In a recent episode of “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” comedic legends Will Ferrell and former Saturday Night Live writer Harper Steele took to the stage for a hilarious and biting roast of Prince Harry.
The focus of their jests?
Harry’s reported desire to reclaim his royal title, which has ignited a firestorm of debate and scrutiny regarding the Duke of Sussex’s intentions and actions.
Kicking off the segment, host Seth Meyers introduced his guests with an air of anticipation.
“We have some breaking royal news to discuss tonight, my friends,” he announced.
“It seems Prince Harry is causing quite a stir across the pond as he wants his royal name back.” This set the tone for what would become an unforgettable comedic exchange.
Ferrell, known for his impeccable deadpan delivery, wasted no time in throwing the first punch.
“So, Harry, you want your title back, huh?
What, did you lose it in a game of royal bingo?” The audience erupted in laughter, clearly enjoying the playful jab at the prince’s predicament.
Steele quickly joined the fun, quipping, “Yeah, Harry, I heard you’re demanding to be called Prince again.
What’s next?
Are you going to start insisting on being addressed as His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, the destroyer of monarchies?”
The duo’s relentless humor didn’t stop there.
They continued to poke fun at Harry’s perceived entitlement and ongoing tensions with the British royal family.
Ferrell, channeling his inner Shakespeare, dramatically proclaimed, “Oh, Prince Harry, how the mighty have fallen!
From the halls of Buckingham Palace to the halls of Netflix, begging for your title back.” The audience roared with laughter, enjoying the clever wordplay.
Steele added fuel to the fire with a cheeky suggestion.
“You know, Harry, I heard you’re even considering a new reality show called ‘The Real Housewives of Montecito: Keeping Up with the Windsors.’” The crowd couldn’t get enough, as the comedians expertly navigated the absurdity of Harry’s situation with sharp wit.
As they continued their comedic assault, Ferrell couldn’t resist pointing out the irony of Harry’s lavish lifestyle.
“Come on, Harry, you’re living in a mansion in California, and you’re still asking for a handout.
What’s next?
Are you going to start a GoFundMe page for your Netflix deal?” The audience roared once more, fully engaged in the roast.
Steele, not to be outdone, chimed in about Harry’s infamous interviews.
“And let’s not forget about those Oprah interviews, Harry.
I heard you’re planning a sequel called ‘Meghan and Me: The Revenge of the Ginger.’” The laughter grew louder, as both comedians showcased their talent for intertwining humor with current events.
In a moment of mock sympathy, Ferrell offered Harry a piece of advice.
“You know, Harry, if you really want your title back, maybe you should try a different approach.
Have you considered challenging the Queen to a game of royal chess?” The audience was loving every second of this playful banter.
Steele jumped in with another outlandish suggestion.
“Well, maybe you could try a good old-fashioned royal rap battle.
I hear ‘Prince Harry and the Rap Royals’ has a nice ring to it.” The laughter echoed through the studio, highlighting the chemistry between the two comedic stars.
