It’s 2025 and the dawn of a new era of Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, actor, philanthropist, and now star of her own unscripted lifestyle show on Netflix called With Love, Meghan.
The show’s first official trailer dropped on 2 January, which the duchess posted to her own, new Instagram account with a personal message. “I have been so excited to share this with you! I hope you love the show as much as I loved making it,” she wrote. “Wishing you all a fantastic new year! Thanks to our amazing crew and the team @netflix. Beyond grateful for the support – and fun!”
The trailer begins with a producer asking in voiceover, “Ready for your show?” followed by close-up shots of Meghan chopping herbs, picking veggies from her own garden, pulling a basket out of the fryer, and other cooking-related tasks. “I’ve always loved taking something pretty ordinary and doing something surprising with it,” she says, while Do You Believe in Magic plays in the background. The trailer also promises guest appearances from the likes of Mindy Kaling and noted Markle bestie Abigail Spencer, among others, which is enough to get anybody hooked already, no?
So without further ado, here is everything we know about Meghan Markle’s new lifestyle show.
