The trailer for “With Love, Meghan” offers a charming peek into the warm and welcoming world Meghan has cultivated. It begins with a scene of Meghan in her garden, casually dressed in an apron as she picks fresh produce. The footage then flows effortlessly to her kitchen, where she is seen preparing ingredients for a meal, reflecting her passion for finding happiness in life’s simple pleasures.
“I’ve always loved taking something pretty ordinary and elevating it,” Meghan reveals in the trailer. In one scene, the mother of two is shown cutting into a gorgeous homemade three-layer cake, decorated with fresh strawberries and layered with rich cream. Her voiceover emphasizes her love for thoughtful gestures and her joy in creating special treats for others.
The trailer captures the lively and cheerful tone of the series. It features Meghan laughing alongside friends like Mindy Kaling, enjoying homemade drinks and ice creams, and engaging in heartfelt conversations. Another standout moment shows Meghan trying her hand at beekeeping, harvesting honey with visible delight.
Despite the series’ celebratory and colorful vibe, with its focus on food, fun, and friendship, Meghan warmly reminds viewers, “We’re not in the pursuit of perfection.” She adds, “We’re in the pursuit of joy. Love is in the details.” This heartfelt message is reflected in a touching moment where Prince Harry lovingly wraps Meghan in an embrace as they relax together in their sun-drenched garden.
While the trailer has enchanted some viewers with its promise of love, laughter, and genuine connections, others feel lifestyle shows have become repetitive, with many sharing reasons why they might skip this one.
One unimpressed viewer bluntly expressed their opinion, stating, “Dont [sic] wanna watch it, will put dislike button on it.” Another viewer shared a similar sentiment with, “Defiantly not watching.” Meanwhile, a harsher critic dismissed the show entirely, calling it, “Wont [sic] be watching. Just a money grabber.”
Adding a more personal critique, one commenter wrote, “No one I know will be tuning in. Can’t stand someone who is two faced [sic] and turns their back on not one but two families.” Another critical remark targeted the show’s premise, claiming, “Just flashing her rich, privileged life.”
Some critics also took aim at the originality of the concept, with one user sarcastically commenting, “Martha already did this. Next,” referring to lifestyle icon Martha Stewart’s earlier work. Stewart’s show, Martha Stewart Living, which aired from 1996 to 2004, focused on cooking, gardening, and floral design.
Not all responses were critical. One fan voiced their encouragement, saying, “Congratulations Meghan I will be watching. It sounds great.” Another supporter praised her efforts, stating, “Meghan is thriving and happy, and doing good things. If anyone has a complaint on this. They are in fact tools.”
Adding a more balanced perspective to the discussion, another commenter remarked, “I’ll tune in and have a look. I can’t believe how many people personally know this couple and go on what other people say — and all your families must be perfect.”
Meghan’s eight-episode lifestyle series is more than just a glimpse into her personal growth; it’s also a key component of the $100 million Netflix deal she shares with Prince Harry. Shot in Montecito, California, the show includes appearances by well-known figures such as Mindy Kaling, Roy Choi, Alice Waters, and other celebrity chefs and close friends.
Mindy Kaling shared her excitement about joining Meghan’s show during an interview, revealing that Meghan reached out when she was just two months postpartum. The “Office” actress expressed her enthusiasm for the opportunity to spend time with Meghan and enjoy delicious food.
Despite the show’s theme of welcoming friends and viewers into her home, media reports have disclosed that the filming did not take place at Meghan’s actual residence. Instead, the series was shot in a luxurious estate located about two miles away from where the Duchess lives with Harry and their two children.
This sprawling $8 million property, owned by the prominent Cipolla family, spans eight acres and is surrounded by avocado trees and lemon groves.
The 4,500-square-foot property, owned by renowned philanthropists Tom and Sherrie Cipolla, offers a lavish setting with four bedrooms and four bathrooms. The home is highlighted by elegant French doors that open to a charming patio, a manicured lawn, and breathtaking mountain views.
While Meghan gives viewers a peek into her lifestyle, it’s worth noting that this isn’t her private residence. Instead, she’s showcasing moments of gardening, hosting, and friendship in the Cipolla family’s luxurious home, maintaining her own living space out of the public eye.
That said, this isn’t Meghan’s first foray into the lifestyle industry. Back in 2024, she introduced American Riviera Orchard, a brand centered on home, garden, food, and overall lifestyle products.

Her supporters are excited to see what she has planned next.
