Meghan Markle is set to return to ‘MasterChef Australia’ in 2027, this time as a co-host of ‘Junior MasterChef Australia,’ the children’s version of the popular cooking show.
In July of this year, the Duchess of Sussex made her debut appearance on the adult version, ‘MasterChef Australia,’ which was filmed during her and Prince Harry’s visit to Australia in April 2026.
"I had an incredible time with the whole team at MasterChef this past April, so when they approached me to come back and work with this young group of talent, it was an easy yes," Markle shared in a statement.
The contestants taking part in the show will be aged between nine and 13. The date for the production has not yet been set, but it has been confirmed that it will take place at Melbourne Showgrounds.
Indeed, Meghan Markle was a breath of fresh air among British royals, but then she, Harry, and Archie took off for North America after officially stepping down from their royal duties. Her time as a senior royal was marked by a modern approach to royal life. She challenged conventions surrounding everything from fashion and public appearances to family roles and official duties, making her one of the most closely watched—and debated—figures associated with the modern monarchy.
