Meghan Markle's Netflix series With Love, has sparked controversy, with commentators calling it "completely and utterly tone-deaf." The eight-episode lifestyle series blends practical tips for cooking, gardening, and homemaking with candid conversations featuring guests like Mindy Kaling, Roy Choi, and Prince Harry. Produced by Archewell Productions and Sony, the show aims to inspire viewers by showcasing beauty in everyday life.
Meghan McCain, daughter of the late U.S. Senator John McCain, criticised the series for focusing on luxury at a time of widespread economic struggles. Writing on X, she remarked, “There have been two terror attacks in two days, major wars raging, and Americans can’t pay for groceries. This concept is ill-advised.” She suggested Markle focus on addressing pressing issues, such as food deserts in low-income neighbourhoods, accusing her of prioritising personal branding over meaningful impact.
Markle unveiled the series trailer on Instagram, expressing her excitement and gratitude for her team. “I hope you love the show as much as I loved making it,” she wrote, highlighting the series’ playful approach to creativity and imperfection. However, critics like McCain argue that the show’s highly curated style feels disconnected from the realities many Americans face.
