Meghan Markle’s new Netflix series With Love, Meghan has sparked a wave of criticism after a scene showing a lobster being prepared for a meal left viewers outraged.
The controversial moment comes in the second season of the Duchess of Sussex’s lifestyle program, where she is joined in the kitchen by celebrity chef and restaurateur José Andrés. Together, the pair prepare a seafood feast as a treat for the film crew. But the process of hacking into a spiny lobster drew fierce reactions from some onlookers, who deemed the segment “cruel” and “disturbing.”
In the 51-second clip, shared widely on X and Instagram, José can be seen chopping into the lobster while Meghan looks on. Clearly unsettled, she nervously scratches her forehead, covers her face, and winces as the sound of the shell cracking is heard off-camera. At one point, she repeats incredulously how José had referred to the lobster as “baby,” appearing both shocked and uneasy. Meghan admitted she wasn’t entirely comfortable with the process, but acknowledged that eating lobster is “part of the circle of life.” She also revealed that Prince Harry isn’t a fan of the crustacean.
