Back in 2020, Meghan Markle and her husband Prince Harry officially stepped down from their roles as senior members of the UK royal family to live an independent life in the US. And now, after a hiatus of five years, Meghan is back on Instagram. A few days back Meghan not only announced her comeback on social media but also shared a short video about her upcoming cooking show titled ‘With Love, Meghan‘, wherein the Duchess of Sussex will give a glimpse of her quiet life in the US.
However, it seems like the trailer of Meghan’s new show ‘With Love, Meghan’ hasn’t gone too well. Reports suggest that Meghan is facing quite some criticism and trolling online for her new Netflix documentary. However, it’s noted that Oprah Winfrey has emerged as one of the strongest supporters of Meghan by speaking in praise of her upcoming show.

Showing support for her “friend” Meghan, Oprah Winfrey recently wrote on Instagram, “We’re about to see more of Meghan Markle in 2025! The Duchess of Sussex announced that she will have a new cooking show on Netflix.” Oprah even shared the link of Meghan’s new show’s trailer on her social media handle and urged her fans to watch it.

Harry said he stopped receiving any financial support from his family in “the first quarter of 2020,” the same time that the couple released their statement that they were working toward becoming financially independent.According to King Charles III’s financial report from 2021, the offices of Prince William and Kate Middleton continued to be paid for from His Royal Highness’s private income.
Ever since Meghan Markle and her husband Prince Harry gave an explosive interview to Oprah for her show, wherein the Sussexes allegedly accused the royal family for racism and other things, Oprah seems to have become one of Harry and Meghan’s greatest allies. So much so that in 2024, Meghan was seen in one of Oprah’s book club sessions which was held at a Summerland bookstore. More recently, Oprah also shared that she was given a care set by “her neighbour, and friend Meghan” for the holiday season.
Talking about the Tatcha set that Meghan gifted her, Oprah said, as per reports,”I loved it because it was sent to me by a neighbour, friend actually, Meghan Markle… If you were to come in my house right now and film my bathtub, you would see these three things.”
Meanwhile, it’s not just Oprah who has come ahead to support Meghan for her new show. In fact, US Chef Adrian Lipscombe too spoke up against Meghan’s critics in a social media post.
