Meghan posts relaxed garden centre photo hours after show appearance | Royal | News

Meghan Markle shared a new photo to her Instagram story just hours after Masterchef Australia aired Down Under on Sunday evening. The 44-year-old actress filmed scenes for the show during her visit to Australia with Prince Harry in April.

In the new photo she shared on her story instead of her news feed, Meghan looks casual in jeans and a navy blue sweater, holding a yellow coffee cup in her hand. The mother-of-two accessorised with chocolate brown loafers and a black headband, and her hair was styled into a neat low ponytail.

It appears to have been taken at a garden centre, where a basket full of flowers was placed next to Meghan.

In the special episode, Meghan tasked the contestants with creating a meal fit for the Duchess by making a seasonal ingredient the focal point of their plate.

The cooks then had to reveal a personal story or memory related to their chosen item.

The appearance on Masterchef Australia comes just weeks after Meghan’s return to the UK.

Meghan, Harry and their two children, seven-year-old Prince Archie and five-year-old Princess Lilibet, attended a visit to Highgrove House to see King Charles and Queen Camilla on July 10.

Judging by an Instagram post shared by @masterchefau, royal fans didn’t seem too happy to see Meghan appear in the episode.

One added: “How to Take Audiences Away from the Show…”, while another added: “[laughing-face emoji] Bad move in Masterchef.”

The family returned to the United States on July 14 after a visit to England.
