Comedian Andrew Schultz Takes a Hilarious Swipe at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle
In a recent celebration of his marriage to food blogger Emma Turner, renowned stand-up comedian Andrew Schultz couldn't resist poking fun at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Known for his comedic prowess, Schultz playfully referenced the Sussexes in an Instagram post, adding a touch of humor to his wedding announcement.
Emma Turner, popularly known as the creator behind the Blistered Peppers food blog, often shares her best recipes and culinary adventures on her Instagram account.
Schultz, being an integral part of her blog, can be seen joining her in the kitchen during her videos.
This shared passion for food and content creation draws a parallel between Turner and Meghan Markle, who used to share her favorite recipes and restaurant recommendations on her now-defunct blog, The Tig.
The couple tied the knot in the upscale town of Montecito, California, which also happens to be the residence of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Schultz's Instagram post cleverly highlighted this coincidence, subtly asserting their presence as the new “royals” in Montecito.
In fact, Turner's wedding photo managed to surpass the Sussexes' in terms of being the most tagged Montecito photo, a small victory that brought joy to Schultz.
However, this wasn't the only instance where Schultz expressed his thoughts on the royal couple.
In January 2023, he boldly proclaimed that no one really cared about Prince Harry and his controversial tell-all book, Spare.
With his signature comedic flair, Schultz made it clear that the Sussexes were not the center of attention for everyone.
More recently, at the 2024 Globes, host Joe Coy added to the comedic jabs aimed at Harry and Meghan.
During his opening speech, Coy praised Imelda Staunton's portrayal of Queen Elizabeth II in the hit series “The Crown.”
He humorously remarked that Prince Harry was so impressed by her performance that he reached out to her for financial assistance.
The joke elicited laughter from the audience, including Netflix CEO, who found the humor in the situation.
It's worth noting that Harry and Meghan signed an impressive £80m deal with Netflix in 2020 to produce various content, including documentaries, feature films, scripted shows, and children's programs.
They have since released their explosive docuseries “Harry and Meghan” and Harry's “Heart of Invictus” documentary.
Additionally, they acquired the film rights to Carly Fortune's romantic novel “Meet Me at the Lake.”
Amid rumors that Netflix might drop the couple after Spotify ended their partnership, the Sussexes continue to explore new avenues in the entertainment industry.
Andrew Schultz's witty remarks about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle add a touch of lightheartedness to their ongoing presence in popular culture.
His playful jabs serve as a reminder that even the royals are not immune to comedic scrutiny and that laughter can bridge the gap between different worlds.
