Regarding the unrelatable part, she was already unrelatable in her 2018 special which was called "Relatable". She had jokes about getting lost in her house for example. Her life being unrelatable is (for better or worse) part of her shtick. She doesn't pretend to be a regular person like some other extremely rich comedians do but it comes out as tone deaf most of the time.
