The Duchess of Sussex might have a flourishing way of life model promoting gourmand jam and jars of honey for $28, however don’t count on her to roll out pastry from scratch.
In the brand new collection of Netflix’s way of life present With Love, Meghan, the previous Suits actor, 44, makes use of ready-made puff pastry to create McDonald’s apple pies together with her collection visitor, Queer Eye star Tan France.
“We’re going to use pre-made, good puff pastry as opposed to making our dough from scratch,” she said.
Markle also turned up her nose at the traditional way of baking, calling it too “measured” – and adding that she loves “the idea of being able to rethink things to be just a little more spontaneous”.
Elsewhere in the series, Meghan gave more insight into her romance with the Duke of Sussex, revealing that he was the first to say “I love you” early on in their relationship.
While Prince Harry does not appear in the series, Meghan frequently refers to him as “H” and pictures of him are shown on screen.
The new series sees the duchess engage in various arts and crafts activities, such as flower-arranging, candle-making and designing a scarf. She also explains how to pack an overnight bag for a weekend away, how to make marshmallows from scratch and jewellery featuring pressed flowers.
Guests throughout the series include makeup artist Daniel Martin, chefs David Chang, Christina Tosi, Samin Nosrat, Radhi Devlukia, José Andrés, podcaster Jay Shetty, American model Chrissy Teigen and her husband, musician John Legend, who makes a brief appearance in episode two.
The programme is filmed in a hired house near the Sussex’s home in Montecito, California. It appears to have been shot last year because it features the family’s pet beagle, Guy, whose death was announced in January 2025.
The new series comes after Harry and Meghan signed a multi-year deal with Netflix to produce film and television projects, which will give the streamer first refusal on any future projects.
Markle launched ready-made shortbread cookies and crepe mixes as part of her As Ever range in March.
