Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, is facing criticism following the release of her first cookbook, “Endless Summer Cookbook,” due to perceptions of her culinary abilities showcased in a recent Netflix lifestyle series. RadarOnline.com reports the cookbook’s launch has sparked ridicule online.

The controversy stems from Markle's appearances in her and Prince Harry's Netflix docuseries, “Harry & Meghan.” Critics have pointed to segments where she prepared meals, suggesting a lack of experience or expertise in cooking. Social media users have been quick to share clips and express skepticism about her culinary skills, drawing comparisons to professional chefs and questioning the authenticity of her cooking demonstrations.

The “Endless Summer Cookbook” features recipes inspired by Californian cuisine and the couple’s life in Montecito. Proceeds from the cookbook benefit Suma Home, a Ukranian charity supporting women and children displaced by the war. Despite the charitable aspect, the focus remains on the perceived disconnect between the cookbook's release and the impressions left by the Netflix series. The cookbook has garnered significant media attention, though much of it centers around this critique of Markle’s cooking abilities.

RadarOnline.com’s report highlights the online backlash and the ongoing discussion surrounding Markle's public image and perceived authenticity. The cookbook's sales figures and critical reception beyond the initial controversy remain to be seen.
