In a recent episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers, comedic powerhouses Will Ferrell and former Saturday Night Live writer Josh Harper took the stage to deliver a blistering roast of Prince Harry over his reported demands to regain his royal title. The segment has since sparked widespread controversy and debate, leaving many questioning the motives and actions of the embattled royal. 


The episode began with host Seth Meyers introducing his guests, setting the stage for the explosive exchange to come. "We have some breaking Royal news to discuss tonight, my friends," Meyers said. "As you may have heard, it seems Prince Harry is causing quite a stir across the pond as he wants his Royal name back."

Ferrell and Harper, known for their sharp wit and unapologetic comedic style, wasted no time in unleashing a barrage of scathing jokes and jabs at the Duke of Sussex. Ferrell, in his signature deadpan delivery, opened the segment by quipping "So Harry, you want your title back huh? What did you lose it in a game of Royal Bingo?" 


Harper quickly followed up, showing he was not about to be outdone by his co-roaster. "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, Destroyer of Monarchies'?"

The comedians continued their relentless roast, poking fun at Harry's perceived sense of entitlement and his ongoing feud with the British royal family. Ferrell channeled his inner Shakespearean actor, dramatically proclaiming "Oh Prince Harry, how the mighty have fallen - from the halls of Buckingham Palace to the halls of Netflix, begging for your title back."


Not one to hold back, Harper added "You know Harry, I heard you're even considering a new reality show called 'The Real Housewives of Montecito.' Keeping up with the Winders!" The audience erupted in laughter as Ferrell and Harper showed no mercy, leaving no aspect of Harry's life untouched in their skewering. 


From his high-profile move to the United States to his reported financial demands, nothing was off limits. "I mean come on Harry, you're living in a mansion in California and you're still asking for a handout?" quipped Ferrell. Harper was quick to follow up, saying "And let's not forget about those infamous Oprah interviews. Harry, I heard you're planning a sequel called 'Meghan and Me: The Revenge of the Ginger'!"

The audience's applause and laughter only seemed to embolden the comedic duo, who showed no signs of letting up in their relentless roast of the royal. Even in a moment that seemed like mock sympathy, Ferrell offered only sarcasm: "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?"


Harper, clearly relishing in pushing the comedy as far as he could, added "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."  


As the segment drew to a close, Ferrell and Harper left the audience and viewers with one final parting shot. "Remember Harry, the only thing you'll be prince of is our hearts," said Ferrell with a wink and grin. 


The comedy bit immediately went viral online, with clips of the roast racking up millions of views across social media platforms. However, it also drew considerable criticism from royal commentators and supporters of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Critics argued the comedians had crossed a line, accusing them of bullying and piling on at a time when Harry and Meghan continue to face backlash from sectors of the British Press and public. Supporters of the royal couple saw the sketch as needlessly mean-spirited.


On the other hand, free speech advocates defended Ferrell and Harper, arguing they were well within their rights to skewer a public figure through satire and humor. Comedy, they said, should be able to lampoon even the most sensitive of topics and people. 


As the debate rages online, one thing is for certain - the duo's no-holds-barred roast of Prince Harry, however controversial, generated buzz and headlines around the world. Whether intentional or not, Ferrell and Harper placed the embattled royal firmly back in the spotlight, if only for their 12 minutes of viral comedy. Only time will tell if their barbs have truly left a mark, or if this too shall pass into royal history along with the other trials and tribulations of Harry and Meghan's story.
