Meghan Markle and Gwyneth Paltrow have put an end to rumours of a feud between them in a surprise joint appearance on social media.
The Duchess of Sussex, 43, and the Goop founder, 52, shocked fans on Tuesday as they appeared together in an Instagram video.
The unexpected collaboration came during one of Paltrow's regular Q&A sessions with her 8.7 million followers.
The pair addressed speculation about a supposed rift that had been circulating on social media in recent days.

During the Instagram Q&A, one follower asked Paltrow if she was "comprehending the Meghan Markle beef that social media says you two have?"
"I genuinely do not understand this at all whatsoever," Paltrow responded whilst filming in the kitchen of her Los Angeles home.
She then turned to someone off-camera and asked: "Do you understand this?"
In a surprising moment, Paltrow panned her iPhone camera to reveal the Duchess of Sussex sitting beside her at the kitchen counter.

The video quickly captured the attention of fans of both women.
Meghan playfully shrugged at Paltrow's question, appearing equally confused about the rumoured tension.
The Duchess was seen comfortably enjoying a slice of pie at Paltrow's kitchen table during the brief but telling exchange.
Their relaxed demeanour contradicted any notion of animosity between the two entrepreneurs.

The video showed the women at ease in each other's company, effectively dismissing the social media speculation with their joint appearance.
Neither appeared to understand the basis for the supposed conflict discussed online.
The rumours appear to have intensified after Paltrow posted an Instagram video using Natalie Cole's "This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)" - a song associated with Meghan's Netflix series "With Love, Meghan".
Paltrow had previously addressed speculation in a Vanity Fair interview published on March 18.
