Meghan Markle is rumored to be working on a cookbook, but royal watchers aren't impressed with her efforts."Then comes the rumored cookbook! Cookbooks suggest trust, authority, a whisper of 'this person knows their stuff'. Markle brings none: just styling and sanctimony," commentator Lee Cohen told Daily Express.

"Her Netflix lifestyle series, With Love, Meghan, was a bust — critics calling it unrelatable and exhausting," Lee Cohen continued. "She was trying for Martha Stewart, but without the charm, authenticity or skill."While Meghan's first season of her Netflix series was extremely popular, her second season failed to attract a comparable audience. The streaming giant has yet to confirm if the project has been renewed for a third season.

Lee Cohen noted that Meghan Markle's transition from Suits to With Love, Meghan isn't unique to Hollywood."The actress-turned-entrepreneur narrative once relied on novelty. That novelty is gone — long gone," Cohen shared. "Without royal proximity to monetise or fresh grievance to weaponise, Markle's ventures must stand on their own merits — of which there are painfully few."
