Meghan Markle’s friend shares rare update about daughter Lilibet

One of Meghan Markle's friends has shared a sweet update about her daughter, Lilibet.

Prince Harry and Meghan welcomed their second child, Lilibet Diana, back in June 2021 after becoming parents to son, Archie, in 2019.

It's widely known that the pair keep their family life as private as possible, especially since they stepped away from the royal family and moved to California in 2020.

Since then, Harry and Meghan share snippets of their family life, as well as their work under their charitable organisation, Archewell Foundation, and other personal projects.

One TV project that Meghan has been working on with Netflix, is a new show set to air later this month, called With Love, Meghan.

According to Netflix, the series will give viewers a chance to ‘join Meghan in the kitchen, garden — and even at the beehive’.

Celebrity guests will include Mindy Kaling, Roy Choi, Alice Waters, and each episode will see Meghan and her guest trading tips and tricks.

Following the release of the trailer, one of Meghan's friends has rushed to defend the Duchess of Sussex, after an article shared by online publication Eater, titled 'I'm already bored by Meghan Markle's new Netflix cooking series', was posted online.

Over on social media, chef Adrian Lipscombe wrote: "How are you going to criticize someone or judge a TV show before it has even aired? @eater, there was a time we looked to you for thoughtful reporting, a pulse on food trends, and some real insight into the food world. But now? This feels like a step down."

Adrian even shared a cute update about Meghan and Harry's daughter, Lilibet, adding: "I’ve had the pleasure of meeting @meghan over food, and let me tell you, she and her well-known significant other are some of the most down-to-earth people I’ve ever met.

"We talked about our families (mostly about our daughters being in their princess phase and the movies they love) and, of course, about food. She didn’t rush the conversation, even though I was taking up her time. She was gracious, engaged, and kind.

"... And let’s talk about the bigger picture here—where are the Black female-led shows and roles in the food world? Representation is already so scarce, and now, a show that has the potential to spotlight food, culture, and storytelling is being torn apart before it even has a chance."

In the comments, people agreed, with one writing: "I’m so excited about her new show, I loved her blog 'The Tig', and this looks like it will be all the things she really likes to do!"

While another added: "THANK YOU!!!! I followed her before Harry, this is very authentic to her."

With Love, Meghan airs on 15 January over on Netflix.
