Ah, another laugh-out-loud moment from *The Gutfeld Show*, and this one is especially juicy! On the Tuesday episode, January 7th, around the 43-minute mark, the comedy gods blessed us with some royal mockery. The target? Meghan Markle’s brand-new cooking show. Yep, the same Meghan Markle who once claimed to be the voice of change, a feminist icon, and a global humanitarian, is now hosting a show where she… makes hummus.
Tyrus, the ever-looming comedic giant on *The Gutfeld Show*, had us in stitches with his prediction that he’d tune in to Meghan’s beekeeping segment just to spot the body double she probably hired. The irony here is thick. If you’re watching a show to see a “real person,” but you’re half-expecting a decoy—well, maybe you’ve ventured into the realm of too much perfection.
But let’s not stop there—because Kat T, who’s as pregnant as she is hilarious, also got in a savage jab about Meghan’s so-called gourmet skills. Apparently, the princess of passive aggression is now putting together hummus platters. Kat dropped a truth bomb that had me cackling, saying, "No matter how much Meghan fails, she just gets more and more opportunities. It’s like watching a woman with a fail-safe safety net made of gold thread. She can’t mess up." Kat’s spot on—imagine having that kind of cushion under you, and yet instead of, you know, doing something wild with all that power (like maybe getting drunk and slapping a camera guy), Meghan is just whipping up party appetizers. Iconic.
Tyrus didn’t miss a beat, either. He quipped that he’s especially looking forward to the segment where Meghan talks about “cutting off her husband’s balls.” Classic Gutfeld humor.
Now, Meghan’s cooking show, *With Love, Meghan*, premieres on January 15th. But before we even get to the hummus artistry, critics are already sharpening their knives. Kathleen Stock, a British philosopher, really captured the essence of Meghan’s hyper-curated brand in a column for *The Times*, asking the crucial question: "Has there ever been a person more obsessed with controlling their self-presentation while pretending to be natural and real?" Meghan’s new show, with its folksy aesthetic, could have easily been called *Stepford Wives: The Duchess Edition*. In the trailer, Harry casually pops in for what looks like a very rehearsed, spontaneous cuddle. Honestly, you can almost hear the collective cringe from around the world.
Meghan’s Instagram post hyping the show didn’t do much to convince anyone that this is more than just another chance for Meghan to collect fame and fortune. But honestly, who can blame her? When the cameras keep rolling, why not throw together a cake and arrange some flowers for good measure?
Critics are calling Meghan’s new persona an impeccably curated “trad wife,” a sharp turn from the feminist icon she once portrayed herself as. *The Times* even labeled her new gig as “Meghan the Tradwife,” as she picks berries and decorates cakes. It’s almost like watching someone who once railed against societal expectations turn around and embrace them—except now she’s doing it with a floral apron. It's like Meghan is saying, “Look, I’m the modern-day Betty Draper, but I still care about empowering women."
The *Independent* even chimed in, remarking that the whole trailer feels like a sequel to *Get Out*—gutsy, right? People can’t decide whether to laugh, cringe, or wonder if they’ve accidentally stumbled into a high-budget parody.
As the premiere date approaches, it’s clear that Meghan Markle’s cooking show might just be the most absurdly earnest thing you’ll see this year. A woman who once rejected societal pressures is now serving up a “tradwife” experience on a silver platter. You honestly can’t make this stuff up.
