Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, used Instagram on Wednesday to celebrate her first Daytime Emmy nomination for the Netflix series "With Love, Meghan" [1].
The nomination marks a significant professional milestone for the Duchess as she navigates her transition into media production and lifestyle content. While the recognition comes after the series ended, it validates the production quality of the project on a national stage.
The series received a nomination for the 2026 Daytime Emmy Awards in the category of Outstanding Lifestyle Series [2]. Some reports refer to the category as Outstanding Lifestyle Program [3]. The show ran for two seasons [4] before being canceled months prior to the announcement.
In her Instagram post, Markle expressed gratitude toward the production staff. "A huge congratulations to the amazing crew, producers, and team who worked on ‘With Love, Meghan’ on @netflix," she said [1].
Markle also shared her excitement regarding the achievement. "We are nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Lifestyle Series," she said [5].
The nomination serves as a high-profile acknowledgment of the show's impact, despite its cancellation. The U.S. Daytime Emmy Awards recognize excellence in daytime programming, and this is the first time a project led by the Duchess has been nominated in this specific category [2].
“"We are nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Lifestyle Series."”
This nomination demonstrates the enduring visibility of the Duchess of Sussex in the American entertainment industry. By securing a nod from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences for a cancelled series, Markle maintains a level of professional prestige and industry validation that persists regardless of the commercial longevity of her specific Netflix projects.
