Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly less than impressed with the recent “Family Guy” episode that mocked the runaway royals.

Sources close to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex claim that the pair have labeled the “savage” episode as an “outrageous slur,” according to Closer magazine.

The couple found themselves the butt of the joke in a recent episode of the series, in which their money-hungry ways were mercilessly mocked by the animated show.

The pair, who quit royal life in 2020, have been feeling like “they’re not being taken seriously enough by people” and that they “can’t catch a break,” the source adds.

“Meghan said she won’t be humiliated like this and is desperate for a solution. They’re in full panic mode,” a source told the outlet, adding that the couple has called it an “attack from inside Hollywood.”

“What’s hit them hardest and cuts the deepest of all is that it plays up the whole notion they’re self-entitled grifters or spoilt brats,” the insider added.

Elsewhere, the source said that the “Suits” alum believes the only way for them to save their struggling brand is for Harry to “swallow his pride and beg for his family’s forgiveness.”

The Post has reached out to reps for the Sussexes for comment.

The episode in question roasted the couple over their Netflix deal, rumored to be worth $100 million, and showed Peter Griffin (voiced by Seth MacFarlane) on an adventure to become a TV extra to make money.

“I’ll go it alone, just like Meghan Markle and Prince Harry,” he says.

The scene then cuts to animated versions of Harry and Meghan, lounging by a pool, when their butler comes with a stack of envelopes.

“Sir, your millions from Netflix for … No one knows what,” the butler says, to which Harry replies, “Put it with the rest of them.”

Markle then urged Harry that the pair needs to create a $250,000 sponsored Instagram post for Del Taco.

The clip ends with Harry seemingly expressing some regret over leaving his privileged life in Britain as he announces, “I shouldn’t have left the made-up nonsense.”

The jab from the “Family Guy,” which was created by writer, actor and comic Seth MacFarlane and first aired in 1999, is eerily reminiscent of recent comments made by Spotify CEO Bill Simmons, who referred to Meghan and Harry as “f–king grifters.”

This isn’t the first time the couple have been a punchline at the expense of an animated series.
