Admittedly, it's Brimming with Gibberish, Over-the-Top Hospitality and Psychobabble. But I Do Love Meghan's Festive Episode.

No matter the season, it's perpetually open season for commentary on the Meghan Markle's televisual offering, With Love, Meghan. Commentators, both professional and armchair, have rarely been so united as when eagerly tearing the series' initial installments to pieces. The general consensus held that a bigger monarchy-related faux pas had hardly ever taken place than the much-discussed pretzel re-packaging incident.

Now, like a merry renegade master, she makes a comeback once again with a "Festive Special" (also known as a yuletide episode). But this time, it's different. The usual elements audiences anticipate – psychobabble word salads, extreme hosting – are still present, but set of a Christmas special, suddenly it all makes sense. The puzzle has come perfectly; it's a ideal seasonal storm.

Now, Meghan is like the oddball family member at most festive family gatherings – providing unsolicited, unnecessary advice, and contributing the occasional strange exclamation. ("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 appears pleased; she's causing the slightest hurt.

She understands her each tiny facial movement, utterance and gaze will be dissected and judged, but manages to seem relaxed and serenely untroubled.

Perhaps this is the only time in history where that clichéd phrase – "Don't listen, it's pure jealousy" – could actually be true. Because, you know what?, each element in Meghan's Holiday Celebration truly is delightful. Granted, it's all painfully excessive, nonsense and over the top – but doesn't that represent just what the holiday season is all about? And the words she speaks might be laughable, but the walk she's walking genuinely looks impeccably styled.

Whatever she attempts, she executes with style. Her recipes looks scrumptious, the wreath she crafts is stunning, her gifts are practically too exquisite to tear into. Nothing is ordinary or aesthetically displeasing – including the way she ties her apron is artful and chic. She doesn't throw a meal in the oven, it "takes a twirl", and she creases gift paper like an paper-folding expert. She also seems to be completely savoring herself from start to finish. How could any cynical observer not be charmed, overcome by holiday spirit and left with a powerful yearning for crafted festive snaps or a vegetable display where broccoli is positioned in the shape of a wreath?

Meghan was once an actress for a living, of course, but even so, after the level of examination she has endured ever since she met Prince Harry, a theoretical combination of acting royalty would find it hard to appear this naturally. Her unwillingness to change or even tone down her persona, even though it being so persistently, internationally ridiculed, is strangely reassuring. In our volatile world, here is something we can depend on: Meghan will be like this, come what may. We will consistently know where we are with her.

If you're not yet convinced by her brand, a point that will certainly come as a reassurance: you aren't required to. There isn't national service in this country, and were it to return, it would be improbable to include streaming With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration. If, on the other hand, you decide to tune in and are overcome with jealousy about her flawless Christmas, there is hope either. If you are a duchess or a office worker, hardly any child completely grasps the time and energy their mum does in December. So you can console yourself by imagining Archie and Lilibet's faces when they reveal a calligraphy note that says, 'I love you because you are brave,' from a DIY festive calendar, rather than a candy.
