Meghan Markle’s Netflix holiday special is just around the corner. Ahead of the episode’s December 3rd drop, Meghan shared the first trailer for With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration.

Featuring in the trailer include Prince Harry, tennis superstar Naomi Osaka, celebrity chef Tom Colicchio, restaurateur Will Guidara, and Meghan’s close friends Kelly Zajfen and Lindsay Roth. Osaka’s presence is surprising, but in 2021, the tennis star revealed that Meghan was one of the famous figures who reached out following her mental health break from the sport.

“This December, join Meghan in Montecito for a magical holiday celebration,” Prince Harry and Meghan’s Archewell Productions said in a statement when the special was announced earlier this year. “Together, friends and family deck the halls, create holiday feasts, craft heartfelt gifts, and share lots of laughs – with simple how-tos to follow at home. It’s a holiday wonder with warmth, tradition, and a generous dose of joy.”

At the end of October, the Duchess of Sussex’s As Ever brand launched its first holiday collection, which features a mulling spice kit, honey, candles, and of course, more wine and spreads. “Every elegant gift and epicurean delight in our Holiday Collection shares the joyful, welcoming feeling the holidays bring to our founder’s family home, and invites you to bring that same warmth and beauty to yours,” the brand’s newsletter read earlier this month. “From the golden glimmer of raw honeycomb to the sweet aroma of spiced cider, every treat and treasure in the collection adds beauty and warmth to special occasions and cozy moments alike—because gathering is the greatest gift of all.”

Meghan Markle is ready to spread some holiday cheer.

On Monday, Nov. 10, the release date was announced for the Duchess of Sussex’s Netflix special, With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration.

“Embrace traditions and make new ones this holiday season. With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration arrives December 3rd on @netflix ✨” the announcement, shared on Meghan’s Instagram page, stated.

A new photo accompanied the announcement, showing the Duchess of Sussex, 44, wearing a green dress as she lit a candle on a table decorated for the holidays.

A previous statement said, “This December, join Meghan in Montecito for a magical holiday celebration,” referencing the California town where she lives with Prince Harry and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

“Together, friends and family deck the halls, create holiday feasts, craft heartfelt gifts, and share lots of laughs – with simple how-tos to follow at home,” it continued. “It’s a holiday wonder with warmth, tradition, and a generous dose of joy.”

Meghan Markle attended a star-studded dinner in Los Angeles on Wednesday, Oct. 15 – and she provided wine from her lifestyle brand As ever.

The Duchess of Sussex, 44, attended the “A Seat At The Table” dinner in L.A., hosted by entrepreneur Emma Grede. The dinner was held at designer Kelly Wearstler’s home, with a meal prepared by plant-based chef Camilla Marcus. The event was planned by Stephanie Horton, and sponsored by Shop by Google.

Grede, 43, shared a series of photos from the event on Thursday, Oct. 16. In the photos, Meghan wears a chic two-piece tan suit paired with a white shirt, gold chain necklace by Aurate, and her hair slicked back. She completed the look with a pair of pointed-toe black Balenciaga heels.

The Duchess of Sussex previously appeared on Grede’s Aspire with Emma Grede podcast in June. In the episode, Meghan reflected on the candid Instagram video of her dancing in the hospital delivery room with husband Prince Harry, 40, which she posted on June 4 to celebrate their daughter Princess Lilibet’s 4th birthday.

Meghan told Grede — founding partner and chief product officer of SKIMS and CEO and co-founder of Good American — that she was excited to share more of her true self online, echoing Grede’s belief that authenticity is the key to success.

“You have to be authentic,” Meghan, who launched her lifestyle brand As ever, earlier this year, said, before asking with a laugh, “Did you see my ‘Baby Momma’ dance?”

Grede, who was born and raised in London and lives in L.A. with her husband, Swedish entrepreneur Jens Grede, and their four children, said she had: “We maybe watched it like 20 times yesterday, and I was like, is that, is that her? Is that Prince Harry there with the fingers…I was like, okay…good on Harry, let’s go. But that’s you, right? Like that’s you in a way that we kind of haven’t been able to see you before.”

The candlelit table spread featured tall black candelabras and intricate cherry blossom floral arrangements. Among the starry guests were Rachel Zoe, former Netflix CMO Bozoma Saint John, Russian tennis pro Maria Sharapova, author and former US Ambassador to the Commonwealth of the Bahamas Nicole Avant, Phlur creative director and influencer Chriselle Lim, makeup artist and beauty founder Danessa Myricks, and more.

“In a city built on big dreams and even bigger ambition, one truth remains, success is never built alone,” Grede began in the caption of her Instagram post. “For too long, we’ve watched how men in business have mastered this: making deals over dinner, sharing opportunities over a game, and opening doors for one another in rooms we can’t always see.”

Grede continued, “This dinner series is about making that energy ours. About women coming together to share openly, trade resources, and help each other get shit done. Because when women choose to collaborate, to champion each other, and to speak honestly about the highs and the hard parts, we don’t just change our own stories. We change what’s possible for every woman who follows.”

“Here’s to more seats, more voices, and more women leading, building, and owning their power,” she added.

Meghan appeared on stage at the 2025 Fortune Most Powerful Women Summit yesterday (October 14) in Washington D.C., where she discussed her expansion of her lifestyle brand As Ever, the fate of her Netflix show With Love, Meghan, her relationship to social media, and women in business.

She wore a silky ivory shirt with billowing sleeves and an open collar from Gabriela Hearst (an M.M. fave), and a matching leather pencil skirt by Brochu Walker, with nude beige pumps that feature a double ankle strap from Altuzarra.

Meghan took the moment to share more details of a forthcoming holiday special episode of her Netflix series, With Love, Meghan. Recalling her days wrapping gifts at her job at Paper Source when in between auditioning for roles, the Duchess said it was a “full circle” moment of sorts—her present-wrapping techniques will feature in the show.

“The holiday special is coming out in November and it’s a really good one,” she said, when asked if we can expect a third season. “So we’re able to say eight episodes for two seasons—that’s a lot of work.”

“And having done Suits for seven years, I remember what goes into production—how much people want content in different sizes. So what we’re testing out now. It’s amazing to be able to sit and watch a show for 30 minutes, but how can I give you a recipe in two minutes and be able to share that with you? And how that continues to grow As Ever.”

“[I’m] exploring all the options of what that could look like,” she added, seemingly hinting at more short-form content. (Like her growing commitment to posting IG reels seems to suggest).

She also shared about her “complicated relationship to social media”—Meghan took a social media hiatus last year and returned in January—parsing its importance for the growth of her business and connection to followers, and the negative comments.

“We’re going to continue to expand the footprint in the social and digital space for the brand,” she said of As Ever. She said she keeps the comments off for her own “self preservation,” but finds posting handwritten notes a good way to connect to people.

Across the summit, Meghan is also joined by former vice president Kamala Harris and Selena Gomez—both also women with lots to say on Meghan’s themes and the world of business, with their own penchants for the fall suit and sleek tailoring.
