UK Journalists Expose Meghan Hot Takes With Love, Meghan S2 Media Meltdown
When With Love, Meghan Season 2 landed on Netflix, the British media reached for the same outrage playbook—“narcissism,” “where’s Harry?”, “show failing”—often with recycled quotes and vague “insiders.” This time, though, several UK journalists openly challenged the narrative.
The Usual Headlines—And Why They Don’t Land
Telegraph: “Another exercise in narcissism?” – An easy smear that ignores the show’s actual content.
Yahoo: “Why Prince Harry isn’t in S2” – Quoting an old People piece from Season 1.
Evening Standard: “Where are Harry & the kids?” – A PR talking head states the obvious: security + it’s Meghan’s project.
Express: “Dropped by Netflix?” – Anonymous “insider,” zero receipts.
Journalists Push Back
On UK panels, Afua Scott called out the hypocrisy of bad-faith hot takes. Ellen McLoughlin acknowledged the core truth: the numbers decide—and Meghan’s trailer views speak for themselves. Even Vogue rolled its eyes at the drama: the show is “easy watching, not hate-watching.”
Views vs Narrative
While the headlines huffed, the Season 2 trailer racked up major views on Instagram, underscoring a simple reality: audience interest > tabloid noise.
