Meghan Markle’s New Netflix Show Sparks Backlash Amid Criticism of Being ‘Out of Touch

Meghan Markle's new Netflix show has faced criticism, with detractors labeling it "out of touch" amidst growing financial struggles faced by many Americans. The backlash highlights a perceived disconnect between the show's themes and real-world economic hardships.

Meghan Markle, the actress wife of Britain’s Prince Harry, will launch her new lifestyle and cooking show on Netflix on January 15, she announced Thursday on social media.

“I have been so excited to share this with you! I hope you love the show as much as I loved making it,” the Duchess of Sussex wrote on Instagram.

Netflix released a trailer for “With Love, Meghan,” an eight-episode series in which the “Suits” star will share tips on cooking, gardening, crafting, flower arranging and hosting.

Guests will include celebrated chef Alice Waters, actress Mindy Kaling and close friend Abigail Spencer, one of Meghan’s “Suits” co-stars. Harry appears briefly in the trailer.

“Beyond grateful for the support – and fun!” Meghan wrote on Instagram.

In March 2024, Meghan launched the lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard.

Since stepping away from their official royal duties in early 2020, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been cut off from the royal purse, forcing them to develop their own sources of income.

Their partnership with Netflix yielded the much-talked-about “Harry & Meghan,” a six-episode docuseries launched in December 2022.

Meghan’s new show has sparked a mixed response on twitter questioning the motives of her new show. Here’s how social media users reacted to the trailer of her new show.
