Former Vanity Fair Editor Delivers A Blistering Review Of Meghan Markle’s Netflix Series
HuffPost
Tina Brown criticized the Duchess of Sussex for misjudging the cultural moment, calling it “fake perfection.”
British-American journalist Tina Brown has joined a growing list of media figures who have shared less-than-favorable takes on Meghan Markle’s new lifestyle series, “With Love, Meghan.”
In Monday’s edition of her Substack newsletter “Fresh Hell,” Brown describes the series ― which premiered on Netflix last week ― as “a testament to how far the beleaguered Duchess of Sussex has rowed herself backward in time since she first burst into the public consciousness more than eight years ago.”
“With her unerring instinct for getting it wrong, Meghan has come out with a show about fake perfection just when the zeitgeist has turned raucously against it,” wrote Brown, a former editor-in-chief at Vanity Fair and The New Yorker.
Noting that Markle “has never figured out a convincing persona,” she added: “Masquerading as an influencer, she’s the ultimate follower, which inevitably means she is behind the curve.”
Billed as “a heartfelt tribute to the beauty of Southern California” by Netflix, “With Love, Meghan” is filmed in Montecito, where Markle lives with husband Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, and their two children.
