    Meghan Markle launches new lifestyle show on Netflix after Instagram relaunch

    The former working royal is seen gardening, cooking and beekeeping with celebrity guests in the trailer to her new show, which premieres later this month.


    Meghan, Duchess of Sussex has revealed she will be in a new Netflix show after cryptic posts on social media on New Year's Day. 

    The streaming giant dropped a trailer early this morning for With Love, Meghan, which shows the former royal cooking, gardening, beekeeping and flower arranging with celebrity guests. 

    Netflix's website posted a short description of the show, which will be released on January 15 and lists Meghan Markle as a producer.  

    "[The show} re-imagines the genre of lifestyle programming, blending practical how-to’s and candid conversation with friends, new and old," the description read. 

    "Meghan shares personal tips and tricks, embracing playfulness over perfection and highlights how easy it can be to create beauty, even in the unexpected.

    "She and her guests roll up their sleeves in the kitchen, the garden, and beyond, and invite you to do the same."

    Guests include actress and comedian Mindy Kaling, celebrity chefs Roy Choi and Alice Waters. 

    There is also a shot of the royal couple sharing a kiss and a mimosa. 

    The release of the trailer follows a post to social media by the Duchess of Sussex who had not posted in years. 

    Under the Instagram username Meghan, the duchess is seen running along a beach before drawing 2025 in the sand with her finger. 

    The account following quickly grew to over 1 million. 

    The former working royal followed up with a post featuring the trailer to the show this morning. 

    "I have been so excited to share this with you!," she wrote in the caption. 

    "I hope you love the show as much as I loved making it. 

    Wishing you all a fantastic new year! Thanks to our amazing crew and the team at Netflix,  beyond grateful for the support - and fun!"

    Meghan Markle has barely had a social media presence since 2020. 

    In 2019, Prince Harry and Meghan formed their own social media presence and website, branding themselves as Sussex Royal — with the "Sussex" part coming from their duke and duchess titles. 

    However, the Sussex Royal Instagram account was not active for long, as Harry and Meghan stepped down as working royals in 2020.

    In March last year, Meghan teased her new brand American Riviera Orchard with a new Instagram page. 

    At the time it appeared to be teasing a pivot to more lifestyle content but nothing has been posted since March 15, 2024. 

    Neither the Instagram page or linked website provided too many answers about what the brand was.

    The US trademark office revealed a little more, however. 

    According to the application at the time, the brand hoped to sell cookbooks, kitchenware (including silverware and kitchen linens) and a variety of jams and fruit preserves. 

    The trademark was filed under a company called Mama Knows Best, which Associated Press says was registered in January in Delaware.

    Since leaving royal life behind, Prince Harry and Meghan have started a production company and charitable foundation, and pursued various ventures, including another Netflix show, called Harry & Meghan, about their relationship.

    In April, the couple's media company Archewell said two new series were in production, one celebrating "the joys of cooking & gardening, entertaining, and friendship" (now known to be With Love, Meghan), and another exploring the world of professional polo, which aired in December.

    That docuseries, titled Polo, was panned by critics, with The Telegraph describing it as "a dull indulgence about a rich person's pursuit".
