Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, has made her much-anticipated return to the small screen with a new cooking and lifestyle show that premiered on Netflix this Tuesday. Titled as an innovative offering in lifestyle programming, this eight-episode series is filmed at a picturesque property near her home in sunny Montecito, California.
The show positions Meghan, 43, as a modern domestic goddess, embracing the joys of cooking, crafting, and entertaining. In one memorable episode, she declares, “Love is in the details, gang,” as she demonstrates how to prepare her own lavender towels, showcasing her creative flair.
Netflix has pitched the series as “inspiring,” emphasizing its role in reimagining the genre of lifestyle programming. The show is directed by Michael Steed, known for his work on the critically acclaimed “Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown.” Meghan serves as the executive producer, bringing her unique vision to life.
The series is loosely organized around a series of creative projects, such as teaching a friend how to make bread, hosting a game night, and planning a delightful brunch. Throughout these activities, Meghan offers practical tips and insights, inviting viewers to join her on this journey of creativity and connection.
One of the central themes of the show is encapsulated in Meghan's words: “We’re not in the pursuit of perfection. We’re in the pursuit of joy.” This philosophy resonates throughout the episodes, especially as she prepares dishes like crepes, emphasizing the pleasure and fulfillment that comes from home cooking.
It has been nearly five years since Meghan and her husband, Prince Harry, officially stepped back from their royal duties in Britain. Now firmly established in Southern California, the couple is enjoying family life with their two children: Prince Archie, who is 5, and Princess Lilibet, who is 3.
This exciting new series not only showcases Meghan's culinary skills but also offers a glimpse into her life as a mother and a creative individual, making it a must-watch for fans and lifestyle enthusiasts alike. Remember to check out the series on Netflix and immerse yourself in the delightful world that Meghan has crafted.
