Meghan Markle postponed the release of her forthcoming Netflix show, “With Love, Meghan,” in light of the Los Angeles wildfires.

On Sunday, the streaming platform announced they were moving the show’s premiere date from Jan. 15 to March 4 at the Duchess of Sussex’s request.

In a statement, she expressed gratitude to her partners at Netflix for their understanding and support in postponing the launch. This decision was made to prioritize assisting those affected by the devastating wildfires in California, her home state.

The upcoming series, filmed in Montecito, Calif., will feature Markle sharing insights on various topics such as cooking, gardening, and hosting. Fans are eagerly anticipating the release of this project, especially because it will showcase the idyllic surroundings of Montecito, where Meghan and Prince Harry currently reside.

In addition to a cameo from the Duke of Sussex, the former actress, 43, welcomed special guests, including Roy Choi, Mindy Kaling and Alice Waters.

Sources also told Page Six that the “Suits” alum will utilize several products from her American Riviera Orchard lifestyle brand in the show.

Markle soft-launched her company in March 2024 when she gifted jars of homemade jam to several A-list pals, including Kris Jenner and Chrissy Teigen.

The duchess, meanwhile, has been busy assisting those impacted by the Los Angeles wildfires this past week.

On Friday, she and Harry, 40, stepped out to lend a helping hand at the Pasadena Convention Center.

The couple thanked Los Angeles first responders for their service and greeted caterers providing food to the wildfire victims.

While there, they also passed out meals to residents who had been displaced.

Harry even went out of his way to get a donut for a bedridden man, Pasadena Mayor Victor Gordo told the Pasadena Star.

Despite the recent wildfires, the royal couple has not been directly impacted by the Palisades Fire in the Pacific Palisades or the Eaton Fire in northeast LA. Their home, located approximately 90 miles north of Los Angeles, has thankfully remained safe from these natural disasters.

Last week, People reported that the pair — who share two children — have opened their Montecito home to friends affected by the catastrophe.

Several celebrities, including Miles Teller and Paris Hilton, have lost their homes in the fire.
