Meghan Markle shows up at NYC screening of With Love, Meghan: Here’s how fans reacted

Meghan Markle made a surprise appearance at a special screening of her new Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, delighting fans who had gathered for the event in New York City.

The Duchess of Sussex had hinted at her excitement on Instagram before the event. When she entered the room, she was warmly received by the audience, who had no idea she would be attending.

Before making her entrance, Markle, 43, recorded a message, expressing how special the moment was for those who had followed her since The Tig and beyond.

Surprise for fans

Reports suggest that during the event, she remarked that the audience was unaware of her attendance. She then entered the screening room after an episode had aired, asking fans for their thoughts. As soon as they saw her, cheers erupted, and many rushed to embrace the Suits star.

One emotional fan was reportedly comforted as the Duchess gently cradled her face.

In a social media post, Markle expressed appreciation for the supporters who have stood by her for nearly a decade.

Tattoos and gifts

Some of Markle’s most devoted fans took their admiration to the next level, with reports suggesting that several got As Ever tattoos to honour her new brand.

The Duchess was also gifted custom bracelets for herself and her children — Archie, 5, and Lilibet, 3.

The event’s decor was said to reflect Markle’s signature aesthetic, featuring orange crates and floral arrangements under a banner for her Netflix show. Markle later described the evening as magical in an Instagram post.

Return to lifestyle industry

Markle has long been interested in the lifestyle sector. Her blog, The Tig, covered topics such as food, travel and fashion before it was closed in 2017, following the public revelation of her relationship with Prince Harry.

In March 2024, she re-entered the industry, launching a new venture, which was rebranded as ‘As Ever’ in February 2025.

Her latest project with Netflix, With Love, Meghan, which premiered on Tuesday, further expands her lifestyle brand. The eight-episode series sees her as the host, sharing home styling tips and go-to recipes. Friends and family will also make special guest appearances.
