Meghan Markle was brutally savaged by fans after her brand revealed her “top hosting tips”. The Duchess of Sussex’s lifestyle venture, As Ever, shared a new image of its founder and revealed one of her top tips for hosting guests.

Prince Harry’s wife’s tips include having “as much prepped as possible before guests arrive”. Meghan, who relocated to the UK at the end of August, also advises saving one “simple task for the end”. In an Instagram post labelled “Meghan’s Hosting Notes”, her As Ever firm suggested it should be: “Something you can finish in the kitchen while everyone settles in.”

The advice was accompanied by a picture of Meghan tying a white apron around her waist.

Some fans were not impressed with the tips and took to social media to mock the duchess.

One user wrote on X: “She needs to stop pretending she can cook. She’s got no cooking skills whatsoever….she should take some Miralax [laxative] and let that s*** go.”

Another user added: “This woman is insufferable. Full stop.”
