Meghan Markle and Gwyneth Paltrow shut down feud rumors with cheeky video, Internet says 'well played'

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Meghan Markle and Gwyneth Paltrow hit back at rumors of a feud brewing between them with a quirky video that the latter uploaded on social media on Tuesday, March 25, reported Page Six.

According to the publication, critics attempted to pit the two celebrities against each other after Paltrow shared a video of herself making breakfast in her pajamas over the weekend.

In that clip, the 52-year-old 'Iron Man' star is seen sipping her coffee before baking biscuits, doing a high kick, and petting her dog. She proceeds to cook eggs before concluding the video with a plate filled with eggs, bacon, biscuits, and jam.

"My cleaner take on a classic breakfast: gluten-free buttermilk biscuits, not-so-perfectly cooked over-easy eggs, and crispy bacon #boyfriendbreakfast," read its caption.

Gwyneth Paltrow and Meghan Markle team up to dismiss feud rumors

Fans of Gwyneth Paltrow assumed that she was taking a dig at the 43-year-old Duchess of Sussex's new Netflix series, 'With Love, Meghan', with her video.

The speculation was fuelled by the Goop founder's chosen background track for the video, 'This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)' by Natalie Cole, which has been used in some clips for Meghan's show.

"Gwyneth Paltrow making breakfast in her pyjamas and in her real kitchen all while playing the promo song for Meghan Markle’s show is (sniggering emojis)," a person wrote on X (formerly Twitter), sharing the reel.

The "real kitchen" jibe was aimed at Meghan for filming her show in a rental home instead of her $14 million mansion in Montecito, California.

On Tuesday, March 25, a person asked Paltrow if she was "comprehending the Meghan Markle beef" that social media says they have, to which she responded in an Instagram Story, "I genuinely do not understand this at all whatsoever.”

Panning the camera, she showed Meghan sitting beside her, busy eating a pie.

"Do you understand this?" asked Paltrow, to which Markle simply mumbled and shrugged before gleefully taking another bite of her food.
