What’s up?
It’s Sussan Mourad here with Clevver News and Ryan Reynolds just poked fun at Prince
Harry and Meghan Markle's royal exit.
Alright, so if you’re like me and you’ve been eating up any new content you can get
during these quaran-times, you might have come across Ryan Reynolds’ hilarious new
game show “Don’t” on ABC.
The show is hosted by Adam Scott and Ryan serves as both an executive producer and commentator
on the show.
And like many of the new shows that have been coming out since the lockdowns began, this
show was filmed a few months back, but is airing now.
In the most recent episode, there was an outdated question about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle
that Ryan knew some fans would catch onto... so he added his own update poking fun at the
situation of the former Royals.
As many of us know, Harry and Megan started 2020 off with a bang announcing they were
stepping down as senior members of the Royal family and have since moved to the United
States.
Some fans even have gone as far as to think that their exit jinxed 2020.
And just in case you are a little behind on the whole royal exit saga, we’ve linked
another Clevver video up top for ya.
But like we said, the game show was filmed a while back, so host Adam Scott asked this
question during one of the segments.
“Meghan Markle went from Suits to crowns after she married into the royal family.
Before she resigned, what was her official title?
Was it A. Countess of Cambridge, B. Duchess of Wessex, C. Duchess of Cornwall, or D. Duchess
of Sussex?”
And obviously, many of us know now that Meghan stepped down from her role in the royal family,
so while they threw in the “before she resigned” line, Ryan also popped in with a cheeky voice
over.
Take a listen...
"Or E. we taped this show seven months ago."
Awkward!!
The contestants still picked the wrong answer anyway, I guess not everyone is as up to date
with the royal tea as we are.
They guessed "Duchess of Cornwall," which is actually the title that Prince Charles'
wife, Camilla, holds.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped down from their duties and even gave up their Sussex
Royal Instagram handle back in March, but they are the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Though, they have made it very clear they prefer to be called Harry and Meghan nowadays.
During his recent final round of engagements as a senior royal, Harry even asked delegates
to quote “just to call him Harry.”
So while D may have technically been the right answer on the game show, we’re still a fan
of Ryan Reynolds’ added answer E.
And fans were here for Ryan’s joke too.
This person wrote quote, “I just watched this episode and totally caught Ryan Reynolds
shading Harry and Meghan.
I thought I was the only one who caught that lol.
Even celebs are fed up with their Royal BS.”
And this fan added quote, “LMAO Ryan Reynolds is low key shady and I'm here for itttt.
These royals too dramatic.”
And speaking of Harry & Meghan, there is an update on their move to LA.
According to the Daily Star, Harry is feeling QUOTE, “lost” living in Los Angeles in
the same way Meghan did in the UK.
Royal Author Tom Quinn told the outlet that while Harry quote, “doesn't hate LA - he
is struggling to find his 'role' in the US,” and that him getting swept up in Meghan's
positive energy has always been a point of contention in their relationship.
Tom said quote, ‘'It's always been a problem since early on in the relationship, Meghan
is a dynamo, she's full of positive energy that would sweep Harry along but once the
honeymoon is over, you still have to fill the days.”
And he went on to claim that after speaking to sources close to the couple, he believes
Harry is quote “really struggling” with his living situation, and is finding it difficult
to find work.
Earlier this week veteran royal photographer Arthur Edwards also spoke out about how Harry
has changed since he met Meghan.
Arthur has been photographing Harry since the day he was born, described seeing a change
in his behavior towards the media.
He told Talk Radio that quote, “Unfortunately for the last couple of years, he has gone
completely sour.
He didn't talk to me for a year.
I've been photographing him since he was born, and it was down to her.”
Arthur added quote, “I think the moment she married Harry it was "right, let's get
out of here as quick as we can.’
I mean, it was ridiculous.”
I guess with a number of books soon to be released about the royal couple, we may then
get further insight.
