By showcasing the behind the scenes of her recent work, her charity involvement and content that is relevant to her lifestyle narrative and humanises her beyond previous endeavours, she will continue to engage them, keep up her profile and remain relevant in the public eye.”‘With Love, Meghan’ has faced mix reviewsNetflixJardine concluded: “As long as she partners with other like minded brands and influencers that allow her content to come across as genuine, she can reinforce her credibility and relevance on the platform.”‘With Love, Meghan’ has faced mix reviews as the eight-part cookery and lifestyle show initially faced negative reviews from UK publications.However, many fans have shown their support for the duchess following the backlash.One fan wrote: “Despite the media noise, those of us actually watching know the truth, this show is a gem. It’s warm, inspiring, and exactly what we’ve been waiting for. Finally, a show that truly celebrates the beauty of hosting and everyday moments!”
