In Season 1, episode 9 of NBC’s “I Feel Bad,” which aired on Thursday, Meghan Markle fans got a special, little surprise.

After Chewey (James Buckley) reveals to his team at work that he grew up on a large property with a castle, Emet (Sarayu Blue) asks, “Chewey, are you, like, royalty?”

His response? “No, don’t be silly. No, nobility.”

This leads to Norman (Zach Cherry), later in the sitcom’s new episode, name-dropping the former “Suits” actress.

“Me and Griff [Johnny Pemberton] have been talking, and we wanna come to your castle,” he says to Chewey.

“Yes, you’ve taken dumps at both of our apartments, so it’s only fair,” Griff adds.

Norman jumps back in with, “And I know black people are allowed now because Duchess Meghan kicked down the door.”

He’s, of course, referring to biracial Markle joining the British royal family when she married Prince Harry in May.

“I Feel Bad” airs on Thursdays on NBC at 9:30 p.m. EST.
