Meghan Markle is back on our screens with her latest Netflix series, *With Love, Meghan*. The trailer has dropped, showcasing a mix of Hollywood pals, glamorous shots, and some seemingly “authentic” moments. However, speculation is already buzzing about whether the recipes featured in her show are, in fact, her own.

 

You might think that with all her talk of authenticity, Meghan would create something original. Instead, the internet is ablaze with questions like, “How many of Cory Vitiello’s recipes will Meghan borrow this time?” Cory, a celebrity chef and Meghan’s ex-boyfriend before Prince Harry, has sparked curiosity due to the timing of Meghan’s sudden passion for “elevated yet simple cuisine,” which some find suspiciously convenient.

The trailer is packed with “relatable Meghan moments” – from squeezing lemon juice into her eye to knocking over baked goods in a calculated “oopsie.” Of course, it wouldn’t be complete without a classic Harry hug at the end, both sipping mimosas like life is straight out of Pinterest. Hollywood friends like Mindy Kaling and Abigail Spencer also make appearances, sampling Meghan’s culinary creations. Mindy even describes the experience as “one of the most glamorous moments” of her life. Really, Mindy? Eating a salad with Meghan beats all the red carpets?

Now let’s address the elephant in the room: the allegations of stolen recipes. Meghan’s critics claim she has a history of “borrowing” ideas for her cookbook and now her show. Remember that ladybug Caprese appetizer that made headlines in 2018? Fans are convinced it’s making a comeback on *With Love, Meghan*. Chefs like Cory Vitiello pour their hearts, souls, and sleepless nights into crafting original recipes. If Meghan is passing off someone else’s work as her own, it’s not just unoriginal—it’s outright fraudulent.

What is it about Meghan and her obsession with authenticity? Everything must be “country this” and “authentic that.” The bread? Country. The butter? Authentic. The avocados? You get the picture. It feels like she’s trying so hard to sell the narrative of being a self-made chef that it veers into cringe territory.

And then there are the inevitable sweet nods to her children. You can already imagine the heartwarming anecdotes about Archie or Lilibet helping make these recipes. Cue the carefully orchestrated shots of tiny hands sprinkling flour while Meghan beams like she’s running for PTA president.

Let’s not forget Meghan’s infamous claim of being “43% Nigerian.” Will the show feature traditional Nigerian dishes? Perhaps a touching monologue about teaching her children to embrace their heritage through food? Or will this be another missed opportunity to highlight real culture in favor of glossy, Instagram-ready moments?

As for Cory Vitiello, this might be his time to speak out. If Meghan is indeed using his recipes without credit, the world deserves to know. A Netflix cooking show is a far cry from the genuine artistry of a chef, and if Meghan is simply attaching her name to someone else’s work, it’s time to call her out.

 

In the end, *With Love, Meghan* might turn out to be yet another exercise in branding over substance. But let’s be honest—the drama is bound to be entertaining. After all, nothing says entertainment like a duchess trying to appear relatable while potentially plagiarizing recipes.
