In recent news, a leak from a Netflix insider has raised doubts about Meghan Markle's culinary skills, particularly on her new cooking show. According to the source, Meghan struggled with basic kitchen tasks and heavily relied on off-camera assistance to execute supposedly effortless dishes. While she may not be as bad as Brooklyn Beckham in the kitchen, the insider described her as robotic and fake. The reality is that Meghan seems to believe she is too elite to actually cook, resulting in her efforts appearing forced and inauthentic. It comes across as if she is bossing around a chef and demonstrating how meals should be prepared, rather than genuinely engaging in the cooking process.
If Meghan wants to attract viewers to a food show, she should consider making each episode like a "Men's Health Burger Fiasco" – something gross and appetite-killing. It may sound unconventional, but it would likely attract more viewers than a low-budget imitation of Martha Stewart. Alternatively, she could abandon the nice guy act altogether and film herself yelling at kitchen staff, spitting out food, and throwing things around. People seem to love it when Gordon Ramsay does it. This approach would result in the most authentic and organic cooking show yet. To top it off, throwing in occasional appearances by Harry, with Meghan emasculating him through insults, would probably generate more viewership than all the "Real Housewives" shows combined.
Following the announcement of her upcoming Netflix show, Meghan Markle has been compared to Brooklyn Beckham, as they both venture into the culinary scene. Meghan's show aims to celebrate the joys of cooking, gardening, entertainment, and friendship. Additionally, Meghan and Prince Harry are set to produce a new series exploring the world of competitive polo, leveraging their partnership with the streaming service. However, Charlotte Griffiths, the editor of The Mail on Sunday, remains skeptical. She likens Meghan to Brooklyn Beckham and questions the notion that they are not capitalizing on their royal connections for this venture, finding it laughable.
Griffiths wonders who would tune into a cooking show by Meghan Markle if she hadn't married into the royal family. She points out a past instance where Meghan made toast on a previous cookery show, describing it as watching paint dry. Griffiths believes that Meghan does not have a strong track record in cookery shows and suggests that she and Brooklyn Beckham should collaborate, anticipating a cringe-worthy result. She acknowledges that Meghan enjoys cooking as a hobby but is not known as a passionate cook.
Griffiths speculates that this new venture could be Meghan's attempt to soften her image, although she agrees that being seen as ambitious is not necessarily negative. She recalls moments like when Meghan wrote words on bananas a few years ago or when she visited the UK and released a cookery book for Grenfell, which supported a good cause. However, Griffiths personally did not buy into the portrayal of a soft and gentle Meghan. She believes that Meghan is tough, ambitious, and ruthless, and sees no issue with that. Ultimately, she asserts that Meghan is not the gentle persona she attempts to portray.
