Meghan’s interview is filled with exaggerated scenarios, vague references to her relationship with Prince Harry, and a lot of self-congratulatory talk about her new Netflix series, With Love, Meghan. But beneath the surface, there’s plenty to unpack. Let’s get into it.
The interview kicks off with Meghan painting an idyllic picture of her life in Montecito. She describes cozy winter evenings curled up in bed with her 5-year-old son, Archie, while finalizing details for her rebranded lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, and her Netflix series.
But here’s the thing: the details don’t add up. Meghan claims she’s savoring the stillness while Harry is away in Canada for Invictus Games business. Yet, she also mentions sipping bone broth and checking in on her sick children. It’s a confusing mix of overly curated moments that feel more like a PR script than a genuine glimpse into her life.
One of the most talked-about moments in the interview is when Meghan shares that Archie told her, “Mama, don’t work too hard.” While Meghan frames this as a sweet anecdote, it’s hard not to read between the lines. A 5-year-old begging his mother not to work too hard suggests that Archie feels neglected.
This isn’t just a cute story—it’s a red flag. Meghan’s relentless focus on her career and public image seems to be taking a toll on her family life. And yet, she spins it as a heartwarming moment, completely missing the underlying message.
Meghan also opens up about the challenges of launching her lifestyle brand, admitting that there were “tons of twists and turns” along the way. She says, “I was figuring it out in real time,” which is a generous way of saying she made a lot of mistakes.
But here’s the thing: Meghan has access to the best resources money can buy. Her missteps aren’t just a learning curve—they’re a sign of poor planning and a lack of professional guidance. Compare her chaotic launch to someone like Blake Lively, who quietly and successfully launched her haircare brand without a hitch. Meghan’s approach feels rushed and amateurish.
With Love, Meghan is described as a heartfelt exploration of Meghan’s passions—cooking, hosting, and decorating. But let’s be real: this show is less about sharing meaningful content and more about Meghan’s obsession with herself.
She talks about how her children were able to watch her work on set, saying, “I love that my children were able to watch me working and see the balance of that.” But again, it feels like Meghan is prioritizing her career over her family. The show is framed as a love letter to her passions, but it comes across as a vanity project.
Meghan also tries to portray herself as a relatable mom in Montecito, talking about her friendships with other moms and her involvement in the community. She describes hosting playdates and setting up obstacle courses for the kids, but it all feels a bit forced.
The truth is, Meghan lives in one of the most exclusive, wealthy enclaves in America. Her attempts to come off as a regular mom fall flat when you consider her $14 million mansion and her A-list lifestyle.
Looking ahead, Meghan says she’s open to whatever the future holds. She talks about her children growing up and her excitement for the next chapter of her career. But what’s missing is any real sense of humility or self-awareness.
Meghan’s focus remains firmly on herself—her brand, her show, her image. There’s little mention of Harry or any genuine reflection on the challenges they’ve faced as a couple. It’s all about Meghan, all the time.
This People magazine interview is a masterclass in PR spin. Meghan paints a picture of domestic bliss and professional success, but the cracks are impossible to ignore. From Archie’s heartbreaking plea to the chaotic launch of her lifestyle brand, it’s clear that Meghan’s priorities are out of whack.
As With Love, Meghan prepares to launch on Netflix, it’s hard not to wonder if audiences will see through the facade. Meghan’s relentless self-promotion and lack of authenticity are becoming harder to ignore.
