Meghan Markle’s new Netflix show With Love, Meghan has been branded “b***** awful” by a priest.
Father Brendan Kilcoyne urged Catholics to watch Meghan’s Netflix show as penance and “drink in the mediocrity” of the series.
In the opening scene of the series, Meghan collects honey with a beekeeper.
Father Kilcoyne criticised the duchess claiming that even the bees seemed “mortified” by their “riveting” conversation.

In a video on Youtube, he pointed out the mother-of-two’s“blindingly white” and “pristinely clean” bee suit despite the former actress claiming she has been collecting her own honey for a year.
The clergyman also mocked the dialogue “we’re going to have a lot of honey” – “yes we are”.
Discussing Meghan’s relationship with the Royal Family, the priest urged his audience to “drink in the mediocrity and savour the narrow escape that one of the most distinguished Royal lines in the world has just had”.
He added: “Meghan Markle is nemesis. She is the anti-monarchy. Thank God they’re out there in Montecito.”
