Meghan Markle has postponed the release of her new series, titled ‘With Love, Meghan’, in the wake of the California wildfires.
The eight episode series was due to hit screens on January 15 but has now been pushed back to March 4.
“I’m thankful to my partners at Netflix for supporting me in delaying the launch, as we focus on the needs of those impacted by the wildfires in my home state of California,” the Duchess of Sussex said in a statement.
It comes after 16 people were killed, dozens injured and thousands evacuated from their homes due to deadly wildfires raging through Los Angeles.
Over the weekend, Meghan and Prince Harry, who live to the north west of LA, were seen visiting people made homeless by the fires in an emergency shelter in Pasadena.
In her programme, Meghan is seen cooking, at a beehive and enjoying time with friends in Montecito, California, as she says she is going to share some “tips and tricks” on baking, gardening and more.

In each episode, Netflix said Meghan invites both new and old friends to join her “in the kitchen, garden, and beyond.”
“Whether Meghan is sharing personal tips and tricks, or taking the opportunity to learn something new, it’s a time for connection,” Netflix said.
Chef Roy Choi, actress and comedian Mindy Kaling, restaurateur and activist Alice Waters are some of the guests who join Meghan on the show.
Prince Harry also briefly features in the trailer.
“For Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, love is in the details: the small, personal moments that bring delight to those we cherish,” Netflix said.
