Meghan Markle’s Netflix show has sparked an odd controversy, with many believing there's a post-production mistake that was made.
The Duchess of Sussex’s hit new series of her Netflix show With Love, Meghan, has been popular with fans ever since it dropped onto the streaming service on August 26th.
The show sees Meghan invite friends and famous guests to her Montecito, California estate, while she cooks and makes trinkets for her loved ones.
It launched in April this year and is a highly watched show by fans who wanted to get a glimpse of her life after leaving the Royal Family.

We’ve seen her correct her last name (Sussex), give up a secret about Prince Harry, and more.
However, Markle has seemingly been caught in an odd editing 'fail' after fans noted a noise had been added to her Bloomberg interview.
When the Duchess of Sussex joined Emily Chang in an interview on The Circuit to line up with the release of the second series of her show, fans couldn’t help but point out on awkward thing.
The pare ate smashed burgers and drank pints of beer, while Meghan talked about her time as part of the royal family and also behind-the-scenes As ever information.
But it was after Meghan cracked a joke, that viewers couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off.
Meghan said of her confidence: “I think the more comfortable you get with yourself, certainly age helps. I'll be 44 - it's great!”
The pair laughed...well, Meghan laughed, and a sharp bark of laughter was heard as Chang was faced forward.
But it didn’t seem to come from the journalist.
This led people to believe it was a laugh track, edited in post-production.
One person said: “Who is laughing? That didn’t come from Emily Chang? Her body doesn’t move?”
Another theorised: “one of the crew??”
Another asked: “Definitely sounds like an intense burst of laughter dubbed in' and 'She's using laugh tracks?”
One more noted: “That was so strange!!”
While nobody knows if it was actually edited, social media commenters seem sure that it was.
Unaware that the moment would cause controversy, Meghan continued to Chang: “And I just think there is a lot of value to when you anchor into your own knowing, then you're telling your own story. You're telling your story and how you show up in the world, what you do.
"You actually don't need to say anything, you can show who you are.”
During the interview, she explained how she relaunched her brand, and what it means to her: “As Ever essentially means as it's always been, and if you've followed me since 2014 with The Tig, you know I've always loved cooking and crafting and gardening - this is what I do.
“And I haven't been able to share it with you in the same way for the past few years, but now I can so, as things are starting to trickle out there, I wanted you to hear it from me first.”
