“I make hot breakfast most mornings for the kids and my husband”: Meghan Markle gets candid about family life with Archie and Lilibet

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, recently revealed in the August 26, 2025, episode of her cooking series With Love, Megan, how she ensured her husband and kids were catered to on most mornings.

As the Suits actress prepared French Toast on the episode with Tan France of Queer Eye, she spoke about making breakfast for family:

"I make hot breakfast most mornings for the kids and my husband. But it’s not as complicated as people think it is. This is so easy to make," Meghan, 44, said. "It feels like a big undertaking, but you’re just slicing bread, dunking it in eggs, and calling it a day.”

Her guest responded that breakfast wasn't only about making cereal. "You’re at the griddle. They’re not just eating cereal," France responded.

Meghan Markle explained some of the special details that made her children look forward to breakfast rituals:

“Yes, fried eggs and pancakes. But I like to do surprise pancakes for the kids, so I always put some ground flax seeds and pour some chia seeds. And Lili will ask me, ‘Can I have chia seeds? I want it to have freckles.’ ”

"The ritual of breakfast it’s a sacred time as a family,” Meghan Markle explains

The Duchess of Sussex explained the importance of planning good breakfasts and asking the kids for suggestions on their cravings:

"The ritual of breakfast, it’s a sacred time as a family. You pace it. You can talk about what they’re excited about for the day. So just take a minute of calm before the day, wherever the day is going to end up taking you."

The former actress shared that she took the presentation of her food seriously, adding that she always received praise from her children:

“One thing I do with my kids — and I will say that it takes a bit more time — I like the presentation for them. Archie will say, ‘Oh, mama, that looks beautiful’"
