Duchess Meghan's Green Juice Secret: A Morning Ritual or Just a Trend?

In episode six of With Love, Meghan, the Duchess is filmed in her garden picking ingredients for a green juice which she prepares for chef Clare Smyth, who catered the Sussexes' wedding

Meghan Markle's Green Juice Obsession: A Glimpse into Her Private Life

In a recent interview, Meghan Markle revealed her morning routine, which includes hitting the gym at 4 am and sipping on her favorite "natural source of energy" – green juice. However, eagle-eyed fans have been left questioning how often she actually drinks it, given a surprising comment made in part two of her Netflix show With Love, Meghan.

For those who have followed the Duchess's journey, it's no secret that she has long attributed her morning zest to drinking green juice. In fact, back in 2015, while filming Suits, she confessed that she would rather blend some apple, kale, spinach, lemon, and ginger in the morning than reach for a cup of coffee.

Meghan admitted that while she loves drinking green juice, she 'doesn't like the process of juicing' because 'it always felt really messy'

However, as fans tuned into part two of With Love, Meghan, they were left scratching their heads when Meghan revealed that she hasn't juiced in 20 years. The Duchess was filmed in her garden picking ingredients for a green juice, which she then prepared for chef Clare Smyth, who catered the Sussexes' wedding.

But here's the kicker: Meghan admitted that while she loves drinking green juice, she "doesn't like the process of juicing" because it always felt "really messy." The irony is palpable, especially considering her Hurom slow juicer retails for a whopping £300. One can't help but wonder if this expensive gadget has been collecting dust in Meghan's kitchen.

Meghan's green juice obsession isn't new; she has been touting its benefits for years. In fact, it's become a staple of her wellness routine. But what's even more fascinating is that she uses this as an opportunity to connect with her family. When asked by Queer Eye's Tan France about her approach to cooking breakfast, Meghan revealed that "The ritual of breakfast is a sacred time as a family. You just take a minute of calm before the day."

Back in 2015, a few years before she married Prince Harry, Meghan revealed that she would prefer to drink this healthy juice than a cup of coffee while she was filming Suits

And it seems like Meghan's kitchen has become a hub for her family bonding sessions. She confessed that she cooks hot breakfast most days and even feeds her children frozen chicken nuggets and tater tots on busy mornings – an unexpected glimpse into her relatable parenting side.

But not everyone is buying what Meghan is selling. Critics have panned part two of With Love, Meghan, calling it "staged, fake, and dull" (according to Liz Jones' review in thescholarlynote.com). However, Meghan has won over some fans with her "genuinely earnest" approach.

As for whether we can expect to see a green juice line from Meghan's As Ever brand in the future? Only time will tell. One thing is certain: Meghan Markle's love affair with green juice has been a long-standing one. But it seems like even she has been questioning her own habits – and that, perhaps, is the most telling revelation of all.

In the kitchen, while chopping cucumbers, lime, orange and celery, Meghan added: 'But then again, I haven't done it in 20 years'

A Peek into Meghan's Kitchen

Meghan's kitchen may be off-limits to cameras, but we do get a glimpse of what goes on behind closed doors. In an interview with Bloomberg's Emily Chang, Meghan revealed that she cooks hot breakfast for her family most days – and it's not as complicated as you might think.

"It's just slicing bread, dunking it in some eggs, and calling it a day," she said. But what about when she's short on time? Well, according to Meghan, frozen chicken nuggets and tater tots are the answer – an unexpected relatable moment from the Duchess.

Meghan lauded green juice as her favourite 'natural source of energy' and biographers Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand said that Meghan never skips the first meal of the day

Meghan's approach to mealtime is all about quality time with her family. "The ritual of breakfast is a sacred time as a family," she explained. "You just take a minute of calm before the day."

And what does this look like in real life? Meghan has shared glimpses into her morning routine, which includes hitting the gym at 4 am and sipping on green juice – or so we thought.

The Truth About Meghan's Green Juice Habit

In part two of With Love, Meghan, fans were left scratching their heads when Meghan revealed that she hasn't juiced in 20 years. The Duchess was filmed in her garden picking ingredients for a green juice, which she then prepared for chef Clare Smyth.

But here's the twist: Meghan admitted that while she loves drinking green juice, she "doesn't like the process of juicing" because it always felt "really messy." This is especially ironic considering her Hurom slow juicer retails for £300 – a gadget that has been collecting dust in her kitchen for years.

A Green Juice Obsession

Meghan's love affair with green juice began long before she met Prince Harry. Back in 2015, while filming Suits, she confessed that she would rather blend some apple, kale, spinach, lemon, and ginger in the morning than reach for a cup of coffee.

Fast-forward to present day, and Meghan is still touting the benefits of green juice – albeit with a caveat. When asked about her approach to wellness, Meghan revealed that "I think trying to go for coffee or things like that only end up hurting you in the end, so I like to get a really good natural source of energy like a great green juice."

But does this mean she actually drinks it regularly? The answer, it seems, is no. In part two of With Love, Meghan, Meghan's admission that she hasn't juiced in 20 years has left fans questioning her commitment to the trend.

Celebrity Fans and Green Juice Obsession

Meghan Markle isn't the only celebrity who has hopped on the green juice bandwagon. American actress Amber Heard, for example, was spotted sipping on a celery-based green juice in a viral 2021 Instagram video – captioned "You can take the gal out of LA but you can't take LA out of the girl."

It seems like Meghan's love affair with green juice has inspired others to give it a try. But what does this say about the Duchess's commitment to her wellness routine?
