Nick Jonas didn’t hold back during his recent appearance on *The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon*, openly mocking Prince Harry and Meghan Markle following King Charles’s final decision to sever their remaining royal ties. The audience erupted in laughter as Jonas, known for his sharp wit, delivered a brutal takedown of the couple’s latest misfortunes.
What once seemed like a fairy tale escape from the monarchy’s constraints has now turned into an embarrassing downfall. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex find themselves at the center of ridicule, largely due to their own actions. Jonas, never one to shy away from bold remarks, took center stage and wasted no time roasting the couple. With a smirk, he likened their current situation to "two reality TV contestants who lost the final round but still demand the grand prize." Fallon, usually diplomatic, struggled to contain his amusement as the audience burst into laughter.
Jonas didn’t stop there. He went on to compare their decline to that of a Hollywood starlet desperately clinging to fame, quipping, "You can only milk the victim card for so long before people stop buying tickets to the show." His comment struck a nerve, especially given the couple’s relentless media appearances portraying themselves as misunderstood and mistreated.
The timing of Jonas’s mockery couldn’t have been worse for the Sussexes. King Charles’s decision to sever all official ties with them was a definitive statement that their time within the royal fold is permanently over. There are no more honorary military titles, no more patronages, and no more royal engagements—just the stark reality of being completely cut off from the institution they once tried to manipulate to their advantage.
The King’s move was a long time coming. After their continued attacks on the monarchy through high-profile interviews and controversial tell-all media ventures, there was no room left for negotiation. Their actions were no longer just an inconvenience—they were an outright insult to the very institution they once vowed to serve.
Despite branding themselves as private individuals, their constant media presence tells a different story. Their desperation to remain relevant has led them to latch onto Hollywood elites and activists in an attempt to cement themselves as influential figures. However, instead of being taken seriously, they have become the punchline of jokes among comedians and celebrities alike.
Jonas’s brutal takedown was just the latest example of public figures ridiculing them. Last year, *South Park* aired an episode mercilessly mocking their so-called demand for privacy while simultaneously seeking attention. The message was clear: the world is growing tired of their never-ending spectacle.
For Meghan, the dream of becoming Hollywood royalty has been shattered. Once hopeful for a career resurgence, she now faces rejection at every turn. Major studios are keeping their distance, brands are hesitant to collaborate, and A-list celebrities who once embraced her are now steering clear. The reason? Her reputation. The narrative she has spun no longer holds weight. Hollywood, a cutthroat industry, has little patience for those who constantly play the victim without delivering real substance.
Even Netflix, which previously signed the couple in a multi-million dollar deal, is reportedly reconsidering its commitment to their projects. While Harry and Meghan continue to push their version of the truth, the world has moved on.
Meanwhile, the British public has shown overwhelming support for King Charles and Prince William, embracing the stability and dignity they bring to the monarchy. Across the Atlantic, even Americans who were once fascinated by the Sussexes’ story are beginning to see through the facade. Their endless complaints have lost their impact, and the sympathy that once shielded them from criticism has evaporated. Now, they are left with nothing but a dwindling audience and a reputation beyond repair.
