Netflix lifestyle series titled “With Love, Meghan” last week, in which she showed off her cooking and gardening skills with appearances from her celebrity friends.But despite the heart-warming snippet from the series, which is set to drop on Jan. 15, it appears as though her husband Prince Harry’s estranged family members will not be tuning in to watch.“I was told that the Prince and Princess of Wales have no interest in Meghan’s future projects,” royal expert and commentator Kinsey Schofield told Fox News about Prince William and Kate Middleton.“A palace source told me, ‘Meghan was a background character in a chapter that’s already closed.’ Courtiers don’t believe that Meghan is worth the mental real estate.”“The palace plans to assign someone of lower rank to sit through the show, so the communications office has a heads up if there is something to brace for,” Schofield went on.

Meghan Markle’s new Netflix series “a bit pretentious.”Corrigan, who had previously prepared food for the royal family on several occasions, admitted that he watched the Duchess of Sussex’s “With Love, Meghan” series, but didn’t enjoy it all that much.“It’s a bit pretentious,” he told the Daily Mail. “I don’t like the pretense.

Netflix series, “With Love, Meghan.”The Canadian comedian, 41, who was previously an ardent supporter of the exiled royal, has appeared to change her tune after watching the “Suits” alum’s new 8-part cooking show.“I liked Meghan Markle. I was rooting for Meghan Markle… though she is very Hollywood – even for me – and I don’t like that in people,” the “Glitter Room” star said on her “Telling Everybody Everything” podcast of the Duchess of Sussex.“I see now, and maybe it’s just the projects she’s choosing, it does feel like she has lied about whether she knew who Prince Harry was, and these details about her childhood change and don’t add up.”Ryan, who released a series of stand-up specials on the streamer throughout her career, noted that there are some discrepancies in Markle’s stories about her childhood.“She said on her new Netflix show that they ate TV dinners growing up,” she said, referring to the claim Markle made, which was later slammed by her estranged brother as “malarkey.”“But then in an old interview, she was like, ‘We would eat farm fresh.’ Her whole act just seems very manicured and very forced,” Ryan added.The “In Trouble” comedian added that while she doesn’t see Markle as a “pad person,” she does think the former actress “likes cozying up to celebrities and she wants the hundred million dollar deal and she likes the fact that she’s married to a prince.”“Of course.

eight-part series “With Love, Meghan,” has earned lower viewership numbers than her 2022 series “Harry & Meghan.”New figures appear to suggest that viewers prefer seeing the Duchess of Sussex on-screen with her husband, Prince Harry, rather than solo.The “Suits” alum, 43, premiered her cooking show March 4. And while it managed to find a way into Netflix’s Top 10 list, streaming figures show a stark contrast between her solo venture and her joint tell-all series alongside the Duke of Sussex, the Daily Mail reports.“With Love, Meghan” — a series that shows the mom of two offer a “how-to guide” for entertaining — racked up 526,000 households in the first five days it was available, according to data obtained by Samba TV.By comparison, Meghan and Harry’s 2022 series drew 2.1 million households in the same number of days, the data showed.Markle’s latest project proved to be most successful among viewers aged 45 to 54.As for geographical success, “With Love, Meghan” was most successful in the Baltic states: Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia.While the show did trend in the US, UK and Canada for a few days, it slid down the Top 10 list after three days, and officially fell off the list over the weekend.Still, it appears as though Netflix was chuffed with the streaming numbers “With Love, Meghan” raked in, as it said last week the show has been greenlit for Season 2.The Sussexes signed a $100 million deal with the streamer in 2020.

Meghan Markle’s “With Love, Meghan” show, saying she has an “unerring instinct for getting it wrong.”Brown, who served as the editor-in-chief of Vanity Fair from 1986 to 1992, said the Duchess of Sussex has “never figured out a convincing persona” after watching her latest Netflix series, which has already been renewed for Season 2.The “Suits” alum, 43, released her 8-part series on the streaming platform last week. But despite its streaming success, the project has been met with largely disappointing reviews from critics.According to Brown, the only show that would have worked would’ve been if Markle admitted “what a flaming flop the last five years have been.”“Who announces a new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, and hounds celebrity friends to talk up her strawberry jam on social media, without doing due diligence on the availability of the trademark?” Brown asked.In her Substack newsletter, titled Fresh Hell, she added that the former working royal is “impatient” and always “behind the curve.”Additionally, Brown slammed Markle and her husband Prince Harry’s decision to partner with Netflix after sensationally quitting royal life in 2020.“All Meghan had to do was shut up and wait,” Brown writes.

renewed for Season 2.But despite the series reaching Netflix’s Top 10 list, it appears as though Meghan’s estranged family has not been contributing to its streaming success.“I might sit down and watch it one day but I’m not sure,” Meghan’s estranged father told the Daily Mail, admitting that he’s seen “a ton of clips” of the 8-part series.Thomas, who worked as a TV lighting director and director of photography on shows like “Married… with Children” and “General Hospital,” accused his daughter of using “pre-planned” facial expressions in her show.“Unfortunately Meghan has never been authentic.

Does having a lower number make me more special?'”“I did not think about it,” Markle said in response. “It was not a ranking.

Netflix lifestyle series titled “With Love, Meghan” on Thursday.In the teaser, the former actress shows off her cooking and gardening skills with appearances from her celebrity friends including Mindy Kaling, Roy Choi, Alice Waters and her “Suits” co-star Abigail Spencer.However just hours after the trailer hit social media, McCain ripped Markle as “tone deaf” for releasing the “out of touch” project.“Now that she wants to be American again instead of British aristocracy what she seems to forget is Americans want real, raw, uncensored,” McCain wrote on X Thursday. Admitting that she was a Markle supporter at first, the daughter of Republican Senator John McCain said her thoughts on the runaway royal changed “like the rest of the world” after she “disrespected the royal family.”Markle, along with her husband Prince Harry, quit royal life in 2020 and moved across the pond in search of privacy.McCain claimed Markle’s lifestyle is unattainable for a slew of Americans, many of whom “can’t pay for groceries.”“All of this even in the trailer is highly curated, produced and out of touch,” McCain said.“We are a country in rage, uncertainty and intensity right now.

That’s a tricky question, because Netflix has almost unlimited capital and has already thrown tens of millions of dollars at this couple,” the source added.“The arbitrage for Netflix comes with all the press attention the Sussexes get, especially in England and the US, which are two of Netflix’s biggest markets.”The insider then added that the negative reception to the couple’s most recent project has put them “in a dangerous spot” because “they still have yet to deliver a rock-solid hit for Netflix that wins over their critics.”“We’ll see next year how many more chances they really get, but the critics have spoken and nobody is impressed,” the source went on.
