Meghan Markle’s Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, has run into heavy criticism with its second season. Many viewers and commentators argue that the series feels “tone deaf” and disconnected from the realities of everyday life.
Showbiz journalist Sarah-Louise Robertson, speaking on GB News, was particularly harsh in her review. She said Meghan often plays the role of a “professional victim” and claimed the show comes across as out of touch with real-world struggles.
Robertson pointed out examples like Meghan talking about putting “flower sprinkles” on her food, calling it unrealistic compared to what ordinary families are dealing with. “People are worrying about paying bills, mortgages, and feeding their children,” Robertson said, adding that Meghan’s lifestyle moments feel trivial and far removed from normal life.
The criticism didn’t stop there. Robertson also accused Meghan of being superficial and materialistic, especially in her interaction with celebrity Chrissy Teigen. According to her, Meghan’s comment of “look how far we’ve come” felt shallow, especially when Teigen is married to multimillionaire singer John Legend.
Robertson suggested that Meghan’s true ambition was simply to live comfortably without responsibility: “She just wanted to marry a rich man, live in a mansion, and be taken care of.”
Finally, Robertson compared Meghan’s current life to the opportunities she once had as a senior royal. She argued that when Meghan was the Duchess of Sussex, she had the chance to make a meaningful difference. Instead, Robertson claims Meghan walked away from that responsibility, choosing luxury and wealth over public service.
