Ekin-So not into Meghan Markle.
Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu candidly quipped that Netflix “wasted” a show on Meghan Markle with her lifestyle series, “With Love, Meghan.”
“All I can say is, what a wasted Netflix documentary! [They] could’ve given it to me,” the British native told Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast in an interview Monday.
The “Love Island: All Stars” alum, 30, laughed and clarified that she was somewhat “joking” and “kidding.”
“No comment,” she continued. “I mean, no comment. I love the royals. I’m a huge royal family [fan], so I will back the royals, but I don’t know about the documentary myself. [I’m] not sure it’s done very well, so I don’t wanna say much. I’m not a huge fan.”
Cülcüloğlu said that she hasn’t watched the whole series, but she has “seen stuff.”
The “Traitors” alum further admitted that she found it “weird” and “confusing” when Markle corrected Mindy Kaling on the show for saying her last name was “Markle” and not “Sussex.”
“I don’t know if that that was the right choice,” she told us. “So confusing.”
Cülcüloğlu questioned Netflix’s “end goal” and “what they wanted to bring out” from Markle’s show.
“That was my question. Like, like we know how to cook,” she continued. “She loves the TV.”
The “Love Island UK” winner suggested that Markle, 43, should instead return to her acting roots and return to the show “Suits” with their new spin-off, “Suits LA.”
“She’s a very good actress!” Cülcüloğlu added. “She should do ‘Suits’ again –– ‘Suits’ two. I would love to watch that. She was very good. I’d watch that.”
The Duchess of Sussex has faced mixed opinions about her Netflix series from other celebrities –– including Jimmy Fallon, Whitney Cummings and her father, Thomas Markle.
Despite receiving some negative feedback, Markle expressed her excitement when Netflix renewed the show for a second season.
“Lettuce romaine calm … or not (!) because I’m so thrilled to share that Season 2 of ‘With Love, Meghan’ is coming!” she wrote via Instagram earlier this month.
