Although there weren’t many instances where the royals intervened, the relationship did lead to some restrictions on the show. Korsh admitted, “It was a little irritating.”

One notable example involved a specific word they had planned for Markle’s character to say. Korsh explained, “Look, I’ll just say what the line was. My wife’s family, when they have a topic to discuss that might be sensitive, they use the word ‘poppycock.’”

He continued, “So, in the episode, Mike and Rachel were going to have a thing, and as a nod to my in-laws, we were going to have her say, ‘My family would say poppycock.’ And the Royal Family did not want her saying the word.”

Korsh suspected the concern was that the word could be edited down to just “c*ck.” Interestingly, the royals were okay with replacing it with “bulls**t,” which might come as a surprise.
