Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, is already making waves with her new Netflix lifestyle series, With Love, Meghan.

The show, which premiered its second episode on March 4, features a heartwarming
and entertaining moment between Meghan and special guest Mindy Kaling, and it’s quickly become the talk of social media.
In this viral moment, Kaling, best known for her role on The Office, refers to Meghan as “Meghan Markle” multiple times during their conversation.

In one particularly humorous exchange, Kaling jokes, “I don’t think anyone in the world knows that Meghan Markle has eaten Jack in the Box and loves it.”

Meghan, who is no stranger to public attention, gently corrects her friend, reminding her that she and her family now go by the surname Sussex.

“It’s so funny, too, that you keep saying Meghan Markle. You know I’m Sussex now,” Meghan says with a smile, clearly enjoying the banter. This playful moment highlights the evolution of her identity since her marriage to Prince Harry in 2018.
Meghan goes on to explain how meaningful it is for her to use the Sussex name, especially now that she shares it with their two children—five-year-old Prince Archie and three-year-old Princess Lilibet. “When you have kids and you go, ‘No, I share my name with my children,’ it feels so, I didn’t know how meaningful it would be to me, but it just feels so much. This is our family name, our little family name,” Meghan adds, reflecting on the deeper significance of family bonds.
Kaling, who has been friends with Meghan for years, responds with enthusiasm: “Now I know. And I love it.” Their camaraderie and mutual respect shine through during the entire exchange, making for a genuine and heartfelt conversation that has resonated with viewers.

While Kaling didn’t specifically address the name mix-up during her appearance, she later spoke about the attention the moment garnered. During an appearance on The View on March 6, Kaling commented on the public’s reaction to her time on With Love, Meghan. “I noticed that whenever I do something, anything related to Meghan, it becomes big news,” Kaling remarked. “We were making sandwiches, and then they’ll push in on my face on TikTok, and they’ll be like, ‘Look at how this emotion you felt,’ and I honestly didn’t even remember it because we shot it like nine months ago.”
Despite the viral moments, Kaling expressed how much she enjoyed her time with Meghan. “I loved my time with Meghan,” she said. “I’m also like, ‘Let her promote her show, and I’ll talk about (Kaling’s new show) Running Point.’ It was great, and it’s really fascinating seeing the reaction.”

Kaling also shared how Meghan personally reached out to invite her onto the show. “I think I was two months postpartum, and [Meghan] texted me and was like, ‘Do you want to be in my show?’” Mindy recalled during the 2025 Golden Globes red carpet in January. “When you hang out with Meghan, you know the food is going to be good,” Kaling laughed, explaining that she agreed to travel to Meghan’s Montecito home, where the two spent time in Meghan’s garden and shared a meal. Kaling also praised Meghan’s cooking skills, saying, “It kind of blew me out of the water.”
Kaling further revealed that Meghan’s husband, Prince Harry, is also an impressive cook. “He knows his way around a kitchen,” Kaling shared, giving Harry credit for his culinary skills.
This episode of With Love, Meghan marks just the beginning of what looks to be an engaging and heartwarming series that gives fans an inside look into Meghan’s life and passions. The show is filled with moments of candidness and warmth, and Kaling’s appearance is no exception. Their easy friendship and shared love for food, family, and meaningful conversations will likely keep viewers tuned in for future episodes.

In addition to the lighthearted moments, Meghan’s reflections on her family, identity, and the importance of the Sussex name add a deeper layer of insight into her life. As the series unfolds, audiences can look forward to more personal moments and special guest appearances, making With Love, Meghan a must-watch for those wanting a glimpse into the Duchess of Sussex’s world.
