Comedian Joe Coy Roasts Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at Golden Globes

At the recent Golden Globes ceremony, comedian Joe Coy delivered a hilarious joke that had the audience in stitches.

Known for his sharp wit, Coy didn't hold back in his debut as the host of the annual awards show.

The night celebrated the achievements of talented individuals such as Robert Downey Jr. from Oppenheimer, Ali Wong and Stephen Yeun from Beefstar.

As Coy took the stage with great enthusiasm, he first poked fun at Hollywood stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Bradley Cooper, and Saltburn actor Barry Keoghan.

However, it was his commentary on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle that truly caught everyone's attention.

Coy humorously highlighted that the couple will continue to receive millions of dollars for essentially doing nothing, thanks to their deal with Netflix.

“I have a deal to chill,” Coy announced, evoking laughter from the crowd.

The cameras even captured the amused reaction of Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos.

The entire room erupted in laughter, including the streaming service's chief executive.

It was evident that Coy's Sussex Grifter joke struck a chord with many.

Shortly after Coy's remarks, people began sharing their thoughts on social media.

One person tweeted, “So Harry and Meghan just got called out at the Golden Globes by comedian Joe Coy.

They've been paid multi-millions for doing absolutely nothing.

The audience laughed, and even the Netflix CEO joined in.”

Another user pointed out that the cast of the TV show Suits, which Meghan was a part of, was present in the audience during the joke.

This led them to question whether Coy was aware of this fact before delivering his punchline.

Coy's comedic jab at Harry and Meghan comes in the wake of the release of the Netflix documentary, “Harry and Meghan,” which received mixed reviews in December 2022.

The documentary showcases the couple discussing their decision to step back as working members of the royal family.

It has been a challenging year for the former royals, both personally and professionally.

While Harry's memoir, “Spare,” became a best-seller, their other ventures faced setbacks.

After signing a lucrative three-year deal with Spotify in 2020, worth £18 million, their podcast titled “Archetypes” was dropped less than a year later.

The couple had initially signed on to host and produce several podcasts, but their show didn't receive a second season, leading to Spotify's head of podcast innovation and monetization, Bill Simmons, labeling them as grifters.

Furthermore, the couple's charity, Archewell, suffered a significant decline in donations.

Their annual report revealed a staggering plunge of nearly £10 million in donations in just one year.

In 2022, their income tax return showed donations of only £1.6 million, compared to the £10.3 million they received in 2021.

As we enter a new year, critics hope that Harry and Meghan will devise a new game plan moving forward.

Royal commentator Michael Cole highlighted the need for the couple to find fresh perspectives and avoid repeating criticisms of their own family.

The source shared that Harry and Meghan are looking to go in a different direction, refraining from speaking negatively about the monarchy.

Despite perceptions of being snubbed in the entertainment industry, the couple believes in choosing quality over quantity and being selective about the opportunities they pursue.

In conclusion, comedian Joe Coy's witty roast of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at the Golden Globes drew laughter from the audience and even caught the attention of Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos.

This light-hearted moment added to the ongoing discussions surrounding the couple's ventures, including their Netflix deal and the decline in donations to their charity.

As the new year begins, Harry and Meghan aim to move forward with a fresh perspective, focusing on quality rather than quantity.
