Harry makes cameo in Meghan’s Netflix Christmas special

The Duke of Sussex has made a cameo appearance in the trailer for the festive edition of his wife’s Netflix series With Love, Meghan.

Harry has not yet featured in Meghan’s programme but appears briefly in the the 65-second clip when he and the duchess share a kiss in a kitchen.

“I love the holiday season,” Meghan says in a voiceover on the trailer, posted to her Instagram on Wednesday.

“It’s about finding time to connect with the people we love, embracing traditions, and making new ones.”

The show, which sees Meghan offer hosting tips while she cooks with celebrity friends, was savaged by critics following its release in March.

A second series was released in August and the Christmas special will arrive on the streaming platform on December 3.

This will coincide with the King’s plans to host a state visit by the president of Germany between December 3 and 5.

Celebrity friends join Meghan once again in the forthcoming special, which sees the duchess trying out festive crafts, decorating and baking.

The duchess is seen adding gifts to red-and-white advent calendars personalised with “Archie” and “Lili” on them, for her children Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, four.

In the trailer, shared as William and Kate attended the Royal Variety Performance on Wednesday evening, Meghan makes crafts with Japanese tennis player Naomi Osaka, cooks with American chef Tom Colicchio and makes wreaths with old friends Kelly Zafjen and Lindsay Roth.

“Being a hostess or a host, it’s about making people feel comfortable,” she says as she makes her own Christmas crackers.

Meghan skips through a Christmas tree farm before choosing her favourite and leaves biscuits and hot chocolate out for Santa by a roaring fireplace.

The show’s launch in March coincided with the unveiling of Meghan’s As Ever brand, which sells products including raspberry jam and flower sprinkles, which she repeatedly promotes throughout the show.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex secured a lucrative contract with Netflix, thought to be worth more than 100 million dollars (£74 million), in 2020, after quitting as senior working royals.

Harry and Meghan announced they had signed a new “multi-year, first-look deal for film and television projects” with the streaming platform in August.

Meghan described the deal as “an incredible sign of the strength of our partnership”, despite rumours the streaming giant may be pivoting away from her and Harry.

At the end of the trailer, viewers are told to “discover more holiday cheer, shop As Ever”.

The new festive range is available on the asever.com website and features a 43g spiced cider mulling spice kit priced at 16 dollars (£12) and a three-pack of spreads in a gift box for 42 dollars (£32).
