Meghan Markle Reveals Unusual Hobby She Shares With Kate Middleton in Netflix Show

In her new Netflix series, with Love, Meghan, Meghan Markle unveils a shared passion with her sister-in-law, Kate Middleton: beekeeping. In the opening episode, Meghan dons a beekeeper’s suit and tends to a live hive, expressing her excitement by exclaiming, “Look at how much honey we have!”

This interest mirrors that of the Princess of Wales, who maintains beehives at her country residence, Anmer Hall. In May 2023, Kate’s office shared a photograph of her in beekeeping attire tending to her hives, highlighting the importance of bees in our ecosystem.

Beekeeping is a tradition embraced by several members of the royal family. Queen Camilla produces honey from hives at her Wiltshire home, Ray Mill House, which has been available for charitable sale at Fortnum & Mason. King Charles III also maintains beehives across various royal properties, including Windsor Castle and Highgrove House.

In with Love, Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex explores various creative pursuits, such as cooking, crafting, and beekeeping, aiming to foster connection and share personal tips. The series, part of a multiyear deal with Netflix, features Meghan engaging in activities that promote joy and togetherness.

Through this shared hobby, Meghan and Kate highlight a mutual commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship, underscoring the significance of bees in maintaining ecological balance.
