Meghan Markle’s Netflix show With Love, Meghan is set to drop tonight at midnight. Now, experts are weighing in to say that the stakes for Meghan could not be any higher when it comes to this program. Indeed, it appears that this is a true make it or break it moment for Meghan in Hollywood.
‘Moment Of Truth’ For Meghan
“You’re only cold until you’re hot again, and Hollywood is a town based on temperature, not talent,” Doug Eldridge, a branding expert and the founder of Achilles PR, told Fox News. “If the show is a success, this could be the moment of truth.”
“If the show is a modest success, Meghan will return to relevancy in Tinseltown and the influencer opportunities will multiply,” he continued. “The problem with the influencer or reality television category is that it’s often more fashion than style. Fashion changes with the season or trend. Style is enduring, personal and doesn’t fall victim to seasonal whims.”
That being said, Eldridge has some hope for Meghan.
“Hopefully, Meghan can put her personal style and stamp on this and, in doing so, create some foundational scaffolding to rebuild her life and career,” he stated. “And to her credit, Meghan has never given up. Loss after loss, she’s stayed in the fight.”
With Love, Meghan was originally set to premiere in January. However, it was pushed back due to the wildfires that have devastated Southern California. Check out a trailer for With Love, Meghan below.

Another Expert Weighs In
Christopher Andersen, author of “The King,” chimed in to say that Meghan appears to be trying to emulate herself after Martha Stewart with her new show.
“Meghan is coming under a lot of criticism from the British press for doing a ‘reality show’ when the Sussexes adamantly said they wouldn’t,” Andersen said. “But that really is unfair. What they meant was they weren’t going to do anything like a ‘Housewives of Montecito.’ Her new Netflix series is… all about cooking, gardening and home decorating with a little celebrity stardust sprinkled on top when her famous neighbors drop it.”
“No whining, no crusading – just lifestyle advice delivered against a gorgeous backdrop,” he added. “If she’s smart, Meghan will borrow a page from Julia Child and add a dash of humor and humility. Nothing is more disarming than a little self-deprecation.”
Whether or not someone who takes themself as seriously as Markle does is capable of such a thing, we will have to find out tonight!

It’s Not Looking Good For Meghan
The royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams, however, finds it hard to believe that Meghan will be able to be relatable.
“Judging from the trailer, Meghan’s offering is a schmaltzy, supine, garishly colored attempt to mimic the success of influencers such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Martha Stewart,” he said. “It might appeal to easily pleased luvvies in ordinary times. These are anything but!”
“If this fails, their contract with Netflix may not be renewed,” the royal expert warned.
Meghan and her husband Prince Harry shocked the world when they stepped down as senior royals back in 2020. They then moved across the world to Southern California, where Meghan was born and raised.
While they have scored lucrative entertainment deals in the years since, Meghan and Harry have yet to achieve a true hit. Meghan will certainly be hoping that this changes when her new Netflix show drops tonight!
