Meghan Markle is set to make her return to the small screen in a new Netflix show titled With love, Meghanbut the series did not have the expected reception. While the trailer has just been revealed, the series has been mocked by Internet users and the British media.
Meghan Markle’s new series is far from unanimous… On Thursday January 2, Prince Harry’s wife revealed an enigmatic video on her Instagram account, eight years after closing her social network. The next day, Netflix unveiled its new project led by the Duchess of Sussex: an eight-episode series featuring Meghan Markle in a prestigious kitchen, in which she shares her tips for cooking, gardening and DIY. Although the program will only be released on January 15, it is already the target of strong criticism from Internet users, the media and even royalty experts…
“Who’s supposed to watch this? Internet users are offended by the trailer for With love, Meghan
Meghan Markle is working hard to regain popularity with her fans who have followed her throughout her Hollywood career. Four years after moving with Prince Harry to California, she returned to the small screen with a show broadcast on Netflix, entitled With love, Meghan. Made up of eight episodes, the program features the Duchess sharing her expertise with exceptional guests like Mindy Kaling (The Office) et Abigail Spencer (Suits).In the comments of the trailer published by Netflix on Youtube, the comments are salty: “I don’t understand who is supposed to watch this. Meghan and her rich friends cook in designer outfits and expensive jewelry, imposing their fake happiness on us. The world is on fire and most of us are facing a cost of living crisis. I think she’s completely out of touch with reality.“, shares an Internet user, an opinion liked by more than 1000 people. If the trailer sparked a stream of negative reactions, another subscriber writes: “I’ve never been more entertained than I am right now, thanks Netflix…not for the show but for leaving the comments open. This is quality entertainment.”
“She walks in her vegetable garden bathed in sunlight”: Meghan Markle targeted by British media criticism
As for experts in royalty and British historians, the program is also causing a lot of ink to flow… In the columns of Mirrorhistorian Tessa Dunlop explains: “I mean, come on, a reality show where one of the richest women in the world claims she can teach us ‘little tips and tricks’. Demonstrating how we can integrate these practices into our domestic lives, as she walks through her sun-drenched vegetable garden, retro basket in hand, before frequenting these designer bee hives, dripping with honey. It’s so out of reach. It’s laughable“. While the journalist expert in royalty, Hugo Vickers, launches to the Sun : “Many people are suffering. It’s a time of difficulty in general and, I’m sure, in America as well. I’m not sure what we’re going to do with a star wearing a white dress, and not even wearing an apron“.
