The recent Meghan Markle Netflix special has stirred a mix of fascination and criticism, with viewers and commentators alike dissecting every moment.
Despite the hype, reactions suggest the series might not have delivered the excitement or authenticity many were anticipating.
Early viewers who tuned in immediately upon the show’s release expressed disappointment. Critics noted that the initial episodes lacked the compelling content necessary to maintain interest, leading even dedicated viewers to drift off within minutes.
Described by some as “boring” and surprisingly mundane, the series seemed to miss the mark for capturing audience engagement.
Notably, the series attempted to highlight Meghan Markle’s relatability, yet often achieved the opposite. Critics particularly pointed out a segment featuring Markle’s makeup artist, dubbed “Uncle Daniel.”
While presented as a close friend and confidant, an awkward revelation indicated that despite their perceived closeness, Daniel did not attend Markle’s wedding. T
he moment, innocently referencing tasting her wedding cake without attending the event, unintentionally revealed the transactional nature of their relationship, undermining the narrative of deep friendship portrayed in the special.
Perhaps the most-discussed scene featured actress and producer Mindy Kaling, presented as a friend despite their acquaintance reportedly beginning just two years ago.
The interaction between Markle and Kaling sparked significant commentary due to perceived awkwardness and overt staging.
Critics noted Kaling’s heavily made-up appearance contrasted sharply with Markle’s curated “quiet luxury” look—white cashmere garments suited more for a glossy editorial shoot than casual home activities, such as berry picking in her garden.
The scene included Kaling enthusiastically praising Markle’s fashion choices, an interaction that seemed to visibly unsettle Markle, whose reaction was described as uncomfortable and revealing a deep insecurity.
Critics further called attention to Markle’s fashion claims during her conversation with Kaling, where Markle described part of her outfit as being “Zara pants,” seemingly aiming for accessibility.
However, the reality check swiftly followed as Markle also acknowledged wearing layers from high-end brands like Loro Piana and Jenny Kane—items notably out of reach for most viewers.
This duality between attempts at relatability and evident displays of wealth elicited both amusement and critique from viewers.
The series also sparked commentary due to Markle’s seemingly scripted quips and rehearsed conversations.
Observers noticed repetitive verbal tics throughout the episodes, such as Markle repeatedly using playful but forced phrases like “busy bees” and “working hard or hardly working.”
Critics perceived these moments as contrived, highlighting what appeared to be Markle’s careful rehearsal to maintain a particular public persona.
Even Markle’s domestic scenes attracted skepticism. Her gardening segments, which depicted the duchess picking berries in pristine white cashmere, quickly became fodder for criticism, labeled as unrelatable and overly curated.
A particularly memorable scene involved Markle’s chickens eating from a “chicknick” table, an indulgence many viewers found excessive given economic realities faced by the average person.
Overall, the Netflix special revealed less about Meghan Markle’s genuine personality and relationships than it did about her carefully constructed public image.
Whether the backlash or interest in her lifestyle endures, it’s clear that Meghan Markle’s attempt at crafting authenticity has prompted more questions about celebrity relatability in today’s media landscape.
