Meghan Markle’s Netflix Cooking Show Faces Disaster After Test Screening Backlash
Just when we thought Meghan Markle’s Netflix cooking show, *With Love, Meghan*, might actually be a success, the test screening came crashing down faster than a soufflé in a hurricane.
According to rumors, the reactions were so poor that Netflix is probably regretting ever signing Meghan and Harry for the project.
*With Love, Meghan* was meant to be Meghan’s grand return to television. Picture the glamour, the perfect kitchen, fresh ingredients, and of course, Meghan pretending to be a culinary expert while offering personal tips on lifestyle and beekeeping.
Unfortunately, the first test screening didn’t go as planned. Audience members were left confused, wondering if they were watching a cooking show or an unintentional comedy series.
The acting? Terrible. The editing? Even worse. And the continuity errors? Plenty. Imagine Meghan stirring a pot, and then—voila!—suddenly she’s at a different counter with a completely different dish. How do you mess up continuity in a cooking show? Meghan found a way.
In classic Meghan style, she demanded another screening with an unbiased audience. But Netflix, apparently tired of catering to her every whim, refused. After all, they didn’t have time to indulge the Duchess of Drama’s requests. So, what’s next? The show, which was originally set to premiere on January 15, has been pushed back to March 4.
But it’s not just Meghan in meltdown mode. Co-star Mindy Kaling is reportedly freaking out behind the scenes as well. Rumors are circulating about re-editing the entire show or even re-shooting scenes. That’s right—Meghan might have to redo the whole thing because her “cooking magic” didn’t quite turn out as expected.
At this point, Netflix might be seriously considering cutting their losses and axing the entire project. After all, who wants to watch a millionaire play in her kitchen when so many people are still struggling with homelessness? And let’s not forget the PR disaster when Meghan decided to postpone the show due to the California wildfires.
How thoughtful, right? Yet, she had no qualms airing her Oprah interview just weeks after Prince Philip’s hospitalization. Timing and respect seemed to go out the window when it came to publicity stunts.
Now, things are getting messier. Meghan’s so-called cooking is as fake as her public image. Industry professionals have raised concerns over how ridiculous the whole thing looks.
Netflix, meanwhile, might be ready to pull the plug entirely—and who can blame them? The show has been such a flop that Netflix could be wondering if they should sue Meghan to recoup some of the money they invested in this catastrophe.
This isn’t just a failed cooking show; it’s a symptom of a much bigger issue with Meghan and Harry’s post-Sussex existence. They’ve struggled to deliver on their royal promises, their respectful family portrayals, and their entire post-royal careers.
Meghan went ahead with the Oprah interview in 2021, which aired just weeks after Prince Philip’s hospitalization, ignoring any concerns about timing or empathy. But when it comes to her cooking show, suddenly timing matters.
So, here we are, watching Meghan’s delusional world crumble one disastrous test screening at a time. It wouldn’t be surprising if Netflix eventually gave up on her show, leaving us with nothing more than a reminder of how difficult it is to cook up a career when the recipe is all wrong.
