Meghan Markle has long been portrayed as a champion of authenticity, but her latest venture has left many questioning whether she’s genuinely passionate or simply crafting a carefully curated image. This time, she’s donned a pristine beekeeper suit and stepped into the spotlight, attempting to convince the world that she’s a seasoned apiarist. The docu-series *With Love, Meghan* kicks off with a series of cringe-worthy moments that set the tone for what many are calling the fakest, most unwatchable show ever created.
As she confidently strides toward a lineup of beehives, Meghan solemnly declares, “The biggest thing is keeping a low tone. We talk in our bee voice.” But who exactly is she addressing? The bees? The camera crew? The audience at home? Let’s be real—bees don’t speak English, and they certainly can’t hear us through a TV screen.
The awkwardness doesn’t stop there. Meghan gushes about how the hives have “come along” over the past year, only to later admit she hasn’t visited them in months. And then comes the pièce de résistance: her cheerful declaration, “Busy bees! I’ve got good vibes. Good vibes for good hives.” It’s hard not to cringe.
But the real jaw-dropper? Meghan, the self-proclaimed beekeeper, has no idea how long bees live. After allegedly maintaining a hive for an entire year, she turns to an actual expert and asks, “What’s the lifespan of a bee?” At this point, the show veers into full-blown satire territory. Real beekeepers have taken to social media to express their disbelief, with one seasoned apiarist writing on Reddit, “I literally want to scream at her.”
For anyone who knows even the basics of beekeeping, it’s clear that Meghan’s portrayal is far from accurate. Beekeeping requires regular maintenance, especially during spring and summer. Yet, Meghan seems to think it involves ignoring a hive for months and then showing up with a camera crew for a few aesthetic shots. Speaking of aesthetics, let’s talk about that spotless beekeeper suit. Any real beekeeper will tell you that suits don’t stay crisp white unless they’ve never been used. Where’s the wax, the pollen, the honey, or even the occasional bee poop? Bees are messy creatures, and beekeeping is a messy business. Meghan’s immaculate outfit screams “costume department,” not “seasoned beekeeper.”
And then there’s the honey. Meghan admits she never really liked honey until recently. So, why the sudden passion for bees? Could it have anything to do with King Charles and the Princess of Wales, who are well-known for their love of beekeeping? The timing certainly raises eyebrows.
Beekeepers have also pointed out the absurdity of her honey-selling venture. A single hive doesn’t produce mass amounts of honey, so what’s her plan? Sell 10 jars and call it a day? Or, more likely, buy honey in bulk from industrial farms, slap her brand on it, and pretend it came from her precious hive.
All in all, *With Love, Meghan* feels like little more than an exercise in cosplay. Beekeepers, royal watchers, and viewers alike are left wondering: Who is this show even for? In a world grappling with real issues—geopolitical crises, economic downturns, and environmental challenges—who asked for a reality series about Meghan Markle pretending to be a beekeeper?
Perhaps the real tragedy here isn’t that Meghan is blatantly cosplaying a hobby she clearly has no real interest in. It’s that Netflix paid her millions to do it. This, ladies and gentlemen, is what happens when delusion meets an unlimited budget. And the only real victims in this mess? The poor bees.
