The eight-part series With Love, Meghan is set to air on Netflix this month – and now one of the Duchess’s friends has revealed the text message she received about the lifestyle show
Meghan Markle has started 2025 with a bang. On New Year’s Day, the Duchess returned to Instagram for the first time in seven years with the launch of her new account @meghan – and a short time later shared the trailer for her upcoming lifestyle show.
The eight-part show is set to premiere on 15 January and will see Meghan inviting friends and famous guests to a California estate, where she shares cooking, gardening and hosting tips.
One famous face set to appear in the series is Mindy Kaling – and she has shared some behind-the-scenes details about the project ahead of its launch.
Mindy was asked about her involvement as she walked the red carpet at the Golden Globes. And she revealed the surprise text Meghan had sent her.
The Office actress said she received the message two months after she had given birth.”I was on maternity leave after having my third child last year when Meghan texted me and said, ‘Hey, do you want to come be in my show and come out to Montecito and have me cook for you?'” Kaling shared with Deadline . “And I was like, ‘Yeah — that sounds perfect,'” she said.
Mindy also didn’t hold back when praising Meghan’s cooking skills. “Unsurprisingly, she kind of blew me out of the water,” she said. Meghan’s recipes, she added, were “really accessible” – even though Meghan has a flourishing garden and chickens.
