Meghan Markle’s Netflix Cooking Show Faces Fan Disinterest Ahead of Launch

Meghan Markle is gearing up for the debut of her much-anticipated Netflix cooking series, With Love, Meghan, set to premiere on January 15.

However, it seems that excitement among fans is at an all-time low.

Despite the show's premise, which promises culinary delights and appearances from celebrity friends, many viewers have taken to social media to express their indifference.

As the countdown to the premiere continues, a recent poll conducted by Express UK reveals just how little enthusiasm there is.

The survey, which ran from January 3 to January 6, gathered nearly 10,000 votes.

Astonishingly, a whopping 98 percent of respondents—9,489 individuals—indicated they had no interest in watching the show.

Only 22 percent, or 2,011 votes, expressed any excitement, while a mere 30 votes were undecided.

The comment section of the poll was filled with humorous responses, showcasing fans' lack of interest.

One user quipped they'd prefer to watch paint dry, while another jokingly suggested they'd rather stick pins in their eyes.

Clearly, the anticipation for Meghan's foray into the culinary world isn't resonating with her audience.

In another twist, Meghan's ongoing legal drama with her half-sister, Samantha Markle, has taken an unexpected turn.

A recent defamation lawsuit filed by Samantha contained a glaring mistake: Prince Harry was incorrectly referred to as the Duke of Wales, a title that actually belongs to his brother, Prince William.

This mix-up raises eyebrows, especially given the serious nature of the lawsuit.

Samantha's lawyer, Peter Tickton, seemed unfazed by the error, stating that most Americans wouldn't differentiate between the various dukedoms.

He also commented on the implications of Harry's royal connections, suggesting they could complicate his immigration status in the U.S., particularly in light of past revelations about his drug use.

Legal experts are weighing in on this situation, with commentator Niles Gardner warning of potential legal troubles for Harry.

He noted that any dishonesty on Harry's immigration application could lead to serious consequences, including possible deportation from the U.S.

Looking back, Meghan had hinted at her desire to break away from royal traditions long before she and Harry stepped back from their royal duties in 2020.

In a candid 2017 interview with Vanity Fair, she openly discussed her relationship with Harry, emphasizing the importance of keeping certain aspects private while expressing their love for one another.

Meghan stated, “We're a couple, we're in love,” and acknowledged that they would eventually share their story with the world.

Her openness reportedly frustrated palace officials, given that she and Harry had only recently begun dating at the time.

Recently, Meghan found herself in hot water again over a choice she made during a public appearance.

While attending an event with Harry focused on children's safety online, she wore a poppy that appeared quite different from her husband's.

Observers noted that Meghan's poppy lacked the traditional leaves, leading many to question her respect for Remembrance Day customs.

Fans quickly criticized the Duchess for what they viewed as a breach of protocol.

Despite both Meghan and Harry's active support for various charitable causes, this incident reignited discussions about Meghan's approach to royal traditions and her public image.

As the launch date for With Love, Meghan approaches, it remains to be seen whether the show can overcome the apparent apathy from fans.

With ongoing legal issues and public scrutiny, Meghan's journey in the culinary world might not unfold as she had hoped.
