Del Taco has responded to a savage Meghan Markle and Prince Harry dig made on Family Guy.
The animated cartoon series Family Guy took a swipe at the Duke and Duchess of Sussex over their partnership with Netflix.
The controversial programme mocked the Sussexes' lucrative deal with the streaming giant in a scene that has gone viral.
In the cutaway, cartoon depictions of Meghan and Harry are lying in swimwear beside a pool as a butler approaches.

The butler then hands the Duke of Sussex a pay cheque.
He tells Harry: "Sir, your millions from Netflix for... no-one knows what."
The royal replies: "Put it with the rest of them."
Meghan's phone then buzzes with a notification.

The Duchess of Sussex tells her husband: "Babe, time to do our daily $250,000 sponsored Instagram post for Del Taco."
Harry, while staring off into the distance, responds: "I shouldn't have left the made-up nonsense".
Del Taco posted on X in response to the Family Guy episode: "Harry & Meghan we are still waiting for your post to go up today plz."
Fans of the fast food chain praised the firm for seeing the funny side of the dig.

One wrote: "I’m going to @DelTaco today just because they made me laugh."
However, Family Guy's Del Taco joke did contain a glaring error.
Meghan Markle does not have an Instagram account despite the Family Guy reference to making a sponsored post on the platform.
Harry and Meghan previously shared the Instagram account @SussexRoyal but it was shut down in 2020 after they decided to step down from the Royal Family.
