Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s royal rift has been poked fun at in the trailer for the upcoming series, The Real Housewives of London.
The cheeky dig comes as peace talks have taken place between representatives of the Duke of Sussex and Prince Charles.
In a short clip revealed during a trailer, cast member Panthea Parker proposed her bold plan to confront King Charles about his rift with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at a palace event.
In the preview released on Tuesday, Parker is shown in a car with her husband, British lawyer Ed Parker, en route to what appears to be a Buckingham Palace garden party.

"I'm going to go, 'How do you feel about Harry and what he did?'" Parker declared.
Her husband quickly intervened with a quip, appearing to read from a booklet: "It says, specifically, 'Do not ask the monarch about Harry and Meghan'."
The timing of Parker's planned royal confrontation comes amid recent reconciliation efforts between Harry and King Charles.
Senior aides from both sides held a meeting in London last week in an apparent olive branch move.

Meredith Maines, the Duke of Sussex's chief of staff and communications director, met with Tobyn Andreae, King Charles's communications secretary, after flying in from Montecito, California, on July 9.
Liam Maguire, who oversees UK press for Harry and Meghan, also attended.
Prince Harry expressed openness to reconciliation in a BBC interview in May, stating: "I would love reconciliation with my family. There's no point in continuing to fight anymore."
While several royal experts have suggested the opportunity to make amends with King Charles is there for the Duke, they suggest mending his relationship with Prince William and Princess Kate will be far trickier.

Notably missing from Sunday's peace summit was any representative from William and Kate’s team, who are thought to have been asked not to attend.
A friend of the couple suggested that development should come as no surprise to royal watchers.
"It's no coincidence that William and Catherine did not have a representative at the Royal Over-Seas League," they revealed.
The insider explained: "They were not asked to send anyone and will be treating the talks with extreme caution.

"The fact that it ended up in the newspapers tells you all you need to know," the friend told The Mail.

Comedian Katherine Ryan, 41, will host the reunion special at the series' conclusion. "Hosting The Real Housewives of London reunion show is a dream opportunity for me," she said.
