The premiere of Meghan Markle’s new Netflix show, “With Love, Meghan,” has been postponed to March. The delay was made at the request of Markle herself, the Duchess of Sussex, due to the ongoing devastation caused by the wildfires in Los Angeles, as announced by the streaming platform in a recent release. Markle expressed gratitude to Netflix for supporting the decision to delay the launch, allowing her to focus on assisting those affected by the wildfires in her home state of California.
The first trailer for “With Love, Meghan” debuted on Jan. 2, showcasing Markle engaging in various activities such as gardening, cooking, and spending time with celebrity friends. The series aims to capture moments of joy rather than perfection, as highlighted in the trailer featuring actress Mindy Kaling and celebrity chef Roy Choi.
The wildfires, which began on January 7, have rapidly intensified in size due to severe weather conditions and have resulted in significant destruction. The fires have burned over 12,000 structures and stretched across 37,000 acres, with a death toll of 24 individuals according to the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s office. The fires have also affected the entertainment industry, leading to production delays for shows like “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” and others.
Celebrities, including Paris Hilton, Billy Crystal, and Jennifer Garner, have been personally impacted by the wildfires, with many losing their homes. The devastation has prompted a sense of urgency in the community to offer support and assistance to those affected by the crisis.
