Indeed, it's Full of Gibberish, Over-the-Top Hospitality and Self-Help Jargon. However, I Honestly Love Meghan's Christmas Special.

No considering the time of year, it's constantly hunting season for commentary on the Duchess of Sussex's Netflix series, With Love, Meghan. Critics, from seasoned journalists to online pundits, have rarely been so united as when eagerly tearing the program's first and second seasons apart. The prevailing view was that a more egregious regal scandal had seldom occurred than the much-discussed snack re-labeling incident.

Now, in the spirit of a holiday maverick, she has returned once again with a "Christmas Special" (also known as a holiday episode). Yet now, it's different. The standard components viewers are accustomed to – meaningless jargon salads, overzealous entertaining – persist, but within the context of a Christmas special, the purpose becomes clear. The elements have slid into place; it's a perfect snow storm.

By this point, Meghan resembles the eccentric aunt at Christmas celebrations everywhere – offering random tips, and contributing the occasional strange exclamation. ("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 presence is familiar and oddly reassuring. And she looks happy enough; she's not doing the slightest hurt.

She is aware her all subtle gestures, word and gaze will be dissected and scrutinized, but nonetheless looks carefree and too blessed to be stressed.

Perhaps this is the initial instance in history where that old chestnut – "Don't listen, it's pure jealousy" – might be true. Since, you know what?, all aspects in Meghan's Holiday Celebration truly is lovely. Yes, it's all awkwardly over-the-top, foolishness and extravagant – but is that not exactly what Yuletide is for? And the talk she's talking might be ridiculous, but the walk she's walking seems authentically beautifully curated.

Whatever she sets her mind to, she pulls off with panache. Her culinary efforts looks scrumptious, the holiday arrangement she makes is gorgeous, her gifts are nearly too beautiful to open. Not a single thing is mediocre or visually unappealing – including the way she secures her apron is artful and chic. She doesn't throw a meal in the oven, it "has a moment", and she creases gift paper like an origami guru. She also seems to be thoroughly enjoying herself the entire time. How could any hate-watcher not be convinced, filled with seasonal cheer and left with a intense desire for crafted festive snaps or a crudites platter where broccoli is arranged in the form of a Christmas ring?

Meghan was once an actress for a living, obviously, but despite that, after the degree of scrutiny she has faced ever since she started dating Prince Harry, even a hypothetical offspring of acting royalty would have difficulty behaving this genuinely. Her unwillingness to change or even soften her routine, even though it being so relentlessly, globally mocked, is oddly heartening. In our volatile world, here is one thing we can rely on: Meghan will remain herself, come what may. We will consistently know our position with her.

If you're not yet convinced by her brand, a thought that will surely come as a comfort: you aren't required to. There isn't national service these days, and if there were, it would be doubtful to include viewing With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration. If, on the other hand, you choose to watch and are gripped with envy about her flawless Christmas, you can take solace either. If you are a duchess or a everyday person, hardly any child completely grasps the time and energy their mother expends in the holiday season. So you can take heart by envisioning her children's 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.
