Watch: Paltrow tries to end rumours of feud with Meghan
The pair were seen in Paltrow's kitchen at her home in Montecito, California, where the Oscar-winning actress was apparently alone, conducting a question and answer session with fans on Instagram.
When one fan asked about rumours of a ' Meghan Markle beef', Paltrow replied: 'I genuinely do not understand this at all, whatsoever.'
She then turned the camera to show that the Duchess was also at the table and asked her: 'Do you understand this?'
The Duchess shrugged her shoulders, took a bite of food and giggled.
The video was also shared on the Duchess's Instagram page.
Tensions between the two were first reported when Paltrow said she did not feel threatened by Meghan's attempt to become a lifestyle guru.
The Shakespeare in Love actress has her own wellness brand, Goop, but told Vanity Fair she was happy to 'pave the way' for others to follow.
Last week, she appeared to mock With Love Meghan, the Duchess's Netflix series, which was panned by critics despite being renewed for a second season.
Paltrow shared a clip on Instagram on Saturday of herself cooking scones, bacon and eggs, without make-up and dressed in pyjamas. The Duchess's cooking series involved designer clothing and an expensive kitchen inside a hired $8 million (£6.2 million) farmhouse.
As if to underline the comparison, Paltrow used the soundtrack of This Will Be (An Everlasting Love) by Natalie Cole, which had also been used in promos for the Duchess's Netflix project.
However, some fans speculated online that the 'feud' might be a clever marketing ploy.
Paltrow previously told Vanity Fair that 'everybody deserves an attempt at everything that they want to try' and said she did not know Meghan well, but she 'seems really lovely'.
Meghan has since launched her As Ever brand, which sells products including jam, pancake mix, and the dried flower sprinkles she adds to everything from shortbread biscuits to fried eggs on toast.
She is also releasing Confessions Of A Female Founder, a new podcast, in which she is promising 'girl talk' and advice on how to create 'billion-dollar businesses'.
It comes after it was revealed Meghan believes her new business ventures will make her 'a billionaire'.

Aaron Chalmers' son may need wheelchair as ex cries over heartbreaking health condition
Geordie Shore star Aaron Chalmers' ex, Talia Oatway, has given a heartbreaking health update on their son, Oakley, three, who was born with Apert Syndrome Aaron Chalmers' ex, Talia Oatway, has revealed their little boy, Oakley, may need a wheelchair in heartbreaking news. Little Oakley, three, was born with Apert Syndrome, a genetic disorder, which causes the skull, hands and foot bones to fuse together. Sharing recent photos of her son, Talia, who split up from her Geordie Shore star ex shortly after Oakley was born, admitted she 'cries a lot' as she gave an emotional update on the tot's progress. It comes after singer, Jessie J, updated fans on her health after being rushed to hospital with an infection and fluid on her lungs, weeks after breast cancer surgery. Responding to a follower on Instagram, who told Talia how amazing it was to see Oakley taking his first steps in a video his proud mum had shared online, the model said he may end up depending on a wheelchair, explaining: "Ah thank you, he will only walk outside for a very very short time (like a few minutes) at home he walks more. "The bones on the bottom of his feet are becoming more prominent, which is where I need to keep an eye on. "A lot of Apert children require feet surgery and depend on wheelchairs at times. This is due to the bones on the bottom of their feet causing pain up to their backs." Later on in the Q&A, Talia was told how "amazing", but she replied: "Thank you, I honestly don't think I'm strong. I am very emotional at times. I cry a lot especially in situations where I can't get my point across or when I'm overwhelmed. "I have tried to hold my emotions in as much as I can especially when the kids are around." Aaron and Talia welcomed Oakley into the world in February 2022. The former couple also share Romeo, four, and Maddox, three. They got together in 2017 but split just months after Oakley's birth. Aaron, who found fame on MTV's Geordie Shore, made his debut with the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship in April. Speaking to the Mirror about how he struggled to cope after Oakley was born, he said: "Everything was going in the right direction, and then after my last fight in the November - a few days later my cousin died, who was literally my best mate, my brother. He passed away and I just went on a slippery slope. I started drinking f***ing really, really badly. Drinking badly. "And then leading into 2024, my son… As I was trying to get myself back on the straight and narrow, my son went into hospital. It was meant to be a routine head surgery, and he was in a coma and he was in Liverpool fighting for his life for eight weeks, and I just didn't deal with it."

Coronation Street icon dyes hair ahead of making major comeback this week
Catherine Tyldesley is set to reprise her role as blonde bombshell Eva Price on Coronation Street, and has gone back to her character's signature colour in time for filming Catherine Tyldesley has dyed her hair in time for her return to Coronation Street. The actress, 41, is set to be make a major comeback onto the ITV soap as she returns to her signature role of Eva Price, seven years on from her initial exit. During her initial stint on the cobbles, Eva sported platinum blonde locks but after she quit the soap, Catherine quickly went back to her natural brunette colour as she competed on Strictly Come Dancing. She kept the darker look as she took on roles in shows such as Scarborough and Viewpoint but an Instagram post on Tuesday revealed that she is a blonde once again. The actress shared two snaps of herself posing with friends as she headed out for dinner, in Manchester and The Sun reports that the outing comes just days before she is supposed to making a return to the set at MediaCityUK to begin filming. Catherine, who was a brunette when she took on her first big role in the BBC drama Lilies prior to joining Coronation Street, previously explained that bosses just felt that it was right that barmaid Eva would have blonde hair. It comes after reports of all the celebrities rumoured to be joining BBC Strictly Come Dancing 2025. In 2019, she explained during an interview on Lorraine: "When I first started Corrie I'd done a sketch show and was blonde. They felt Eva was blonde and so did I. I keep walking past windows and mirror and think 'Oh!' and forget I've done it. A lady came up to me and said I think you should be blonde." Reports surrounding the return of Leanne Battersby's sister emerged earlier this year, but then nothing was announced. Fresh reports just last week claimed the planned plot was now approaching. It's thought that the move has come about after EastEnders bosses revealed that Kat Slater (Jessie Wallace) and Alfie Moon (Shane Richie) will be taking the reins of the Queen Victoria pub. Aaron McCusker, who starred as Freddie Mercury's boyfriend in the film Bohemian Rhapsody, is reportedly set to arrive alongside her as her new husband. A source told The Sun: "Corrie bosses were never going to take EastEnders shrewd decision to reinstate Kat and Alfie at the Vic lying down. So they took their time looking for the perfect actor to play her husband to Eva as she makes her return to Corrie as the new boss of the Rovers." The insider added that Corrie bosses knew they had found the 'perfect' actor as soon as the Irish-born star walked into the room. They added of his character: "Aaron's character is also someone not to be messed with, and the locals are going to be in for a shock if they think they can take advantage of his good nature and that cheeky Irish charm. "It's the start of an exciting new chapter in the pub's history." Aaron is also known for his role as Jamie Maguire in Shameless, whilst Catherine has starred in The Good Ship Murder and earlier this year appeared opposite Siobhan Finneran in an episode of the ITV drama Protection. She was also set to star in a cancelled touring production of Bonnie and Clyde: The Musical last year and went viral over a social media scandal known as Cakegate in late 2023. The actress first appeared on Coronation Street in 2011 as the daughter of Stella Price (Michelle Collins), who had arrived to take over the pub herself and also reveal herself as the long-lost mother of Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson). Over the course of seven years, Catherine saw her alter-ego through numerous relationships with the likes of Jason Grimshaw (Ryan Thomas), Rob Donovan (Marc Baylis) and Nick Tilsey (Ben Price). Her most notable relationship was with Aidan Connor (Shayne Ward), but that started to go awry when he began an affair with Maria Connor (Samia Longchambon). Instead of confronting Aidan head-on about his infidelity, she took revenge by putting a bright pink Range Rover on his credit card and then decided to fake a pregnancy. Maria discovered Eva's lies and exposed them all at the wedding but Eva later discovered that she was in fact pregnant with Aidan's baby. In order to go through with the birth in secret, she went off to a remote cottage and had planned to give baby Susie away to Toyah Battersby (Georgia Taylor). However, Aidan later took his own life and Eva began to grow close to her daughter, eventually opting to leave in the back of a taxi with her for good. If Eva does return and take over the Rovers, she will be following in the footsteps of former characters such as Annie Walker (Doris Speed), Bet Lynch (Julie Goodyear) and Liz McDonald (Beverley Callard), all of whom have helmed the nation's most famous pub over the course of the show's history. One such landlady is Jenny Connor, who is confirmed to be leaving the ITV soap.

Netflix's show The Loch boasts a stellar cast including Happy Valley star Siobhan Finneran and Scottish actress Laura Fraser as they get to work catching a killer in the Highlands Netflix latest hit show The Loch has been a huge hit since it was added to the streaming site. The Scottish-based crime thriller is currently sitting at number two on the top watched section of the streaming site. The search for a serial killer operating in the Highlands becomes a matter of life and death for detective Annie Redford, who is trying to cope with her first murder case. The show stars Laura Fraser, Jim McMeekin and Happy Valley star Siobhan Finneran. Looking for something similar to binge? A similarly short watch which scratches that itch of haunted stares across misty lakes, and secrets buried in the soil? Good job we have a few that might be your next binge. Below is another four detective dramas with the same vibe as the Netflix hit, each worthy of a shoutout on their own. Let's take a look... Top of the Lake Jane Campion's Top of the Lake is not the average murder mystery, it's more of a slow burner but definitely worth a watch on BBC. Elisabeth Moss stars in the role of Robin Griffin, the detective investigating the disappearance of a pregnant 12-year-old in a lakeside New Zealand town, who quickly becomes obsessed with the idea of cracking the case. Broadchurch Broadchurch didn't just redefine the detective drama, it reinvigorated the entire genre in Blighty. A small seaside town in Dorset is rocked, where a child's murder on the beachfront will begin the slow unravelling of local secrets. David Tennant stars as DI Hardy, while Olivia Colman stars as DS Miller. The Dorset cliffs loom, and so do the lies. The Tourist BBC drama The Tourist has been a huge hit with TV fans bringing us all the edge-of-the-seat action needed for a good crime thriller. With two seasons under its belt, viewers are hoping a third comes soon. Series one of The Tourist is a six-part thriller drama which aired on BBC One in 2022. It follows a Northern Irish man, played by actor Jamie Dornan, suffering from amnesia following a car accident in the Australian outback. An epic cat-and-mouse chase unfolds, and Jamie's character later wakes in hospital, hurt, but somehow alive. Except he has no idea who he is. Full of shocking, surprising, funny and brutal turns, The Tourist is set in a world populated by quirky, enigmatic characters and off-beat comedy punctuates high-stakes action. Marcella Messy detectives, mental spirals, and unapologetic plot twists. Anna Friel is described magnetic as Marcella Backland, a detective grappling with blackouts, trauma, and increasingly unhinged murder cases. Set in London and from the creators of The Bridge, Marcella leans into psychological mystery. It's part thriller, part fever dream, and all over the place in an enjoyably chaotic way which is sure to have viewers hooked and looking to watch more.
