“With Love, Meghan” isn’t a sign-off, it turns out, it’s an opening salvo.

Duchess Meghan’s cooking and lifestyle show has been renewed for a second season, Netflix announced Friday, just days after it premiered. Not only will the program get a second act, but filming for Season Two has already wrapped, according to a release from the streaming giant.

The series, which blends a cooking show format with celebrity interviews, sees Meghan welcome guests to a replica of her Montecito, California estate and dole out tips on entertaining, baking and parenting.

Made in partnership with Archewell Productions, a company founded by Meghan and husband Prince Harry in 2020, the show also serves as a launching pad for As Ever, the Duchess’ lifestyle brand.

In the first crop of episodes, Meghan invites over Mindy Kaling, Los Angeles Chef Roy Choi and skincare founder Vicky Tsai, among others to make potstickers, Korean fried chicken, a rainbow fruit plate for children’s parties and several rounds of mimosas.

This is the royal couple’s second project with Netflix, after “Harry & Meghan” a documentary taking a deeper look at their love story and royal exodus premiered in 2022. This project takes a lighter tone, seeing Meghan revel in the California lifestyle and share intimate moments from the pair’s life there.

“This feels like a new chapter that I’m so excited that I get to share, and I’ve been able to learn from all of you,” Meghan says during the finale episode. “So just thank you for the love and support. And here we go. There’s a business!”

Meghan told People magazine in an interview published Monday that she sees “this spark in (Harry’s) eye when he sees me doing the thing that I was doing when he first met me” in a reference to her former lifestyle blog The Tig, which she shuttered in 2017 after falling for Harry.

“It’s almost like a honeymoon period again,” she said, “because it’s exactly how it was in the beginning when he’d watch me scribbling away, writing newsletters, fine-tuning edits and just really being in the details of it. I think he loves watching as much as I love doing that creative process.”
