Gwyneth Paltrow Addresses Perceived Rivalry With Meghan Markle After Viral Cooking Video

Paltrow reiterates her support for Markle's ventures, dismissing claims of competition as media-driven narratives.

Gwyneth Paltrow's recent Instagram cooking video, featuring a casual and makeup-free presentation, drew comparisons to Meghan Markle's polished Netflix series 'With Love, Meghan.'
Some fans interpreted Paltrow's choice of music and informal style as subtle criticism of Markle's curated approach, though others noted Paltrow has been posting similar content for years.
Paltrow has publicly denied any rivalry, emphasizing in a Vanity Fair interview her support for Markle and her belief in collaboration among women in the lifestyle space.
Critics argue that the rivalry narrative is largely manufactured by media and social media, reflecting broader tendencies to pit successful women against each other.
Despite mixed reviews for its first season, Markle's 'With Love, Meghan' has been renewed for a second season, continuing her efforts to establish a personal lifestyle brand.
