Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has recently completed filming her new Netflix show, which aims to highlight the joys of cooking, gardening, entertaining, and friendship. This new venture marks her return to the limelight and showcases a different side of the former actress, who stepped away from royal duties with her husband, Prince Harry, in 2020.
"Meghan really enjoyed being back in front of the camera," a source revealed, as reported by Life & Style magazine. "She was totally in her element, demonstrating her skills in the kitchen and sharing tips on how to be the perfect hostess." The series, reminiscent of her former lifestyle blog, The Tig, is expected to offer a more personal glimpse into Meghan's passions and expertise.
The show will not only feature Meghan but may also include appearances by Prince Harry and some of her famous friends, such as Serena Williams and Abigail Spencer. "It's very likely a famous face or two will appear on the show in some form or another," the source hinted, adding an element of star power to the series.
Lynn Carratt, a PR expert, believes the series will reveal a softer side of Meghan, celebrating her love for domestic activities and close friendships. "The series will provide a glimpse of her softer side as it celebrates the joys of cooking and entertaining friends," Carratt noted. She also remarked on Meghan's transformation from a woman with political ambitions to someone now more focused on personal passions.
However, Carratt expressed some concern that the documentary might present an overly perfect life, potentially alienating viewers looking for a more relatable story. "The documentary will showcase her seemingly perfect life, and the public may prefer a more relatable story," she said.
Prince Harry will also step back in front of the camera with his own upcoming documentary about the world of polo. This project offers him a chance to share a personal passion and perhaps rebuild his public image. "It could be an opportunity for him to showcase his true self," Carratt said. "Having played polo at a high level since a young age, this is something he excels at."
Lord Kulveer Ranger has expressed skepticism about the couple's ability to sustain audience interest with their new content. "They're really struggling to get the content. It's all about content. If you want people listening to your podcast and the clicks, you've got to have something to say," Ranger told GB News, suggesting that the success of their new ventures is not guaranteed.
Despite the mixed expectations, Meghan's new show has generated considerable buzz. Life & Style reported that the production wrapped up smoothly, and the series is poised to be a larger-scale version of The Tig, exploring various lifestyle themes. Meghan's joy in returning to her acting roots is palpable. "She was totally in her element, demonstrating her skills in the kitchen and sharing tips on how to be the perfect hostess," an insider said.
The timing of Meghan's Netflix debut comes amid Princess Kate's recent health challenges, including her battle with cancer. Some speculate that Meghan's new project might overshadow Kate, who has been out of the public eye while undergoing preventative chemotherapy. This dynamic has added another layer of intrigue to Meghan's return to the screen.
Throughout the production, Meghan's enthusiasm for the project was evident. "Meghan really enjoyed being back in front of the camera," a source reiterated. The show, designed to highlight her skills and passions, represents a significant shift from her previous royal duties.
