Painting Harry as some loser immigrant relying on his wife is not only inaccurate but also insensitive. And even if Harry were a stay-at-home dad, what's wrong with that? There's nothing funny or shameful about a man supporting his partner's aspirations. Props to Harry for being secure enough in his masculinity to embrace this dynamic. At the end of the day, Harry doesn't deserve to be mocked as some freeloading deadbeat. The joke ignores the real reasons he chose to leave royal life – his mental health struggles and his desire to protect his family. Mocking someone's immigration status or relationship dynamic is just plain wrong, royal or not.
And let's talk about the sexist undertones here. Would SNL dare to mock a female royal as some unemployed gold digger? I don't think so. It's not a good look, SNL. As a self-proclaimed Harry stan, I'm calling you out, SNL. Do better next time. Let's not punch down at someone who's already been through the wringer. Give him a break.
