Brooklyn Beckham recently broke his silence after Megan insulted his cooking show. Megan Markle, who is launching her own cooking show under the brand American Riviera Orchard, has been compared to David Beckham's son, who is also an aspiring chef. Charlotte Griffiths, the editor of Melon Sunday, mentioned that the idea of not relying on royal connections is far-fetched. While Megan may not directly criticize the royal family as she did in her previous Netflix show, one can't help but wonder who would be interested in watching a program about Megan Markle cooking if it weren't for her marriage into the royal family.
Griffiths further added that she came across something circulating online about Megan's previous cooking show, where she famously demonstrated how to cook toast about five years ago. The recipe consisted of butter and her grandmother's favorite jam. Griffiths admitted that watching it was rather dull, akin to watching paint dry. So, based on her previous performance, Megan doesn't have a great track record when it comes to cookery shows.
The comparison between Megan and Brooklyn Beckham prompted Megan's PR team to release a statement clarifying that Megan's cooking skills are not as bad as those of celebrity offspring like Brooklyn Beckham. Brooklyn, the eldest son of former soccer player David Beckham, transitioned from modeling to cooking a few years ago, citing the pressure of the modeling industry as the reason behind his career change. While he seems to enjoy cooking, his content has faced public scrutiny.
In response to the criticism, Brooklyn Beckham sat down with Insider and expressed his optimistic outlook, stating that he is accustomed to receiving hate and that it doesn't bother him. Cooking brings him joy, and he has more important things to worry about than people saying negative things about him. Unlike Megan, who films her cooking show for Netflix, Brooklyn cooks for fun and only shares his creations on Facebook. It's clear that he doesn't need to be exceptionally talented in the kitchen, whereas Megan's cooking show on Netflix requires her to possess at least minimal cooking skills to meet the viewers' expectations.
A potential idea for Brooklyn's show could involve collaborating with famous celebrity chefs, who guide him through the process of making their favorite home-cooked dishes in individual episodes. On the other hand, Megan seems to have borrowed her favorite recipes from people who are skilled in cooking. There are speculations that Harry might have eaten raw or undercooked food before their marriage, as his interests didn't lie in Megan's culinary creations, unless she can't even roast chicken properly.
Brooklyn Beckham has embraced the role of a Gen Z house husband, and while some may find it unimpressive, it doesn't harm anyone except his billionaire heiress wife. Moreover, she seems to appreciate his laid-back approach. In the end, it appears that Team Beckham is favored over the antics of the self-obsessed Megan.
