Celebrity chef Jameson Stocks claims Netflix has threatened him with legal action after he publicly denounced Meghan Markle’s show, “With Love, Meghan.”
The chef — who had previously cooked for King Charles and other royals — famously slammed the Duchess of Sussex’s series, saying it was “terrible” and “painful to watch.”
Stocks, 41, had previously claimed that he turned down an offer from the streamer to work on the show to avoid public scrutiny and creating something “forced and fake.”
It appears as though his comments were not well-received by Netflix honchos.
“I got a lawyer’s letter from Netflix after I spoke out against her, warning me. I proper p–ed them off. Netflix did not like it and came after me,” he told the Daily Mail.
Stocks also doubled down on his criticism of the “Suits” alum, questioning how she managed to ink a $100 million deal with the streamer.
“I don’t think she can cook and I don’t think she should be teaching people to cook either,” he added.
Still, Stocks’ claims were disputed by Netflix, as a spokesperson for the streamer told The Post, “No legal letter was sent to Jameson Stocks from Netflix.”
The Post has reached out to Markle’s reps for comment.
Following the release of “With Love, Meghan” in March, the chef admitted he had been “skeptical” of the show even before it went into production.
“I felt that even if she produced a really great program, which I was quite skeptical of anyway, that I might get a little slammed for it, for being a part of it,” he told GB News.
“I didn’t like the idea of me showing her how to do something, and then it kind of being forced and fake. I just felt if she’s going to do something herself, she should do it herself.”
In a true mic-drop moment, Stocks urged Markle to return to her former profession.
“I think she should just go back to acting,” he said. “She’s quite a good actress in real life, or obviously on screen. I think people should just stick to what they do best.”
The eight-part series, which featured special guests like Abigail Spencer and Mindy Kaling, saw Markle offer up a “how-to” guide for hosting friends at home.
The show has been bashed by critics and earned lower viewership numbers than her and her husband’s 2022 series “Harry & Meghan.”
Still, Netflix has since announced that it will be releasing a second season.
Many critics slammed the duchess for not being relatable — feedback she has since responded to.
“Don’t they know my life hasn’t always been like this?” she said, reminding New York Times food writer Julia Moskin in an interview that she was not always been married to a prince.
