Meghan Markle was once praise over her habits by closest friends.

The Duchess of Sussex, who married Prince Harry back in 2018, always had a knack for cooking as revealed by her pals.

“Meg cooks for herself and Harry every single day,” one of her close friends told People back in 2019.

“We’ve all been to their cottage. It’s small and she’s made it cozy, but the perception of their lifestyle and the reality are two different things.”

“We had a couple of days together recently. Her husband was out of town on work. In the room she made up for me, there was a candle lit by the bed, slippers and a robe. We were the only two in the house. It was our time,” another one of her friends said.

“She made the most lovely meals. She made tea every day. It was raining and muddy outside, so the dogs got all dirty, and she’s wiping them off with towels. How much she loves her animals, how much she loves her friends, how much she loves feeding you, taking care of you — none of that has changed,” said the friend.
