In a recent social media outburst, Meghan McCain, the outspoken political commentator and daughter of the late Senator John McCain, has taken aim at Meghan Markle’s upcoming Netflix series, “With Love, Meghan.” McCain’s criticism has sparked a heated debate about the relevance and impact of celebrity-driven content in today’s socio-economic climate.
Netflix series “With Love, Meghan” offers an intimate glimpse into the life of Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex. Set to premiere on January 15, 2025, this eight-part series showcases Meghan’s passions for cooking, gardening, and hosting.

“I was originally a Meghan Markle supporter. … Now that she wants to be American again instead of British aristocracy what she seems to forget is Americans want real, raw, uncensored,” Meghan McCain wrote on X.
