Meghan Markle sees through the criticisms!
The Duchess of Sussex is convinced beyond a doubt that many people are pleased with her show, and those who criticize her skills are only doing so to make ends meet.
Meghan Markle has spent most of her debut creating lifestyle content, proving the naysayers wrong, although her emotions occasionally get the better of her.
Meghan Markle Goes Where The Love Is
The mother of two spoke up on Tuesday on "The Circuit with Emily Chang" about the mixed reviews following the just-concluded season of her lifestyle show on Netflix. She expressed that her partners and audience absolutely love the show, which is the demography she has chosen to stick with.
The acceptance by those who matter is reportedly why they now have a second season of "With Love, Meghan" in the works. Meghan addressed the flip side of these compliments, describing the bad reviews as intangible because some of the critics had copied her recipes.
"And that's all right. They're trying to pay their bills, and that's for them to sort out if they're comfortable doing it at someone else's detriment," Meghan noted. The former actress explained that the idea behind the show is for her to share the tips she loves in her life and have loads of fun.
Tina Brown's Criticism Reportedly Brought The Former Actress To Tears

The former editor of Vanity Fair and Tatler weighed in on Meghan's life, essentially criticizing her ability to make decisions or execute good ideas. In Tina Brown's words, as shared by The Blast, all of Meghan's ideas are uninspiring and complete "crap."
She also slammed Prince Harry and his decision to leave the royal palace, claiming it was his manifest destiny to leave it all behind. Tina blamed Meghan for being so impressionable on Harry, ultimately persuading him to flee his home country with her to America.
Following these comments about her person, craft, and marriage, Meghan was shocked that a person she once deeply admired could say such things about her.
Meghan has reportedly been a lifelong fan of Tina's work, including her book "The Diana Chronicles," a biography of Princess Diana. The former actress read the book to feel close to her late mother-in-law and prepare herself for the royal task ahead.
The Former Editor Said Diana Would Not Be On Board With Leaving The U.K.

Three years ago, the former editor shared that the late princess may not have encouraged his son and Meghan to leave their royal life behind. Tina expressed that Diana never maligned the institution, while she witnessed a chaotic time with the monarchy and her in-laws.
Tina emphasized, "Diana would have been very, very protective of Harry and I believe very anxious about this direction they [he and Meghan] have taken." She also opined that Diana may not have been very fond of Meghan, contrary to public opinion.
The late princess would have felt the former actress was leading her son astray and towards infamy. "I don't think Diana would have been the great fan of Meghan that Meghan herself might perhaps imagine," she added.
Tina also expressed in another interview that it saddens her heart to know that Harry cannot return to England at a point when the country's image desperately needs him.
Prince Harry Reportedly Battling Loneliness Amid Meghan's New Found Fame

Meghan's career has taken a significant upward turn, leaving Harry at a crossroads, according to the information he shared with his friends. He reportedly told his friends that Meghan has become deeply engrossed in her career and that the quiet moments in their marriage no longer matter.
The Blast reported that an insider told news outlets that Harry provided a breakdown of Meghan's day, which begins before sunrise and extends deep into the night. Meghan's expectations also weigh on those working around her, leaving them walking on eggshells around her at the end of the day.
Despite this feeling of loneliness, Harry is glad that his wife has found her purpose through selling out products for her "As Ever" brand and through her lifestyle show.
However, the feeling of insufficiency persists because things are not unfolding according to his plans for his marital life. He is also not staying idle as he gets busy with his charity organization and the Invictus Games.
Meghan Markle's Husband's Latest Social Media Sighting Warms Hearts

The Duchess of Sussex found a way out of swirling reports of a problem in her marriage to the prince by giving fans a glimpse of Harry enjoying a day out surfing the beach.
The younger royal, according to the Instagram clip, crouched low and let the waves do their thing behind him to create a visibly pleasing moment. Harry opted for shorts, a long-sleeved top, and a baseball cap flipped backward for his fun break.
Meghan wrote in the caption: "We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming to bring you this important message." The clip was set to an upbeat track, "Whatta Man" from hip hop group Salt-N-Pepa.
Fans on other social media platforms left their reviews on the video, expressing great happiness to see Harry in his element, happy, unbothered, and adventurous.
It seems Meghan Markle is no longer taking the criticism lying down.
