting Harry's brother William will have caught the satirical dig at his younger sibling.

"Do you think William and Kate will be looking forward to watching this?" Ed asked.

The royal expert replied: "I think William will have been sent clips by one of his friends. William I'm sure doesn't watch South Park but I reckon one of his friend's will have seen it on social media and [sent a clip his way]."

He went on to claim: "I think he's probably seen it and will have had a wry smile on his face [when watching]."

The new episode of South Park aired earlier this week with a disclaimer saying all characters - even if they're based on real people - are indeed fictional.

At the start, Kyle's younger brother Ike appeared to be distraught over the death of the Queen. As he watched a stream of the monarch's funeral, a fake Elton John character began to sing - badly - before the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were roundly booed as they made their way to their seats.

The couple were then seen on the set of Good Morning Canada brandishing picket signs urging for privacy before the host roasted them for Harry's new book.

The eagerly anticipated episode of the show created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone and developed by Brian Graden was billed prior to airing as: "The prince of Canada and his wife try to find privacy and seclusion in a small mountain town."

Making reference to the Duke and Duchess, some real fans couldn't believe how far the hit-adult television programme had gone with some of its dialogue.

*Good Morning Britain airs weekdays from 6am on ITV and ITVX
