Meghan Markle caused quite the stir on social media with her latest breakfast recipe, deemed “elevated” by the Duchess herself.
On Monday night, she shared a post on her brand’s official Instagram account, showcasing her favorite take on the classic breakfast sandwich.
This culinary creation features two savory crepes folded around fried eggs, adorned with baby tomatoes and fresh basil.
In her post, Markle encouraged followers to get creative, suggesting they could use her crepe mix along with any leftover vegetables lurking in their refrigerators.
She playfully referred to this meal as her “favorite breakfast ‘sandwich.’”
Alongside the delectable dish, a margarita glass caught the eye, filled with a light beverage seemingly meant for brunch.
“Crepe inspo with a savory twist!” Markle wrote in the caption, pairing her dish with a fried egg and a variety of fridge veggies for a fun breakfast twist.
In a video shared on her brand’s Instagram stories, the former actress demonstrated how to create this dish, layering shredded cheese, wilted spinach, and the fried egg before folding the crepe around it all.
For the finishing touch, she topped the creation with chopped tomatoes and basil.
However, what many might have found as a simple breakfast tutorial didn’t seem to land well with fans.
Instead of praise, royal watchers were quick to voice their opinions online, expressing skepticism over Markle’s so-called “elevated” breakfast concept.
One user on social media humorously commented, “What a load of crepe…” while another sarcastically noted this was more than just a meal; it was a bold step away from mundane routines.
Yet, the irony wasn’t lost as some pointed out the oddity of posting about wine at breakfast.
The response from readers of the Express was similarly unimpressed.
One commentator cynically remarked that costing £11 for crepe mix was laughable compared to the chaos of a typical morning routine.
Another critiqued Markle’s intentions, suggesting her desire to elevate her own image was behind this culinary venture rather than the meal itself.
Further complicating matters, Markle suffered a hiccup when a spelling error in her post drew even more ridicule.
She mistakenly spelled “sandwich” as “sandwhich,” leading many to speculate whether it was a typo or if she was attempting to add a whimsical flair to her captions.
This error did not escape the notice of eagle-eyed royal enthusiasts, who took to social media to mock her oversight.
“This doesn’t reflect well on her attention to detail,” one user opined in a Reddit thread, while another joked about her previous remarks on the difficulty of caption writing.
The misspelling seemed to overshadow the culinary message Markle was attempting to convey.
The incident has drawn attention to Markle’s ongoing struggles with public perception as she navigates the tricky waters of celebrity and royal life.
With her recent move into food and lifestyle branding, the Duchess seems to attract an unusual amount of scrutiny—making even a simple recipe the center of controversy.
As she continues to share snippets of her life post-royalty, Markle’s attempts to connect with her audience through food and lifestyle content raise questions about authenticity and relatability in the fast-paced digital age.
With social media being a double-edged sword, it’s clear that even a breakfast sandwich can stir up a whirlwind of opinions and laughter.
There’s always a chance for a comeback in the world of culinary adventures, and fans are curious to see if Markle will rise to the challenge or stay under the radar following this latest PR misstep.
Will her future endeavors in the culinary realm yield better results?
Only time will tell.
