Admittedly, it's Packed with Nonsense, Extreme Hosting and Psychobabble. Yet I Truly Love Meghan's Festive Episode.

No matter the season, it's constantly hunting season for commentary on the Meghan Markle's Netflix series, With Love, Meghan. Reviewers, expert and amateur alike, have hardly ever agreed so completely as when eagerly tearing the series' first and second seasons to pieces. The prevailing view seemed to be a greater royal outrage had seldom occurred than the much-discussed pretzel re-packaging incident.

Currently, as a festive rebel, she has returned with a new offering with a "Christmas Special" (or a Christmas special). However on this occasion, things have shifted. The standard components viewers are accustomed to – vague self-help platitudes, overzealous entertaining – are still present, but set of a Christmas special, the purpose becomes clear. The pieces have fallen into place; it's a perfect snow storm.

Now, Meghan is like the quirky relative at Christmas celebrations everywhere – dispensing unsolicited, unnecessary advice, and supplying the odd random outburst. ("I love spinach!" … "A tradition has to have a beginning." … "A tree is part of my memory and love of the holiday season.") She's a bit of a character, but her company is customary and oddly reassuring. And she appears happy enough; she's inflicting the slightest hurt.

She is aware her all subtle gestures, syllable and look will be analyzed and scrutinized, but manages to seem relaxed and too blessed to be stressed.

Perhaps this is the first occasion in history where that clichéd phrase – "Pay no mind, it's only envy" – might be true. The reason is, in all honesty, each element in Meghan's Holiday Celebration truly is charming. Yes, it's all painfully excessive, silliness and over the top – but isn't that exactly what Yuletide is about? And the words she speaks might be absurd, but the life she leads genuinely looks beautifully curated.

Anything she sets her mind to, she executes with panache. Her recipes looks tasty, the holiday arrangement she crafts is breathtaking, her presents are almost too pretty to tear into. Nothing is average or ugly – including the way she ties her kitchen garment is stylish and elegant. She doesn't bung a dish in the oven, it "takes a twirl", and she folds gift paper like an origami guru. She also seems to be completely savoring herself throughout. How could any cynical observer not be won over, bursting with holiday spirit and left with a intense desire for handmade crackers or a vegetable display where broccoli is arranged in the shape of a Christmas ring?

Meghan used to pretend for a living, naturally, but despite that, after the level of attention she has weathered from the moment she met Prince Harry, the love child of acting royalty would find it hard to appear this genuinely. Her refusal to change or even moderate her routine, regardless of it being so constantly, widely parodied, is oddly heartening. In our volatile world, here is something we can rely on: Meghan will stay true to form, no matter what. We will always know what to expect with her.

If you're not yet convinced by what she's selling, a point that will undoubtedly come as a relief: you aren't required to. The UK has abolished the draft anymore, and should it be reinstated, it would be unlikely to include watching With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration. If, on the other hand, you choose to watch and are overcome with jealousy about her flawless Christmas, all is not lost either. Be you a duchess or a everyday person, few children completely grasps the time and energy their parent expends in December. So you can find comfort by picturing the young royals' faces when they unfold a beautifully scripted letter that says, 'I love you because you are brave,' from a handcrafted holiday countdown, instead of a sweet treat.
