Sandra Lee Defends Meghan Markle's Netflix Show Amid Backlash

Sandra Lee, a celebrated chef, has come to the defense of Meghan Markle's Netflix show 'With Love, Meghan,' expressing surprise at the negative backlash it has received. Lee praised the series as 'beautifully filmed' and noted its calming content, encouraging Markle to continue inspiring creativity in others. Despite attracting only 526,000 households in its first five days, significantly lower than the 2.1 million for Markle's previous docuseries, Lee commended the production quality and the engaging nature of the show. Markle's series showcases her cooking and gardening skills alongside celebrity friends, reflecting her renewed passions after stepping back from royal duties. As the show gears up for a second season, Lee wished Markle good luck and emphasized the importance of creating relatable content. Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos also highlighted Markle's cultural influence, suggesting that she is often underestimated in her impact on trends and consumer behavior.
