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

No matter the time of year, it's always hunting season for scrutiny on the Meghan Markle's televisual offering, With Love, Meghan. Critics, both professional and armchair, have hardly ever agreed so completely as when enthusiastically shredding the lifestyle show's initial installments apart. The general consensus was that a greater royal outrage had seldom occurred than the much-discussed snack re-labeling incident.

Currently, like a merry renegade master, she is back once again with a "Festive Special" (also known as a yuletide episode). Yet now, the dynamic has changed. The standard components audiences anticipate – psychobabble word salads, intense hospitality – remain, but framed of a holiday show, it all clicks into place. The elements have slid into place; it's a perfect snow storm.

At this stage, Meghan resembles the eccentric aunt at the typical holiday get-together – providing random tips, and contributing 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 quite a personality, but her company is customary and unexpectedly soothing. And she looks happy enough; she's not doing any harm.

She knows her every micro expression, word and look will be picked apart and judged, but nonetheless looks unburdened and serenely untroubled.

Perhaps this is the only time in history where that well-worn saying – "Don't listen, it's pure jealousy" – may well be true. Because, let's face it, each element in Meghan's Holiday Celebration truly is charming. Yes, it's all painfully excessive, silliness and extravagant – but is that not precisely what the holiday season is about? And the talk she's talking might be laughable, but the walk she's walking seems authentically shop-bought.

Anything she attempts, she pulls off with style. Her cooking looks scrumptious, the wreath she crafts is breathtaking, her gifts are almost too pretty to unwrap. Not a single thing is average or aesthetically displeasing – including the way she secures her apron is creative and fashionable. She doesn't throw a dish in the oven, it "goes for a spin", and she wraps wrapping paper like an origami guru. She also seems to be completely savoring herself from start to finish. How could any skeptical viewer not be convinced, bursting with holiday spirit and left with a deep longing for handmade crackers or a vegetable display where greens is arranged in the form of a wreath?

Meghan was once an actress for a living, naturally, but even so, after the degree of attention she has endured from the moment she started dating Prince Harry, a theoretical combination of Meryl Streep and Judi Dench would struggle to act this genuinely. Her refusal to modify or even soften her shtick, even though it being so relentlessly, widely parodied, is strangely reassuring. In our volatile world, here is one thing we can count on: Meghan will remain herself, come what may. We will always know our position with her.

If you're remaining skeptical of what she's selling, a point that will surely come as a comfort: you aren't required to. There isn't the draft in this country, and should it be reinstated, it would be unlikely to include watching With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration. If, on the other hand, you willingly check it out and are consumed by envy about her idyllic Christmas, you can take solace either. Be you a royal or a everyday person, few children fully understands the effort and hard work their mum puts in in the holiday season. So you can find comfort by picturing her children's faces when they open a calligraphy note that says, 'I love you because you are brave,' from a homemade Advent calendar, instead of a candy.
