The episode, which was filmed months ago when Meghan and Harry were in Australia, saw Meghan join the other judges for one episode only. Prince Harry<\/a> did not accompany his wife to the set, however, he did appear from afar. This is because the duke video-called his wife while she was taste-testing<\/a> the contestants\u2019 food.<\/p>\n

While Meghan appeared to smile at her husband on the screen and chat away to him, even declaring her love for him at the end of the call, two royal insiders think she was actually \u201ccross\u201d with him for disturbing her.<\/p>\n

Speaking about the moment on The Royals Uncensored podcast<\/a>, Katie Nicholl said: \u201cShe looked a bit peed off. She looked really quite cross that that moment had been interrupted by him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Former royal butler Grant Harrold agreed with Katie and also thought Meghan did not look pleased to see her husband calling.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cIt looked almost like he had stolen her show.\u201d<\/p>\n

The moment not only attracted the attention of royal insiders but also of members of the public.<\/p>\n

One person wrote on X: \u201cEveryone already knows Harry was brought into the segment because he\u2019s the reason Meghan is on MasterChef in the first place. They didn\u2019t need to manufacture a fake surprise. They could\u2019ve just let it be an authentic for once.\u201d<\/p>\n

Someone else said: \u201cThey could win an actual award for the most inauthentic cringeworthy appearances ever.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another person commented: \u201cSo staged, so cringe!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The episode, which was filmed months ago when Meghan and Harry were in Australia, saw Meghan join the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":838306,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[64,63,134,33664,410661,128603,128606,410662],"class_list":["post-838305","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-entertainment","tag-meghan-markle","tag-meghan-markle-masterchef-australia","tag-meghan-markle-prince-harry","tag-meghan-markle-royal-family","tag-meghan-markle-tv-set"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/838305","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=838305"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/838305\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/838306"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=838305"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=838305"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=838305"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
