Indeed, it's Full of Gibberish, Over-the-Top Hospitality and Psychobabble. However, I Honestly Cherish Meghan's Holiday Special.

No matter the time of year, it's perpetually fair game for commentary on the Duchess of Sussex's Netflix series, With Love, Meghan. Critics, from seasoned journalists to online pundits, have hardly ever agreed so completely as when gleefully ripping the lifestyle show's first and second seasons to shreds. The prevailing view held that a bigger monarchy-related faux pas had hardly ever taken place than the notorious pretzel-bagging incident.

Presently, as a festive rebel, she is back for another round with a "Festive Special" (aka a yuletide episode). Yet now, it's different. The usual elements viewers are accustomed to – meaningless jargon salads, overzealous entertaining – persist, but framed of a Christmas special, suddenly it all makes sense. The pieces have fallen perfectly; it's a ideal seasonal storm.

Now, Meghan has become the eccentric aunt at most festive family gatherings – dispensing unasked-for guidance, and contributing the periodic peculiar declaration. ("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 seems pleased; she's inflicting any harm.

She is aware her all subtle gestures, syllable and glance will be picked apart and judged, but manages to seem relaxed and remarkably at ease.

Perhaps this is the only time in history where that well-worn saying – "Pay no mind, it's only envy" – might be true. Since, let's face it, all aspects in Meghan's Holiday Celebration honestly feels delightful. Yes, it's all awkwardly over-the-top, foolishness and extravagant – but isn't that exactly what Yuletide is about? And the words she speaks might be laughable, but the walk she's walking seems authentically beautifully curated.

Anything she turns her beautifully manicured, diamond-adorned hand to, she executes with flair. Her culinary efforts looks tasty, the wreath she crafts is gorgeous, her gifts are nearly too beautiful to tear into. Nothing is ordinary or visually unappealing – even the way she ties her kitchen garment is creative and fashionable. She doesn't bung a dish in the oven, it "takes a twirl", and she wraps gift paper like an paper-folding expert. She also seems to be genuinely relishing herself throughout. How could any hate-watcher not be charmed, bursting with seasonal cheer and left with a deep longing for personalized Christmas crackers or a vegetable display where greens is positioned in the likeness of a Christmas ring?

Meghan had a career in acting for a living, naturally, but despite that, after the degree of scrutiny she has weathered since she started dating Prince Harry, the love child of Meryl Streep and Judi Dench would struggle to act this naturally. Her decision to change or even moderate her persona, regardless of it being so persistently, internationally ridiculed, is strangely reassuring. In our unpredictable world, here is one thing we can depend on: Meghan will be like this, come what may. We will always know what to expect with her.

If you're remaining skeptical of her brand, a thought that will surely come as a relief: you don't have to. The UK has abolished mandatory conscription these days, and if there were, it would be improbable to include viewing With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration. If, however, you choose to watch and are consumed by longing about her flawless Christmas, all is not lost either. If you are a duchess or a data administrator, few children fully understands the time and energy their mum expends in December. So you can find comfort by imagining her children's faces when they reveal a calligraphy note that says, 'I love you because you are brave,' from a handcrafted holiday countdown, in place of a sweet treat.
