Kate McKinnon Takes the Stage: A Hilarious Roast of Meghan Markle on SNL

In a much-anticipated return, Kate McKinnon graced the Saturday Night Live stage once again, and she didn't hold back.

The former SNL star, now known for her role in the Barbie movie, launched into a biting sketch that humorously skewered Meghan Markle amid the ongoing royal saga.

McKinnon, famous for her impeccable celebrity and political impressions, took on the character of Markle in a parody of the hit series The Crown.

The sketch kicked off with McKinnon's Markle introducing herself as Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, but cheekily added, “You can call me Princess.” From there, she unveiled her grand plan to share her version of events through a faux documentary series titled The Scheme.

It was a comedic take on her life as a royal, filled with exaggerated tales of struggles and triumphs, all while poking fun at her royal relatives.

McKinnon's portrayal of Markle was nothing short of outrageous.

She claimed to have faced racism, sexism, and relentless media scrutiny, dramatically insisting she sacrificed everything for love.

In a humorous twist, she lamented about giving up her acting career, friendships, family ties, and even her home country, painting a ludicrous picture of her life in Windsor Castle as a dungeon-like existence devoid of privacy or joy.

As the sketch progressed, Markle boasted about her supposed achievements, claiming to have inspired millions and changed the world.

She declared herself the mastermind behind a global brand, a media empire, and a humanitarian foundation.

The absurdity peaked when she proclaimed herself the most influential woman on the planet.

Not one to shy away from jabs, McKinnon's Markle referred to Prince Harry as her “little ginger puppet.” With a mix of humor and mockery, she suggested that she had seduced and brainwashed him, transforming the prince into a compliant figure who followed her every whim.

The sketch didn't spare other royals either, deriding Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles, Prince William, Kate Middleton, and Prince Andrew with sharp wit.

In this comedic roast, Markle hurled insults at her in-laws, labeling them old, boring, irrelevant, and corrupt.

She claimed they had tried to sabotage her and Harry's happiness but ultimately failed in their efforts.

It was a bold move, showcasing McKinnon's fearless approach to satire.

As the sketch wrapped up, McKinnon's Markle celebrated her newfound freedom and happiness.

She painted a picture of a life filled with love, children, and a lavish California mansion, asserting that she was surrounded by fans, followers, and wealth.

In her eyes, she had truly become the “real queen.”

The sketch quickly became a hot topic on social media, with viewers buzzing about McKinnon's triumphant return to SNL.

Many applauded her for holding Markle accountable in a humorous way, while others felt the sketch crossed the line into mean-spiritedness.

The mixed reactions underscored the polarizing nature of the royal couple's narrative.

As of now, Meghan Markle has yet to respond to the sketch, and her representatives have remained silent.

Currently, she resides in California with Prince Harry and their two children, Archie and Lilibet.
