With more episodes, comes more love.
Just ask Michael Steed, director of Meghan Markle’s new Netflix series “With Love, Meghan” who appeared on camera throughout the eight-episode season.
“It was unexpected, but I embraced it…it was a lot of fun,” the creative told People. “I was always going to be the point of conversation, so she had someone to talk to at all times and make it more conversational and comfortable. But it certainly evolved to where the cameras turned towards me.”
Steed added about Markle’s skills in the kitchen: “Her cooking is pretty spot-on. She’s not a chef, and it’s definitely not meant to make it seem like she is, but there’s just a love of cooking that is palpable.”
And the director made it clear the team wasn’t trying to create a false sense of perfection with the series.
“For me, imperfection is a wonderful thing. It was fun watching her trying to get used to the kitchen, because it’s not her place, so we didn’t hide that fact, and she’s kind of walking and looking for things. I really wanted to embrace and celebrate all of the mistakes and mess and all that good stuff.”
Taking a moment to describe the Duchess of Sussex, 43, on set, Steed labeled her “friendly” and approachable, creating a “comfortable environment” for everyone involved.
“Meghan as a person is totally L.A., California, through and through,” he quipped.
Part of that led her to bond with the production staff immediately. As Steed put it: “Her relationship with the crew became really tight fairly quickly. She has an understanding of what it means to be on set and she connected with the crew more than anyone.”
He also described the atmosphere as “chill” and “fun.” “Everyone was a pro all the way through. She’s a pro,” he gushed.
Markle would also play music in between shoots but as the director, Steed has to keep production on track.
“I was always the one who had to turn the music off — that as my role to keep everything on track. She’d call me the ‘Brooklyn Bummer,’” he teased.
“Everyone has their own version of her, but she’s just someone who’s constantly hustling and working,” explained Steed. “I really wanted to create an environment where she could relax, especially given the pressures she faces daily. I’m glad we could create moments where she could tap into a different side of herself.”
Fans will be able to see more moments like these as “With Love, Meghan” has been renewed for season two.
Markle announced the news on her Instagram on Friday.
“Oh, how I love ASMR!,” the actress captioned a video montage of clips from the show. “If you’re loving Season 1, just wait until you see the fun we cooked up on Season 2!”
Markle added, “Thanks for joining the party, and an endless thanks to the amazing team and crew who helped bring it all to life! @netflix.”
