Meghan Markle's gift to Oprah Winfrey features on her annual “favourite things” list.

Oprah Winfrey, 70, neighbour of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, has included a body care kit gifted to her by Meghan in her annual list of “favourite things”.


Oprah said: “This is a favourite favourite thing, with the scent of a forest sent to me by my neighbour Meghan.”

“If you were to come to my house, you’d see this body wash, body oil and body milk right by the tub.”

The set includes those three elements, all scented with Tatcha’s Forest Awakening Essential Oil blend.

The product describes itself as the blend of cedar, hiba and hinoki oils helps “reduce stress, lift mood and improve wellbeing.”

Oprah's annual gift guide, which has been in existence since the days of her former talk show - The Oprah Winfrey Show - released its 2024 list on November 1.

Winfrey previously said in 2020: “Meghan and Harry do not need my help figuring out what’s best for them."

She added: “I care about them both and support whatever decisions they make for their family.”

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped back from official royal duties in January 2020 and moved to California six months later.

A year later, the pair sat down with Oprah for a bombshell interview with Meghan opening up on mental health and accusations of racism in the royal family.

During the interview, Meghan said: “I just didn't want to be alive anymore.

Meghan added: “And that was a very clear and real and frightening constant thought."

"I remember how he just cradled me. I said that I needed to go somewhere to get help.

“I said that I've never felt this way before, and I need to go somewhere.

"And I was told that I couldn't, that it wouldn't be good for the institution."
