Every Reference Meghan Markle Makes to Prince Harry and 2 Kids in Netflix’s ‘With Love, Meghan’

Meghan Markle offers glimpses into her Montecito, California life on Netflix’s With Love, Meghan — and she can’t resist praising her family dynamics.

Meghan, 43, relocated to California in 2020 with her husband, Prince Harry, after they stepped down from their duties as senior working royals. Now, they maintain a somewhat private life with son Prince Archie, 5, and daughter Princess Lilibet, 3.

In addition to parenthood, Meghan has rediscovered her passions for lifestyle trends, cooking and gardening, all of which she explores in With Love while rubbing shoulders with an array of famous friends.

“I’ve always loved taking something pretty ordinary and elevating it,” Meghan said in a trailer for the docuseries. “Surprising people with moments that lets them know I was thinking of them.”

Keep scrolling for a complete guide of every reference Meghan made on With Love to Harry, Archie and Lili:

A Mom’s Always Prepared

In the debut episode, Meghan made homemade bath salts out of arnica, lavender and pink Himalayan sea salt.

“We have a lot of Arnica in my house,” she said. “Toddler life! Lots of bumps and bruises.”

During Meghan’s DIY process, she revealed that her former Suits makeup artist Daniel Martin was due for a visit and gushed that Archie and Lili call him “Uncle Daniel.”

“He was in my life for the before, during and after, shall we say,” she said, subtly referring to her life as the Duchess of Sussex.

An Aromatic Home

As Meghan harvested berries to make her As Ever jam, she gushed in episode 2 that the fruit would impress Archie and Lili.

“My kids will come home smelling sweetness,” the duchess said, also detailing how her brood likes her bacon-filled frittata for breakfast. “When I’m cooking bacon, my kitchen very immediately becomes full of [my] husband and three dogs. My bacon brings all the boys to the yard.” (Meghan and Harry are proud pet parents to canines Pula and Mia, while beagle Guy died ahead of the With Love premiere.)

“I take a lot of pride in making breakfast for my family,” Meghan added. “The morning’s fast, gotta get the kids to school.”

Harry’s Eating Preferences

While chatting with guest Mindy Kaling in episode 2, Meghan revealed how Harry seasons his food.

“I have a family, a husband who no matter what meal is put in front of him, before he tastes it, always puts salt on,” she said. “So, I try to undersalt.”

Kaling chimed in, joking, “I love knowing that your husband likes it salty!”

Meghan also revealed that Harry refers to ladybugs as “ladybirds.”

Harry Makes a Cameo

As Meghan makes a balloon arch in episode 2, Harry pops in — albeit off-camera — to ask, “What’s going on, my love?”

Meghan had previously made a similar archway for Archie’s first birthday in 2020.

“Making a balloon arch looks like a lot of work,” she explained. “You can say you did it for your kids.”

Harry returned in episode 8 to attend a brunch alongside Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland. The duke arrived, bestowing a flurry of kisses on his wife.

“Are the greens from the garden?” Well done! You did a great job,” he gushed. “I love it.”

Meghan’s Preferred Last Name

Meghan jokingly responded to Kaling calling her “Meghan Markle” throughout the visit.

“It’s so funny you keep saying ‘Markle.’ You know, it’s Sussex now,” she said. “You have kids and you go, ‘I share my name with my children.’ I didn’t know how meaningful it would be to me but it just means too much to go, ‘This is our family name. Our little family now.’”

Meghan and Harry were given the titles of Duchess and Duke of Sussex, respectively, by Queen Elizabeth II when they got married in 2018. (The long-reigning queen, Harry’s paternal grandmother, died in 2022.)

All About Balance

“When you’ve had kids you’re used to balancing things on your hip,” Meghan said in the third episode, getting ready to welcome chef Roy Choi into her kitchen.

Healthy Eaters

Meghan later told Choi that she often makes a crudité platter for Archie and Lili.

“We have them every day because that’s how our kids love eating vegetables,” she said.

In episode 5, she offered more insight into how she gets the kids to sample veggies.

“There are ways to make store-bought things look and taste even better,” she said. “Even for our kids — why they love eating vegetables is because it looks colorful and fun.”

Lili’s a Budding Dancer

As Meghan and Choi sampled the fruits of their labor, the former Suits actress did a brief jig.

“My daughter does the same thing when she likes something she’s eating,” Meghan quipped. “She looked [like she] sways a little bit.”

Archie Takes After Mama

While making hibiscus sun tea for lunch with friend Delfina Blaquier in episode 4, Meghan revealed how Archie has started to follow her culinary lead.

“[Growing up,] I was taking a bag of tea … and putting it in a mason jar or a jar that once held spaghetti sauce and putting it in the sun and sitting there and waiting for it to change color,” Meghan said. “Funny enough, [it] is what Archie does now.”

Double Date Vibes

Blaquier is married to polo player Nacho Figueras, who is one of Harry’s close friends.

“Our husbands will be so jealous that we had this meal without them,” Meghan joked to Blaquier about their episode 4 picnic spread.

Lili Is All About Pink

While visiting a flower market in episode 5, Meghan revealed her daughter’s colorway preferences.

“[There’s] a lot of pink — Lili would love that,” she gushed.

Arranging Bouquets

Meghan started taking an interest in the art of floral arranging during her 2019 baby shower for Archie. While she gets to work, she noted that Lili likes to remind her to clean up as she goes.

“Lili made a song,” Meghan teased in episode 5. “‘Clean as you go! Clean, clean clean!’”

Family Time

In episode 5, Meghan detailed a recent “family vacation” and praised Archie for catching two trout while fishing. She and Harry then used the fish for dinner.

“[They] loved it,” Meghan recalled. “It was very sweet.”

For Meghan, she’s found her relationship with cooking has “changed” since having kids.

“It’s so much a part of what I want them to learn and to have these great formative memories of being with me, like, ‘Oh, mama used to make this!’” she recalled. “H is a great cook [and makes a] really great breakfast.”

When Meghan makes family meals, meanwhile, she opts to “sprinkle” chia seeds into pancakes and salads.

Lili’s a Doll

In episode 5, Meghan opened up about one of her daughter’s most cherished toys.

“Lili got a doll that was, I don’t remember who gave it to her,” she recalled. “She has a little baguette, she has a little cheese and she’s called Stella Al Fresco!”

Meghan also enjoys working in the kitchen with her little girl.

“Lili and I made [a preserves] batch together,” Meghan recalled. “[She said,] ‘No, mama I’ll do it. I’ll stir it, I’ll mash it.’ She’s proud. That part felt good!”

Getting Honest

During episode 7, Meghan and her “dear friend” Vicky Tsai, the founder of Tatcha skincare, addressed how she dealt with mom guilt.

“Just because you can’t do everything doesn’t mean you don’t want to do some things. Some things is where a lot of that love can come in,” Meghan said. “You’re not losing extra credit — you’re not losing the gold star by not making the dumpling wrapper.”

An Egg-cellent Addition

Meghan gave Tsai a harvest basket, which featured eggs that bore the label “Archie’s Chick Inn.” (As seen in Harry and Meghan’s bombshell CBS interview in 2021, they have a backyard chicken coop named in their son’s honor.)

In episode 8, Meghan explains that most of the chickens had been rescued from factory farms save for a few, which were gifted. Two of the present ones, according to Meghan, were “named Phil and Jill” by Archie and Lili.

“It’s fun for kids and adults,” Meghan added. “If a morning starts like this, you think about your day differently.”

With Love, Meghan is now streaming on Netflix.
