Meghan Markle Unveils Exciting New Lifestyle Series on Netflix Following Instagram Comeback

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex has disclosed that she will be featured in a new Netflix series following mysterious social media posts on New Year’s Day. 

The streaming powerhouse unveiled a trailer early this morning for With Love, Meghan, showcasing the former royal engaging in cooking, gardening, beekeeping, and floral arranging alongside celebrity guests. 

Netflix’s webpage featured a brief synopsis of the series, expected to launch on January 15, listing Meghan Markle as an executive producer.

“[The show} reinvents the lifestyle programming genre, combining practical how-to insights and genuine conversations with friends, both new and old,” read the synopsis. 

“Meghan imparts personal tricks and advice, favoring playfulness over perfection and illustrates how creating beauty can be effortless, even in surprising moments.

“She and her guests dive into activities in the kitchen, garden, and more, inviting you to join in.”

Featured guests include actress and comedian Mindy Kaling, along with celebrity chefs Roy Choi and Alice Waters. 

There is additionally a moment captured of the royal duo exchanging a kiss while enjoying a mimosa. 

The unveiling of the trailer coincides with a social media post made by the Duchess of Sussex, who had remained inactive for years. 

Under the Instagram handle Meghan, the duchess is seen sprinting along a beach before inscribing “2025” in the sand with her fingertip. 

The account swiftly amassed over 1 million followers. 

The former royal also followed up with a post featuring the show’s trailer this morning. 

“I have been eagerly anticipating sharing this with you!,” she wrote in the caption. 

“I hope you enjoy the show just as much as I enjoyed creating it. 

Wishing everyone a marvelous new year! Many thanks to our extraordinary crew and the Netflix team, feeling immensely grateful for the support – and the fun!”

Meghan Markle has scarcely maintained a social media presence since 2020. 

In 2019, Prince Harry and Meghan established their own social media presence and website, rebranding themselves as Sussex Royal—drawing the “Sussex” from their duke and duchess designations. 

However, the Sussex Royal Instagram account had a short lifespan, as Harry and Meghan resigned from their roles as working royals in 2020.

In March of the previous year, Meghan teased her new brand American Riviera Orchard with a fresh Instagram page. 

At that time, it seemed to indicate a shift towards a greater focus on lifestyle content, yet no further posts have been made since March 15, 2024. 

Neither the Instagram profile nor the associated website provided much clarity regarding what the brand entailed.

The US patent office disclosed a bit more, however. 

As per the submission at that time, the brand intended to market cookbooks, kitchen implements (which incorporate silverware and kitchen textiles) and an assortment of jams and fruit conserves. 

The trademark application was lodged under a business named Mama Knows Best, which the Associated Press indicates was registered in January in Delaware.

Following their departure from royal duties, Prince Harry and Meghan have established a production enterprise and charitable organization, along with engaging in various projects, such as another Netflix series entitled Harry & Meghan, centered on their relationship.

In April, the couple’s media firm Archewell announced that two new series were under development, one honoring “the delights of cooking & gardening, hosting, and friendship” (now recognized as With Love, Meghan), and another delving into the realm of professional polo, which was released in December.

That documentary series, named Polo, received unfavorable reviews from critics, with The Telegraph characterizing it as “a tedious indulgence concerning a wealthy person’s pursuit”.
