Admittedly, it's Packed with Absurdity, Over-the-Top Hospitality and Self-Help Jargon. However, I Honestly Love Meghan's Christmas Special.

No concerned with the time of year, it's always hunting season for criticism on the Meghan Markle's TV show, With Love, Meghan. Critics, both professional and armchair, have seldom found such common ground as when eagerly tearing the program's earlier episodes to shreds. The prevailing view held that a greater royal outrage had seldom occurred than the notorious snack re-labeling incident.

Now, as a festive rebel, she makes a comeback with a new offering with a "Christmas Special" (or a Christmas special). Yet now, it's different. The familiar ingredients we've come to expect – psychobabble word salads, intense hospitality – remain, but set of a holiday show, suddenly it all makes sense. The pieces have fallen together; it's a perfect snow storm.

At this stage, Meghan resembles the oddball family member at the typical holiday get-together – offering unsolicited, unnecessary advice, and supplying 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 an interesting figure, but her company is customary and strangely comforting. And she looks happy enough; she's causing the slightest hurt.

She knows her every micro expression, word and look will be picked apart and scrutinized, but still appears relaxed and remarkably at ease.

Perhaps this is the only time in history where that clichéd phrase – "Ignore them, they're just jealous" – could actually be true. Since, let's face it, all aspects in Meghan's Holiday Celebration truly is lovely. Admittedly, it's all awkwardly over-the-top, foolishness and over the top – but is that not precisely what Yuletide is all about? And the advice she gives might be laughable, but the life she leads genuinely looks beautifully curated.

Whatever she sets her mind to, she pulls off with panache. Her culinary efforts looks tasty, the holiday arrangement she crafts is gorgeous, her gifts are practically too exquisite to tear into. Not a single thing is ordinary or ugly – including the way she secures her apron is creative and fashionable. She doesn't throw a dish in the microwave, it "has a moment", and she folds wrapping paper like an paper-folding expert. She also seems to be completely savoring herself throughout. How could any skeptical viewer not be charmed, overcome by festive joy and left with a intense desire for personalized Christmas crackers or a crudites platter where greens is arranged in the form of a festive circle?

Meghan had a career in acting for a living, obviously, but despite that, after the intensity of examination she has faced ever since she became involved with Prince Harry, the love child of Meryl Streep and Judi Dench would have difficulty behaving this genuinely. Her unwillingness to modify or even moderate her shtick, even though it being so persistently, internationally ridiculed, is oddly heartening. In our unpredictable world, here is one thing we can count on: Meghan will remain herself, whatever happens. We will consistently know where we are with her.

If you're still not buying what she's selling, a thought that will certainly come as a relief: you aren't required to. There isn't mandatory conscription anymore, and were it to return, it would be unlikely to include watching With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration. If, on the other hand, you choose to watch and are consumed by envy about her picture-perfect Christmas, there is hope either. If you are a duchess or a office worker, hardly any child completely grasps the effort and hard work their mother does in the holiday season. So you can take heart by envisioning her children's faces when they open a handwritten message that says, 'I love you because you are brave,' from a DIY festive calendar, in place of a chocolate.
