Meghan Markle has shared further glimpses of her home life as she unveiled season two of her Netflix cooking and lifestyle show today.

‘With Love, Meghan’ landed on Netflix at 8am after the Duchess of Sussex teased the trailer two weeks ago on her Instagram page.

Guests on season two will include Chrissy Teigan and Jamie Kern Lima and the former senior royal is seen eating cheese, prepping snacks and drinks with friends and even reveals the food her husband Prince Harry doesn’t like. 

This comes as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex signed a new ‘multi-year, first look deal for film and television projects’ with Netflix – a downgrade on their previous contract.

The new arrangement is a first-look deal, meaning Netflix can say yes or no to new film or TV projects before anyone else.

Meghan Markle opens up to Chrissy Teigan about her time on Deal or No Deal

The Duchess of Sussex opened up about her time on Deal or No Deal on the second season of With Love, Meghan.

Before her breakout role on Suits, Meghan briefly appeared on Deal or No Deal alongside Chrissy Teigan in 2006.

‘I was thinking about how many moons ago we crossed paths and that was past life, that was good old Deal or No Deal,’ the Duchess of Sussex told Chrissy as they made pressed flower jewellery in her ‘Craft Barn’.

They exchanged memories from their time on the show, as Meghan said: ‘I remember us all having to stand in line to get our lashes put in.’

Chrissy then jumped in to add how all the models had to deposit their lashes ‘in a Ziploc bag’ after the shoot was over.

Meghan said she just ‘so happy to have health insurance’ after landing the gig.

Chrissy, the wife of singer John Legend, recalled being a ‘backup girl’ on the show while Meghan routinely appeared as a briefcase model – before the Duchess recalled how Chrissy ‘got famous’ shortly after.

‘I mean, I left the show, and then like a year or so later, you got famous,’ she told Chrissy. ‘I was like, “Oh my god, she’s on the cover of Sports Illustrated, she was just sitting back there on the little chair, waiting…”‘.

The mother-of-four replied: ‘Not competitive at all, literally was fascinated by all of you and just so happy to be in the world of Hollywood.’

Meg’s trendy breakfast! Duchess reveals the meal that her family loves to eat

Meghan Markle has revealed the very trendy breakfast that she loves to tuck into with her husband and their children.

During the second season of the show, the Duchess of Sussex revealed some interesting tidbits about her family, including what she, Prince Harry and their two kids Archie, six, and Lilibet, four, enjoy eating first thing in the morning.

According to Meghan, she cooks breakfast for both children most days, fried eggs and pancakes.

‘But I like to do surprise pancakes for the kids,’ she revealed during one episode.

‘So I always put some ground flax seeds or some chia seeds in and Lili will ask, “can I have my chia seeds? I want to have freckles”.’

Meghan describes Archie as a ‘sweet child’ and says she ‘always’ wanted to be a mother

Meghan Markle described her son Archie as a ‘sweet child’ and said that she had always wanted to be a mother.

The Duchess of Sussex opened up about her family a number of times in the lifestyle show, which features cooking, crafting and hosting tips, with Archie and Lilibet coming up regularly in conversation.

The former royal says that she knew from when she was a girl that she wanted to be a mother.

She said: ‘I’d receive my allowance and I’d go to Kmart and buy a real diaper bag. I’d want a real diaper bag to take care of my doll. I always wanted to be mom. I love it. It’s better even than I expected.

‘The longest I went without being around our kids was almost three weeks. I was not well.’

She says that her son Archie, who is sixth in line to the throne, is a gentle boy. ‘He’s like the most tender, sweet child of all time,’ she says.

Duchess of Sussex reveals what she MISSES about living in the UK

Meghan Markle appeared nostalgic as she revealed what she misses about living in the UK.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle left the UK and their roles as senior royals in 2020 for a new life in sunny Montecito.

The former actress has not set foot in the UK since September 2022, when the couple were on a charity visit and the Queen died.

She told Tan France, who was born in Doncaster: ‘One of the things I miss most about the UK is the radio stations.’ Magic FM was her favourite of them.

Teased that it is a ‘grandma’ station, she says that her new favourite station to listen to in the car is called ‘Mom Jeans’ and plays vintage soft rock.

Meghan Markle reveals who said ‘I love you’ first

Eagerly recalling their love story on the new season, Meghan revealed that it was indeed Harry who uttered the three special words – ‘I love you’ – first, shortly after they began dating in 2016.

As for Meghan herself, she confessed she knew Harry was a keeper on just their third date – a week-long safari trip to Botswana.

In the third episode, Queer Eye presenter Tan France asked her if there was a specific moment she knew the relationship was ‘the real thing’.

Meghan said: ‘Yes, that was on our third date. We met in Botswana and we camped for five days together. You really get to know each other when you’re in a little tent together and it’s like – what is that outside the tent?’

‘That’s an elephant. Are we going to be safe? Yeah, you’re safe. OK.’

France then asked who said the ‘L word’ first – and the Duchess once more reminisced about their early days together.

‘He told me,’ Meghan confessed. And when France noted, ‘You’re starting to blush,’ Meghan joked: ‘She’s still got it.’
