The Duchess of Sussex was seen trying out a hobby known and loved by Princess Kate in her new Netflix show.
Meghan Markle has made headlines across the globe today following the release of a Netflix trailer for her new show “With Love, Meghan”, which was released yesterday.
In the trailer for the new eight-episode series, which will show Meghan cooking and hosting for a number of her celebrity friends, the Duchess of Sussex, 43, could be seen preparing meals from scratch as she spoke about the importance of joy.
While most of the scenes shown were of Meghan in the kitchen of a home she rented for filming, one scene did show the duchess retrieving honey from a beehive.
In the brief clip, Meghan exclaimed: “Look how much honey we have.”
The trailer then continues on, showing just a glimpse of this experience. However, seeing Meghan dressed up for beekeeping is not something royal fans are not used to.

While it is not known whether going to a beehive is something Meghan has done before, it is a well-known hobby of Princess Kate who has her very own beehive at her Amner Hall home in Norfolk, one she frequently visits during half-terms and the summer holiday.
This was first revealed in June 2021 during a visit to The Natural History Museum, where she met with some young children to learn about the Urban Nature Project.
The princess did not turn up to the event empty-handed and brought a jar of her own homemade honey.
Kate asked the children at the event: “Would you like to try some? This came specially from my beehive.”

Just years later, a photo was also shared on the Prince and Princess of Wales’ official social media channels in 2023 of the princess in a beekeeping suit to mark World Bee Day.
The caption read: “We are buzzing about #WorldBeeDay.
“Bees are a vital part of our ecosystem and today is a great opportunity to raise awareness of the essential role bees and other pollinators play in keeping people and the planet healthy.”
The scene of Meghan beekeeping is likely to be shown in more detail when the show airs on Netflix on January 15.
