    Karl Stefanovic couldn’t resist taking a swipe at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle after the royal couple made it onto Time magazine’s ‘100 most influential people’ list.

    The 47-year-old Today host was announcing an upcoming segment on Thursday’s episode of the Channel Nine morning show when he faltered. 

    ‘Harry and Meghan honoured as… icons,’ he began, pausing dramatically before adding the word ‘icons’ in a questioning tone.

    He added: ‘Named as one of the most influential couples in the world. It’s hard for me to say.’

    Harry, 37, and Meghan have appeared on the cover of Time magazine’s ‘100 most influential people’ issue.

    The publication described Harry and Meghan, 40, as ‘icons’, praising them for their charity work.

    ‘In a world where everyone has an opinion about people they don’t know, the duke and duchess have compassion for the people they don’t know,’ reported Time. 

    ‘They don’t just opine. They run toward the struggle.’  

    Karl has been openly critical of the royal couple on multiple occasions in the past.

    'Named as one of the most influential couples in the world. It's hard for me to say,' joked Karl. Pictured, Harry and Meghan at the Mountbatten Music Festival in London in March 2020

    In July, he slammed Prince Harry after it was revealed that he’d signed a $20million tell-all book deal.

    ‘It doesn’t serve him well to be anti-media and to go and do exclusive deals and write memoirs that invite only more criticism,’ said the TV host on Today.

    Meanwhile, Karl’s co-host Allison Langdon added: ‘I reckon neither of them can live without the media attention. They both thrive on it and they both need it.’
