The Duchess of Sussex's With Love, Meghan cookery programme landed on Netflix this morning - and features the royal catching up with pals and showing off her kitchen skills.
But those tuning in have been quick to joke about some of her behaviour, including showing off a tattoo inspired by her new brand As Ever and saying she's "branded forever".
It show has been described as the "FAKEST stuff ever" and "only for the richest people" by people on social media.
Across eight 33-minute episodes the mum-of-two made cringe jokes about her bacon, shared recipes with pals, learnt from celeb chefs and even became emotional over bees.

But less than an hour since the release, harsh viewers have already left scathing criticism.
One penned on X: "I'm not even 30 seconds into the first episode and I already know that With Love, Meghan is the FAKESTEST stuff ever."
Another added: "Six minutes of with love Meghan... ok only for richest people..so.. bye bye."
"All of Meghan Markle’s “recipes” can be found on Pinterest," claimed someone else.
She also mimicks Fred Flintsone by pulling out a fish bone and saying "yabadabadoo" during a cooking session with pals Abigail Spencer and Kelly Zafjen.
Meg at one point jokes that "my bacon brings all the boys to the yard", and says when she cooks the salty meat Harry and the three dogs suddenly appear in the kitchen.
The duchess, while arranging some flowers, later produces a makeshift bin to put any rubbish in and says she is such a clean freak her daughter Lilibet has made up a song called "clean as you go" which the royal then does a brief rendition of.
In one bizarre moment, Meg gets flustered and tells her guest Alice Waters "I feel like you're watching me fall in love" as she eats a turnip.
She also reveals the music she listens to most includes yacht rock and French dinner party tunes.
Friend Mindy Kaling asks image-conscious Meg about her "look" but the duchess has no idea what she means before saying in a funny accent: "Oh my, look, she likes my look!"
During one episode she also reveals how she grew up on fast food and TV dinners, admitting she ate "a lot of Taco Bell, Jack in the Box".
In the same exchange, she then corrects Mindy who referred to her as "Meghan Markle", saying she's a "Sussex" now, adding: "This is our family name."
In the same episode, Meg reveals her bizarre party bags for kids, which include gardening tools, peas and seeds and a manuka honey stick for "something sweet".
She says: "When I'm putting together a kids party I think about the senses...
"There's a real delight in being a present parent sometimes. "
Her pal then mum shamed her by saying kids under one year can't eat honey.
In a later episode, Harry arrives at a party and does a toe-curling hand wave.
In another slightly bizarre moment, Meg is seen leading her beloved rescue dog Guy - who has since passed away - around the back garden on a lead.
In a reference to The Buckwheat Boyz' song - mimicked in Family Guy, Meg makes jam and sings: "It's peanut butter jelly time."

Pal Kelly Zajfen describes her as "head of morale" during her time on the set of TV show Suits, to which Meg replies: "I like to plan fun for everyone."
