Meghan Markle’s Netflix series, With Love, Meghan, continues to face fierce criticism as more journalists weigh in on its authenticity and purpose. Despite the backlash, the show is set to return for a second season in the autumn.
During a discussion on GB News, journalist Suzan Holder expressed her disappointment in Markle’s latest endeavor, saying: “I find it disappointing that this woman, who is articulate, has put herself back in the kitchen twiddling pretzels. I think it’s a shame.” Fellow journalist Emma Woolf echoed the sentiment, stating: “There’s nothing wrong with doing a cookery show if she wants to actually cook. But this is just silly, fakery, lifestyle stuff, arranging fruit and then calling it a rainbow platter, which everyone else calls a fruit salad.”
The debate over whether With Love, Meghan is out of touch with reality has intensified, with UK media outlets offering scathing reviews. The Telegraph awarded the show a mere two stars, describing Markle’s approach as “this hostess with the mostest act must be exhausting.” Meanwhile, The Guardian delivered an even harsher critique, branding the show “toe-curlingly unloveable TV” and slapping it with a one-star rating.
Despite the harsh reception, Meghan Markle remains committed to her lifestyle venture. Shortly after the first season aired, she took to Instagram to confirm that With Love, Meghan will return for a second season in the autumn. However, details about the upcoming episodes remain scarce.
As the controversy around With Love, Meghan continues to swirl, many are left questioning whether Markle’s latest project is a genuine passion or just another carefully curated attempt to maintain her brand.
