MEGHAN Markle and Gwyneth Paltrow have appeared together in an Instagram video as the pair denied their alleged rivalry.

Rumours had been circling that the pair were in a “war to be US lifestyle queen” following a number of social media clips.

Now, however, it appears the duo are friendly with one another, as they appeared casually in a story on Paltrow’s Instagram account.

In the clip, the Hollywood A-lister could be seen answering a question put forward by one of her followers.

The query asked: “Are you comprehending the Meghan Markle beef that social media says you two have?”

In response, Paltrow quipped: “I genuinely do not understand this at all whatsoever.”

Turning to her right, she asked a person hidden out of frame: “Do you understand this?”

As the camera pans, it is revealed Meghan has been sitting at the same table the entire time, eating some food.

In the comical clip, Meghan shrugs her shoulders in response as she takes a bite of her meal, before bursting into laughter as the video ends.

Just days before this, Paltrow was accused of mocking Meghan Markle again in an Instagram video as the “war to be US lifestyle queen” raged on.

The Goop founder, 52, posted a clip of herself making scones, bacon and eggs in her own kitchen to her social media account on Saturday.

It comes after With Love, Meghan recently hit Netflix with the Duchess of Sussex hiring out a kitchen to cook and entertain guests.

And unlike Meghan, the 52-year-old went make-up free in her stripy PJ’s for her video.

But she used the soundtrack of This Will Be (An Everlasting Love) by Natalie Cole, which also features in Meghan’s project.

Elsewhere Gwyneth flaunted a monogramed mug similar to the one the Duchess used in her show.

Other elements of the video mirrored Meghan’s series, including the actress showing off her jam and the clip featuring her pet dog.

She captioned her video: “My cleaner take on a classic breakfast: gluten-free buttermilk biscuits, not-so-perfectly cooked over-easy eggs, and crispy bacon #boyfriendbreakfast.”

Fans swiftly jumped to the comment section to share their thoughts.

One person said: “Love this. No fake house, fake kitchen, fake hair extensions, fake friends just your beautiful true self. Such a breath of fresh air to see.”

But another fan fought back: “Meghan does not want to be compared, nor does GP.

Many on social media drew parallels between Paltrow’s clips and Meghan’s new showCredit: Instagram
“They’re about unity for all women. And guess what? Gwen has never done this casual before, and Meghan has actually given a 2025 boost to goop.”

Meanwhile a third wrote: “Lol isn’t it this the song they keep using in the Meghan Markle promo?”

To which a fan replied: “yep, love it .. Gwyneth is so genuine what a breath of fresh air compared to Markle.”

Another user said: “Markle is a copy cat ……same town as well.”

The pair’s rumoured war over becoming the US lifestyle queen has been debated on social media throughout this month.

Gwyneth lives in the same Californian town as fellow lifestyle influencer Meghan.

The Oscar-winning actress last week weighed in on the comparisons between them.

She reacted to her rival’s foray into the wellness industry, thanks to the Netflix series With Love, Meghan and its tie-in brand As Ever.

She said: “I was raised to see other women as friends, not foes. I think there’s always more than enough to go around.”
