It follow claims that Meghan copied a similar cookery show trailer

Meghan Markle has been accused of copying a LA food blogger during her Netflix cookery series.

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, released 'With Love, Meghan' on the streaming platform on March 4.


During one episode, the Duchess of Sussex is seen in the kitchen explaining how to lay out fruit to make a "Fruit Rainbow."

However, fans were quick to point out that the design was almost identical to a LA food blogger, Meg Quinn who posts under "Ain't too proud Meg".

A social media post wrote: "Meghan Markle copied food blogger Ain't too proud to Meg.

"She couldn't even change up some of the fruits!"

Both recipes included colourful fruits laid out in an arch shape.

Fans of the duchess have defended the royal claiming that similarities between designs are expected due to the similar content, closeness of the release dates and the tight production schedules.

After Meghan's show launched on March 4, fans expressed their excitement about seeing the royal back on their screens, with one fan writing: "So happy she's back on our tv."

Another user shared: "I just finished it, and I loved."

The accusations of coping follow claims that the mother-of-two copied the trailer for Pamela Anderson's 2024 lifestyle programme trailer.

Viewers claimed that the trailer resembles Pamela's show, "Cooking With Love", with the two shows sharing the phrase "With Love" in their titles.

The TV star released her show in October 2024, just months before Meghan launched the first trailer for "With Love, Meghan".

Both shows, that contain eight episodes with common themes of romance, love and joy, followed the host inviting chefs into the kitchen for family and friends to try out the homecooked meals.

The trailers open with the hosts walking in a garden to admire the produce and feature a similar moment when Pamela and Meghan both double high-fived one of their guests.

Similar dialogue is used, with Pamela explaining how "I just always have wanted to take things to another level", while Meghan similarly declares: "I've always loved taking something pretty ordinary and elevating it."

The 57-year-old model said, "I'm learning a lot", while the duchess also revealed that she's "just learning".

Meghan also caused fan outrage when she was accused of "destroying Italian food" after referring to spaghetti as "noodles" in the new cookery show.
