Prince George is ridiculed in HBO satire The Prince—ii years afterward its creator best-selling Instagram posts about the young royal risked kicking Meghan Markle while she was down.

Gary Janetti's new series began streaming days ago and has already been labelled "agonizing and twisted" in the British media.

The show depicts Prince George equally an acrid-tongued brat, shows Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, slapping Prince Charles, and jokes about Prince Philip's ill health in old age.

Ingrid Seward, author of Prince Philip Revealed, told Newsweek she believed the Cambridge family would exist upset about the series.

She said: "Lampooning kids is kind of a bit low. I think they probably would be upset nigh it. Imagine if it was your kids and someone made a really nasty cartoon that your kid was nasty and spoilt."

Still, Janetti is no stranger to controversy after he drew criticism from Meghan'due south Sussex Squad online fan base for his Instagram posts.

The Family unit Guy author had a similar joke running on social media in which he posted photos of Prince George and of Meghan alongside each other with parody quotes from the future king.

One explanation read: "There is One star in this family, b****."

Another mail service showed Meghan belongings a agglomeration of flowers and carried the caption: "Those flowers look cheap. Just like yous."

At the time, he told People: "I haven't really watched [the ITV documentary], so I don't really know that much about it, but I do know it feels like they're having a rough go of it—I think that's the gist. The way I see it, in my world, she is family unit, they are family, and George rallies around family.

"Now he sees that people and the press have piled on her, he doesn't like it, and he's rallying effectually the family unit. As of at present, Meghan—he wants to take her under his fly.

Nonetheless, Prince Philip's ill health is also mocked merely months after his expiry plunged the royals into two weeks of mourning.

Regular Meghan and Harry critic Dan Wootton was amongst those to speak out against the show in his column for The Daily Mail.

He wrote: "It's a genuinely disturbing and twisted sentry that I believe could have implications for the mental health of our future king, given he is coming close to an historic period where his schoolmates and friends volition soon exist exposed to this nonsense on the cyberspace."

Seward told Newsweek: "If you lot desire to brand a evidence mocking the royal family unit there'south plenty of other targets. George does seem to be the central character.

"I think if they had i shot that might have been funny only to have a whole bear witness, that is not funny at all and I call up they [the Cambridges] would be quite upset.

"I know its a joke, I know its lampooning, I know its all those things merely its really quite unkind. Lampoon adults as much every bit you like simply not children."
