Meghan Markle to Guest-Judge MasterChef Australia on July 26

The broadcast underscores her move into commercial media after stepping back from senior royal duties.

Overview

  • Channel 10 confirmed the episode will air Sunday, July 26 at 7pm, with promotional images showing Meghan on the MasterChef Australia judging panel.
  • The segment was filmed in April at Melbourne Showgrounds and features judges Poh Ling Yeow, Jean‑Christophe Novelli and Sofia Levin joining Meghan for a timed challenge.
  • Meghan will ask contestants to create a dish “fit for a Duchess” using seasonal produce such as Brussels sprouts, celeriac and macadamia nuts while sharing the personal story behind each plate.
  • The announcement follows Meghan’s recent private meeting with King Charles and Queen Camilla, after which Buckingham Palace issued a short statement declining to release further details or photos.
  • The episode forms part of Meghan’s post‑royal media and commercial work, including her Netflix cooking series and As Ever brand ambitions, and it has prompted mixed public reaction and unconfirmed reports about on‑set tensions.
