Meghan Markle has sent the internet into meltdown with her upcoming Netflix show – With Love, Meghan – after a trailer was released by the streaming giant.

However, one part of the trailer has sparked many comments as royal fans spotted a link between Meghan and her sister-in-law Kate, Princess of Wales.

Fans spotted that Meghan, 43, and Kate, 42, both share the same passion – beekeeping.

In one part of the trailer, Meghan is seen wearing a beekeeping suit as she collected honey.

It’s a hobby that Kate also has, fans spotted. The Princess of Wales has been pictured tending to her own beehive at Anmer Hall in Norfolk in 2023 to mark World Bee Day.

Seriously?? Is there anything she won’t copy from the Princess of Wales?!

She’s also known for producing her own honey.

In 2021, Kate opened up about her hobby during a visit to the wildlife garden at the Natural History Museum.

She asked a group of schoolchildren: “Would you like to try some? I’ve got one spoon each. This came specially from my beehive. See if it tastes the same as at home.

“Does it taste like honey from the shops? Does it taste like flowers?”

Sharing their thoughts on X, fans were quick to spot the link between Meghan and Kate. One person said: “Always got to copy Princess Catherine…”

Another wrote: “Seriously?? Is there anything she won’t copy from the Princess of Wales?!”

Someone else added: “Well, she has to copy Catherine!”

“It’s exactly the kind of content the world needs right now. I can’t wait.”

Another person said: “I’m super excited for this. I’ll be watching. Welcome back Meghan.”

Meanwhile, a third commented: “Everything about this is beautiful.”
