Pamela Anderson Responds to Rumors of a Meghan Markle Feud
Pamela Anderson, who is currently riding high on her rumored relationship with Liam Neeson (we stan so hard!!) and Top Gun promotion, just proved that she's the ultimate girls girl by shutting down rumors of an alleged feud with Megan Markle, Duchess of Sussex. Earlier this year, the Duchess launched f her cooking and lifestyle show, With Love, Meghan, on Netflix, which some viewers claimed bore a strong resemblance to Pamela's own series, Pamela's Cooking with Love, which also features cooking and entertaining tips. Some online commentary in response included barbed remarks about Meghan 'copying' Pamela's idea, from format to name. The trailer for Pamela's show dropped back in October 2024, around three months ahead of the trailer for Meghan's, and her series came out the week before the Duchess of Sussex's aired (though it doesn't appear to have been picked up in the U.S.)—however, we all know that TV shows take a long time to prepare, shoot and edit, so the more realistic explanation (rather than copycat-ism) is that both women had similar ideas independently of one another and the timelines just slightly overlapped. Now, Pamela has come out to confirm that this is very much the case and that there's no ill feelings between her and Meghan. When appearing as a guest on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, Pamela was asked, 'On a scale from one to 10, how much of a rip-off did you feel like With Love, Meghan was of your show, Pamela's Cooking with Love? There were articles saying these two shows were very similar,' the host queried. In response? Pamela quickly stated, 'One – I didn't [...] I didn't really look, but I didn't invent cooking shows. She's just doing her thing.' Amen to that! There's space for everyone and no need to pit the two women against one another. The second series of With Love, Meghan is set to be released on Netflix later this year and as yet there's no confirmation that Pamela's Cooking with Love will be returning.

Pamela Anderson Reacts to Claims of Meghan Markle Copying Her Cooking Show: ‘She's Just Doing Her Thing'
Pamela Anderson has responded to claims that Meghan Markle copied her cooking show for her Netflix series. The Duchess' With Love, Meghan was heavily compared to Anderson's show, titled Pamela's Cooking With Love. Anderson's series was released on Prime Video just a week before Markle's show premiered on Netflix. During her appearance on Watch What Happens with Andy Cohen, the actress, who recently made headlines over her relationship with Liam Neeson, was asked about her comments on the comparison. While in a conversation, Andy Cohen went on to ask Anderson, 'On a scale from one to 10, how much of a rip-off did you feel like With Love, Meghan was of your show, Pamela's Cooking with Love? There were articles saying these two shows were very similar.' The Baywatch star went on to respond, 'One—I didn't.' Confused by the actress's answer, the talk show host went on to ask, 'One? On a scale from one to 10, you did not see any similarities?' Laughing, the movie star quipped, 'No, I didn't really look, but I didn't invent cooking shows. She's just doing her thing." As for Markle's cooking show, the 8-episode series faced extensive criticism from the reviewers, as well as the audience. However, despite the backlash, the show will be returning for Season 2. Ahead of the series going into production, it was reported that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle 's USD 100 million deal with Netflix will be coming to an end. According to a source close to the Duke and the Duchess, they revealed, 'There's no animosity from either side. Things have just run their course.'

Pamela Anderson speaks out over claims Meghan Markle 'copied' her cooking show
The Baywatch star has broken her silence over claims that Meghan Markle's lifestyle programme was a direct copy of her cooking show that was released just weeks before Baywatch star Pamela Anderson has spoken out over claims that Meghan Markle 'copied' her cooking show. The allegations emerged when t he Duchess ' Netflix programme With Love, Meghan, was released in March this year, just one week after Pamela's show, titled Pamela's Cooking with Love, aired on Amazon. The premiere of Meghan's lifestyle show was pushed back by two months after the wildfires in California. Now, while promoting her new film The Naked Gun, in which she stars alongside Liam Neeson, Pamela was quizzed over the comparisons of their lifestyle shows. Appearing on Andy Cohen's Watch What Happens Live programme, the show host addressed the viral accusations during a segment called Plead the Fifth. It comes after Meghan Markle's birthday 'gimmick' is quietly shelved after major mistake. Cohen asked Anderson: "On a scale from one to 10, how much of a rip-off did you feel like With Love, Meghan was of your show, Pamela's Cooking with Love?" Anderson, who appeared surprised by the question, replied: 'One – I didn't'. Pressing her on the topic, Cohen again asked: 'One? On a scale from one to 10, you did not see any similarities?' Pamela answered with a laugh: 'No, I didn't really look, but I didn't invent cooking shows. She's just doing her thing." Fans of Anderson's programme were quick to point out the similarities between the two shows when they first aired, noting that Anderson and Meghan both filmed themselves in brightly lit country kitchens, smiling and laughing with guests, while cooking aspirational meals alongside photogenic friends and celebrities. In addition, both women were filmed carrying wicker baskets filled with fruit and vegetables from their gardens, dancing joyfully, and high-fiving their guests. Each series also ran for eight episodes. Anderson is not the only celebrity who Meghan's new lifestyle brand has been compared to, as online commentators have also likened Meghan's brand As Ever to similar projects by Gwyneth Paltrow and Martha Stewart. While Paltrow and Anderson have both been quick to shut down rumours of any beef between them and the Duchess of Sussex, Martha Stewart seemed to be a little more hesitant in her comments about Meghan. During an interview with Yahoo Lifestyle, Martha said of the Duchess: 'Meghan I don't really know very well, and I hope she knows what she's talking about.' 'Authenticity, to me, is everything, and to be authentic and knowledgeable about your subject matter is extremely important.' Although a second season of With Love, Meghan is due to air later this year, recent reports have claimed that Meghan and Harry 's lucrative deal with Netflix will not be renewed when it expires in September. With Love, Meghan failed to break into Netflix's top 300 shows for the first half of 2025, and was outperformed by multiple seasons of the legal drama Suits, in which she starred before she met Prince Harry.
