This Morning stars Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley shared their opinions as they tried a dish from Meghan Markle’s recipes

This Morning duo Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard didn’t hold back their reviews as they sampled a creation from Meghan Markle’s recipes from her new Netflix series.

During one instalment, Meghan, 43, is seen whipping up a breezy one-pot family meal. ITV’s morning show hosts took it upon themselves to recreate the culinary delight, attempting Meghan’s very own Single-Skillet Spaghetti, a quirky take on cooking pasta with all ingredients in a single pot.

Inviting Irish chef Clodagh McKenna onto This Morning, the pair set the stage for Clodagh to present her version of the Duchess’ recipe, prepared to precise detail as demonstrated on Netflix, with the cook hitting pause to capture every step.

Upon serving the dish, the TV chef implored: “So have a taste of this and think ‘is this a delicious pasta?'” Emphasising the TV-worthy quality, she added: “Because if this is on television it should be a delicious pasta”, reports Wales Online.

Viewers on X were evidently split down the middle by the show’s content as one observer quipped: “Netflix paid a lot of money just to let us know Meghan Markle doesn’t know how to cook pasta.”

Another fan made light of the situation: “Next she’ll show us how to make frozen pizza,” and yet another critic added: “She overcooked the noodles.”

However, some disagreed, with one writing: “The pasta looks fine in the end, but I think Italians screamed at their TVs when she poured water into the sauce,” while another declared: “It looked delicious to me.”

This Morning airs weekdays on ITV1, from 10am.
