Meghan Markle has hit back at Netflix critics as she boasted about her show’s success.
The mother-of-two has thanked fans for watching her new Netflix show ‘With Love, Meghan’ after it reached the streaming platform’s Top 10 list in just 24 hours.
The Duchess of Sussex shared her gratitude on Instagram, posting: “For more recipes, fun and reasons to ‘Mmmm’, check out the show – which in just 24 hours is already in the Top 10!
“Thank you to all of you around the world who are tuning in!”

Her message was accompanied by a heart emoji and a snippet from the show.
The show currently ranks at number six in both the UK and US Netflix charts.
Despite this early streaming success, ‘With Love, Meghan’ has received a low IMDb score of just 2.4 out of 10 since its release.
This mixed reception shows a stark contrast between the show’s popularity with viewers and its critical reception.

UK publications have been particularly harsh in their assessment of the show.
Both The Independent and The Guardian gave the Archewell Productions programme just one out of five stars.
This represents an additional blow to the duchess following the low IMDb rating.
‘With Love, Meghan’ marks the duchess’s first solo project on Netflix since signing a five-year deal with the streaming giant in 2020.
