Meghan Markle's decision to follow in Kardashians footsteps backfires

Meghan Markle suffered a fresh blow just a few days before the release of her much-awaited Netflix cooking show, With Love, Meghan. 

For the unversed, the Duchess of Sussex returned to Instagram at the beginning of 2025. Notably, the former Suits actress shared the first trailer of her headline-making television show, which sent the internet into a frenzy. 

Alongside the video, she wrote, "I have been so excited to share this with you! I hope you love the show as much as I loved making it. Wishing you all a fantastic new year! Thanks to our amazing crew and the team @netflix. Beyond grateful for the support - and fun! As ever, Meghan."

However, Meghan's show which is set to release on January 15 on the streaming giant left a few royal experts unimpressed. 

In conversation with The Sun, royal commentator Bronte Coy shared that the Duchess' upcoming project already "disappointed" her. 

She explained, "The fact it's not filmed in their house disappointed me because I think one of their major issues reputationally, Harry and Meghan, particularly Meghan, is authenticity."

"I mean the Kardashians film in different houses so that's commonplace but it's that idea of authenticity. I think that's an unfortunate one," the expert said.
