Meghan’s new venture premieres on Netflix on January 15, 2025. The promotional cover image for the series exudes elegance, perfectly setting the tone for the series. Meghan is captured in a stunning sleeveless long dress that flows gracefully. The outfit accentuates her natural poise. Set against a lush green backdrop, the “Suits” star radiates joy as her hair cascades down her shoulders in soft waves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

At the focus of the image, a wooden table holds a vase bursting with vibrant flowers, some of which she delicately arranges in her hands. Her bright smile, paired with the inviting and serene atmosphere, is enough to draw viewers in.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The\u00a0trailer<\/a> for “With Love, Meghan” also gives a delightful glimpse into the inviting world Meghan has created. It opens with Meghan in her garden, dressed in a casual outfit and apron, harvesting fresh produce. The scene transitions seamlessly to her kitchen, where she prepares ingredients for a meal, embodying her love for crafting simple joys.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“I’ve always loved taking something pretty ordinary and elevating it,” Meghan\u00a0shares<\/a>. The mom of two is seen slicing into a stunning homemade three-layer cake adorned with strawberries and separated by layers of rich cream. Her voiceover reflects her passion for making meaningful gestures. She also speaks of how much she enjoys creating thoughtful treats for others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The trailer highlights the vibrant atmosphere of the series. For instance, it shows Meghan laughing with friends like Mindy Kaling, sharing homemade drinks, and ice creams, and having heartfelt conversations. It even reveals Meghan’s foray into beekeeping, as she is shown harvesting honey with evident joy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As vibrant and celebratory as the series appears, with its color, good vibes, and emphasis on food and fun, Meghan\u00a0notes<\/a>\u00a0warmly, “We’re not in the pursuit of perfection.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Duchess\u00a0adds<\/a>, “We’re in the pursuit of joy. Love is in the details.” This sentiment shines through in a tender moment with her husband, Prince Harry, who wraps her in a loving embrace as they enjoy drinks together in their sunlit garden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The trailer has left some viewers enchanted, offering a heartfelt promise of love, laughter, and genuine connection in every episode. However, other people feel like a lifestyle series has been overdone, with most sharing why they wouldn’t tune in.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

One unimpressed viewer bluntly\u00a0shared<\/a>\u00a0their stance,\u00a0“Dont [sic] wanna watch it, will put dislike button on it.”\u00a0<\/i>Another user\u00a0echoed<\/a>\u00a0a similar statement,\u00a0“Defiantly not watching.”<\/i>\u00a0A harsher critic\u00a0dismissed<\/a>\u00a0the show outright,\u00a0“Wont [sic] be watching. Just a money grabber.”<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Taking the critique a step further, someone\u00a0showcased<\/a>\u00a0a deeply personal disdain,\u00a0“No one I know will be tuning in. Can’t stand someone who is two faced [sic] and turns their back on not one but two families<\/i>.” Another dismissive comment\u00a0highlighted<\/a>\u00a0a user’s frustration with the perceived content of the series,\u00a0“Just flashing her rich, privileged life.”<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Others found the concept unoriginal, with one person\u00a0quipping<\/a>,\u00a0“Martha already did this. Next,”<\/i>\u00a0a reference to lifestyle mogul\u00a0Martha Stewart’s<\/a>\u00a0past ventures. Martha’s\u00a0TV series<\/a>\u00a0“Martha Stewart Living,” ran from 1996 to 2004 and gave users tips on cooking, gardening, and flower arrangement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

However, not all reactions were negative. A fan\u00a0offered<\/a>\u00a0their support,\u00a0“Congratulations Meghan I will be watching. It sounds great\u00a0<\/i>\ud83d\udc4d.”<\/i>\u00a0Another supporter\u00a0celebrated<\/a>\u00a0Meghan’s efforts,\u00a0“Meghan is thriving and happy, and doing good things. If anyone has a complaint on this. They are in fact tools \ud83d\ude12.”<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A more open-minded commenter\u00a0added<\/a>\u00a0a dose of reality to the heated debate,\u00a0“I’ll tune in and have a look I can’t believe how many people personally know this couple and go on what other people say and all your families must be perfect.”<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Meghan’s\u00a0eight-episode<\/a>\u00a0lifestyle show is not just a reflection of her personal transformation but also a significant element of the\u00a0$100 million<\/a> Netflix partnership she shares with Harry. Filmed in Montecito, California, the series features appearances by other notable guests aside from Mindy, such as Roy Choi, Alice Waters, and other renowned chefs and close friends.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Mindy was excited when\u00a0Meghan Markle<\/a>\u00a0asked her to be part of her how. She revealed in an interview that her\u00a0friend texted her<\/a>\u00a0when Mindy was two months postpartum. “The Office” star was thrilled about the chance to hang out with Meghan and eat great food.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

However, as much as Meghan’s show reflects the idea that she is inviting her friends and viewers into her home, media reports have revealed that the scenes were shot in a place\u00a0that isn’t her own<\/a>. The show is filmed in a huge estate two miles from where the Duchess lives with her husband and two kids.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This mansion, owned by Montecito’s influential Cipolla family, is worth $8 million and consists of eight acres of avocado trees and lemon groves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The owners of the 4,500 sq ft home, Tom and Sherrie Cipolla, are famous philanthropists.\u00a0The residence<\/a>\u00a0boasts four bedrooms and four bathrooms, featuring elegant French doors that lead to a patio, a lush lawn, and magnificent views of the surrounding mountains.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Therefore, while Meghan is offering viewers a glimpse into her life, it’s important to note that this is not her personal residence. Instead, she’s choosing to share the joys of gardening, friendship, and entertaining in the luxurious home of the Cipolla family, all while keeping her own home private.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Even so, this is not Meghan’s first venture into the lifestyle brand space. In 2024, she launched American Riviera Orchard,\u00a0a brand<\/a> that focuses on home, garden, food, and general lifestyle products.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Furthermore, Meghan has been gradually returning to social media, sharing glimpses of her life. In 2025, she made her\u00a0comeback on Instagram<\/a>\u00a0by launching a new account on New Year’s Day, debuting with a beach video reportedly filmed by Harry. Her fans are eager to see what comes next for her.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
