Meghan Markle’s new Netflix show will be ‘inspired by Princess Kate’s parenting’

Meghan Markle is reportedly keen to follow in the footsteps of her sister-in-law Kate Middleton when she starts her new series for Netflix.

Meghan Markle has reportedly taken a leaf out of Kate Middleton’s parenting book for her upcoming Netflix show.

The Duchess of Sussex announced in March that she would be launching her own lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, with a focus on homewares and kitchen accessories, as well as nut butters, jams and conserves.

It was later revealed that Meghan would feature in a new cooking show on Netflix, as part of her and Prince Harry’s whopping £80 million ($100 million) five-year deal with the streaming giant, which would spotlight her new business venture.

Despite the frosty relationship with her sister-in-law, it is said that the Duchess has been “inspired” by Kate’s approach to parenting; specifically, her desire to have her and Prince William’s three children – Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis – alongside her at public appearances.

Meghan and Kate initially had a warm friendship when Harry introduced the former Suits actress to his brother and beloved sister-in-law, but their close bond later deteriorated.

At the time, it was claimed that Meghan had reduced Kate to tears following a disagreement over Princess Charlotte’s flower girl dress, which Kate felt was too large and needed adjustments.

A heated exchange ensued, and palace insiders reported that Kate was left weeping after Meghan was purportedly discourteous towards her.

However, in the bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, the Duchess of Sussex countered by saying it was actually Kate who made her cry, and she had “owned it and apologised”.
