Admittedly, it's Brimming with Gibberish, Extreme Hosting and Psychobabble. Yet I Truly Adore Meghan's Festive Episode.

No matter the season, it's always hunting season for commentary on the Duchess of Sussex's Netflix series, With Love, Meghan. Commentators, both professional and armchair, have seldom found such common ground as when eagerly tearing the series' earlier episodes apart. The prevailing view held that a more egregious regal scandal had seldom occurred than the now-infamous snack re-labeling incident.

Presently, as a festive rebel, she is back for another round with a "Holiday Celebration" (also known as a yuletide episode). However on this occasion, things have shifted. The standard components audiences anticipate – meaningless jargon salads, extreme hosting – persist, but framed of a Christmas special, it all clicks into place. The elements have slid together; it's a perfect snow storm.

At this stage, Meghan is like the eccentric aunt at the typical holiday get-together – dispensing unsolicited, unnecessary advice, 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 company is customary and oddly reassuring. And she looks content; she's causing any harm.

She is aware her each tiny facial movement, utterance and gaze will be dissected and scrutinized, but still appears unburdened and remarkably at ease.

Maybe this is the only time in history where that well-worn saying – "Ignore them, they're just jealous" – might be true. The reason is, in all honesty, all aspects in Meghan's Holiday Celebration is charming. Yes, it's all awkwardly over-the-top, silliness and flamboyant – but doesn't that represent exactly what the holiday season is all about? And the talk she's talking might be ridiculous, but the example she sets appears to be shop-bought.

Whatever she turns her beautifully manicured, diamond-adorned hand to, she accomplishes with panache. Her culinary efforts looks tasty, the holiday arrangement she makes is gorgeous, her gifts are almost too pretty to tear into. Nothing is ordinary or ugly – even the way she secures her apron is creative and fashionable. She doesn't bung a dish in the microwave, it "goes for a spin", and she wraps gift paper like an origami guru. She also seems to be genuinely relishing herself throughout. How could any cynical observer not be convinced, bursting with holiday spirit and left with a powerful yearning for personalized Christmas crackers or a crudites platter where broccoli is positioned in the form of a festive circle?

Meghan was once an actress for a living, obviously, but even so, after the degree of examination she has weathered since she met Prince Harry, a theoretical combination of Meryl Streep and Judi Dench would find it hard to appear this genuinely. Her refusal to modify or even tone down her persona, regardless of it being so persistently, widely parodied, is strangely reassuring. In our unpredictable world, here is one thing we can depend on: Meghan will stay true to form, no matter what. We will consistently know where we are with her.

If you're not yet convinced by her message, a thought that will undoubtedly come as a comfort: you don't have to. There isn't national service these days, and if there were, it would be improbable to include watching With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration. If, conversely, you willingly check it out and are gripped with jealousy about her idyllic Christmas, you can take solace either. If you are a duchess or a everyday person, hardly any child truly appreciates the effort and hard work their parent expends in December. So you can find comfort by picturing her children's faces when they unfold a handwritten message that says, 'I love you because you are brave,' from a handcrafted holiday countdown, in place of a candy.
