Next Tuesday (March 4), Meghan‘s new cooking and lifestyle show, With Love, Meghan, will be dropping on Netflix.
However, with just a week to go until the big launch, some people have spotted some similarities between Meghan’s new show, and Pamela Anderson’s.
Baywatch star Pamela Anderson also has a cooking show coming out on Food Network Canada. The show was announced back in 2023. The first teaser was released in October, months before Meghan’s.
The 57-year-old’s show also shares a similar title with Meghan’s – Pamela’s Cooking with Love. It premiered on February 24.
But the similarities don’t just end there…
Similarities between Meghan Markle and Pamela Anderson’s shows
People have also pointed out the similarities in the content and the tone of the two shows.
Both trailers feature the stars walking through their gardens, before inviting chefs into the kitchens for family and friends to try out some homecooked meals.
In Pamela’s trailer, she says: “I love to cook. I just have always wanted to take things to another level.”
In Meghan’s, the duchess says: “I’ve always loved taking something pretty ordinary and elevating it.”
Meghan, 43, and Pamela, 57, are also shown getting their hands dirty in the garden as they harvest fruit and vegetables for their recipes.
People have noticed the similarities – and have taken to social media to point them out.
“If you watch the trailer for Pamela’s new show, it’s a more authentic version of what Meghan was trying to achieve and it looks as though Meghan has copied everything! The trailers are so similar it’s freaky,” one person wrote on X.
