The Duchess of Sussex is to return to Netflix with her own reality series, With Love, Meghan.
According to Netflix, the “inspiring series, produced by Meghan, reimagines the genre of lifestyle programming, blending practical how-to’s and candid conversation with friends, new and old.
“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.”
The show is set to launch on the streaming service on 15 January and will feature a slew of her LA pals, including acclaimed chef Roy Choi, actor and comedian Mindy Kaling, and the renowned restaurateur Alice Waters.
In December 2022, Netflix’s tell-all royal docuseries Harry & Meghan was watched by over 2.4 million people on its launch day.
In the first trailer for the new series, Meghan is seen embracing Prince Harry and cooking with friends including her former Suits co-star Abigail Spencer.
“We’re not in the pursuit of perfection, we’re in the pursuit of joy,” Meghan says in voiceover. “Love is in the details.”
Ahead of the announcement, Meghan returned to Instagram on New Year’s Day in a move which signalled a new chapter for the duchess after spending 2024 largely out of the spotlight.
The Duchess of Sussex relaunched her personal account on January 1 with a video captured by her husband Prince Harry on a beach near their home in Montecito, California.
The clip shows her running barefoot toward the waves with her back to the camera. She stops to trace “2025” in the sand before giggling and jogging away dressed in an all-white outfit.

Meghan’s return to Netflix comes at a crucial time for both her and Prince Harry.
Her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, launched on Instagram back in March, though the company is yet to start trading goods as it continues to face setbacks regarding its trademark.
The account featured a bio reading, “By Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex. Established 2024,” and a photo grid displaying the brand’s logo.
Though her application to trademark her jams and other goods was initially filed in February, it was rejected in August with her team requesting more time to complete the bid.
The upcoming year also marks an important time for both Meghan and Harry to reignite interest, amid reports that their stock in Hollywood is steadily declining.
Their multimillion-dollar contract with the streaming service is set to come to an end in 2025, though their latest project with the streaming service ‘Polo’ failed the make a splash.
The docuseries was supposed to follow the “grit behind the glamour” of the sport, but received negative reviews despite the couple making an appearance themselves in one episode.
