Instagram decided to spice things up by blocking the hashtag for Meghan Markle’s new Netflix cooking show, *With Love, Meghan*. And by “spice,” I mean they threw a whole cayenne pepper shaker into the pot.

Fans searching for the show’s hashtag were hit with a message suggesting it was linked to child sexual abuse. Forget recipes and roasted veggies—Instagram served up a side of “WTF” instead.

According to Instagram, this little oopsie was a mistake. A Meta spokesperson clarified that they block searches linked to potential child safety risks, and this time, the algorithm just got it wrong.

Totally understandable, right? I mean, who hasn’t accidentally flagged a duchess’s hashtag as criminally suspicious? But wait, the plot thickens.

Some fans aren’t buying the “accident” excuse. Oh no, they’re already lighting up the conspiracy theory grills. Let’s dig into the juicy allegations:

Maybe someone hijacked Meghan’s hashtag to create chaos. But why? Could it be an elaborate scheme by some bored internet troll to make Meghan look bad? Or is this just the internet being the internet—wild, weird, and utterly unhinged?

Oh, come on. Meghan and Netflix wouldn’t be above drumming up attention, would they? Surely not.

Critics argue this could be a genius marketing strategy to stir up sympathy and publicity for a show that, frankly, no one was asking for.

Meghan has been dabbling in advocating for online safety, so some skeptics are calling it cosmic irony that her own show got flagged. Is this Instagram’s twisted way of saying, “Practice what you preach”?

Let’s address the elephant in the room—or maybe the over-the-top catering hall. Social media has been brutal about Meghan’s show since the trailer dropped.

Critics roasted her for presenting herself as relatable while draped in diamonds and surrounded by the kind of kitchen most people only see in luxury home magazines. “Fake,” “elitist,” and “cringeworthy” were just some of the kinder descriptors.

Allegedly, the trailer’s dislike count was quietly adjusted, and bots may have been deployed to sprinkle in some glowing reviews.

But wait, there’s more! Remember Meghan’s infamous photo op at the Uvalde tragedy? Critics are dredging that up too, claiming she’s not above exploiting sensitive issues for PR.

Apparently, the backlash hit Meghan hard. Reports say she’s in tears over the criticism and the fiasco with Instagram. But let’s be real: when you’re trying to sell a show, you need people to like you, not block you.
