Indeed, it's Full of Absurdity, Extreme Hosting and Self-Help Jargon. However, I Honestly Cherish Meghan's Christmas Special.

No matter the time of year, it's perpetually hunting season for commentary on the Meghan Markle's Netflix series, With Love, Meghan. Commentators, both professional and armchair, have hardly ever agreed so completely as when enthusiastically shredding the lifestyle show's initial installments apart. The general consensus held that a greater royal outrage had seldom occurred than the now-infamous pretzel-bagging incident.

Now, as a festive rebel, she makes a comeback for another round with a "Holiday Celebration" (aka a Christmas special). However on this occasion, things have shifted. The usual elements viewers are accustomed to – psychobabble word salads, extreme hosting – persist, but within the context of a holiday show, the purpose becomes clear. The pieces have fallen together; it's a flawless festive blizzard.

Now, Meghan resembles the oddball family member at Christmas celebrations everywhere – dispensing unsolicited, unnecessary advice, and delivering the periodic peculiar declaration. ("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 an interesting figure, but her aura is known and unexpectedly soothing. And she looks content; she's inflicting any harm.

She understands her all subtle gestures, word and gaze will be dissected and scrutinized, but still appears relaxed and too blessed to be stressed.

Maybe this is the first occasion in history where that old chestnut – "Pay no mind, it's only envy" – might be true. The reason is, let's face it, all aspects in Meghan's Holiday Celebration is lovely. Yes, it's all awkwardly over-the-top, nonsense and over the top – but isn't that just what Yuletide is for? And the words she speaks might be absurd, but the life she leads seems authentically beautifully curated.

Anything she turns her beautifully manicured, diamond-adorned hand to, she accomplishes with panache. Her culinary efforts looks tasty, the festive decoration she creates is stunning, her presents are nearly too beautiful to tear into. Nothing is average or aesthetically displeasing – even the way she secures her apron is creative and fashionable. She doesn't bung a meal in the microwave, it "goes for a spin", and she creases wrapping paper like an craft master. She also seems to be thoroughly enjoying herself the entire time. How could any hate-watcher not be charmed, overcome by festive joy 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 was once an actress for a living, of course, but despite that, after the intensity of examination she has endured from the moment she became involved with Prince Harry, the love child of acting royalty would struggle to act this naturally. Her decision to change or even moderate her persona, regardless of it being so relentlessly, internationally ridiculed, is weirdly comforting. In our uncertain world, here is one thing we can rely on: Meghan will remain herself, come what may. We will always know where we are with her.

If you're remaining skeptical of her message, a thought that will surely come as a relief: you aren't required to. We don't have the draft in this country, and if there were, it would be doubtful to include watching With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration. If, conversely, you willingly check it out and are gripped with envy about her flawless Christmas, all is not lost either. Whether you're a duchess or a office worker, no kid truly appreciates the time and energy their mum puts in in December. So you can take heart by envisioning the young royals' faces when they open a handwritten message that says, 'I love you because you are brave,' from a DIY festive calendar, in place of a candy.
