Meghan Markle reveals an unusual hobby that she shares with sister-in-law Princess Kate Middleton in her new Netflix show.
In the opening scene of With Love, Meghan, which premiered on Tuesday, March 4, the Duchess of Sussex wears a beekeeper’s suit and harvests honey from her personal apiary.
“I’ve got good vibes. Good vibes for good hives,” Meghan tells viewers.
“It’s like also that little reminder to do something that scares you a little bit. I think that’s part of it, but I’m trying to stay in the calm of it. Because it’s beautiful to be this connected,” she adds.

“Would you like to try some? This came specially from my beehive. Does it taste like honey from the shops? Does it taste like flowers?” Kate asked children at the event, according to the Daily Mail’s royal editor Rebecca English.
The hobby is also beloved by King Charles III. After visiting the king’s Highgrove estate in June 2024, David Beckham told BBC News he exchanged “beekeeping tips” with the monarch.
