Meghan Markle has shared behind-the-scenes footage from the photoshoot for her podcast while praising the latest episode ‘as sucha good one’.
The Duchess of Sussex, 43, reminded her followers to tune into Confessions of a Female Founder’s latest episode the founder of an eco-friendly hair care and beauty brand for women – in a video posted on Instagram on Friday,
‘So I’m not sure if you’ve caught up on this week’s episode of Confessions of a Female Founder, but it’s such a good one – and it reminds me of that quote “Wherever you go, there you are,” she began, as Meghan appeared sans makeup in the short clip.
‘That is what my conversation with Cassie is like because 20-plus years later, so much has changed and yet we are much the same,’ she continued, referring to her interview with Cassandra.
Meghan kept her face largely makeup-free, with the mother-of-two appearing to be wearing little more than a swipe of soft pink lipstick and matching blush.
The video included a closer look at Meghan’s wedding rings – after fans noticed the unconventional way in which she chose to wear them.
However, it appeared Meghan had since reordered the rings so they were stacked in a more conventinal arrangement, starting with the wedding band, followed by her eternity ring, and finally her diamond engagement ring from Prince Harry.
Meghan then shared a behind-the-scenes reel from the photoshoot for her podcast, which shows the Duchess striking a series of candid poses for the cover picture of Confessions of a Female Founder.

Meghan’s Instagram Story comes three days after the episode was released, as she discussed motherhood with Kitsch-founder Cassandra.
At one point in the episode, Meghan revealed having children was ‘not the way I envisioned it’, adding that it is ‘so important that my kids see me as a working mom’.
She added that she had a vision that she was ‘going to give a speech with a baby on my hip’ before she became a mother to Prince Archie in May 2019.
The reality, Meghan continued, was different as she had ‘a lot of external things happening’.
The Duchess – who gave birth to her second child Princess Lilibet in June 2021 – also spoke during the new episode about how she ‘likes to show up for people’.
She said: ‘For myself, especially when they are baby babies… before I was a mom – I’ve always wanted to be a mom – before I was a mom I was like, ‘oh gosh, I’m going to give a speech with a baby on my hip’. I had a whole vision. I was like, I’m just gonna…
‘And then you fast forward, granted I had a lot of external things happening by the time I had both pregnancies and both babies, but it was not the way I envisioned it.’
She later added: ‘For me it’s so important that my kids see me as a working mom.’

It comes after Meghan and Prince Harry celebrated their seventh wedding anniversary as the Duchess shared previously-unseen photographs of their family and ‘love story‘.
One image on the pinboard features her pregnancy bump, while another shows the couple’s son, Prince Archie, kissing his sister, Princess Lilibet.
Other scenes show the family on various holidays, painting in the garden of their €13million Montecito mansion – and even Archie in the womb.
Meghan’s post was accompanied by the Proclaimers tune I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles) and the caption: ‘Seven years of marriage. A lifetime of stories.
‘Thanks to all of you (whether by our side, or from afar) who have loved and supported us throughout our love story – we appreciate you. Happy anniversary!’
Meghan often used to make montages when she was working as an actress and running a lifestyle blog.
Her latest one charts the couple’s relationship from when they met on a blind date in London in 2016 – where they took a candid selfie – their second date on a trip to Botswana spotting elephants, and a trip the following year to see the Northern Lights in Norway.
It then moves to the couple’s engagement and wedding – including, controversially, given the couple’s acrimonious departure from the royal family, a drawing of Meghan’s coat of arms.

Several private family images include a sonogram of Archie in the womb, and Harry gazing down at him after his birth in May 2019.
Others show them on the beach at Norfolk with their dogs, smiling over a birthday cake, and on trips as working royals including in Morocco.
The action then moves to their present-day life in California.
Several notes are written on the board in Meghan’s distinctive cursive script, including the lyrics to Ben E King’s Stand By Me, which was played at their wedding.
Another pinned note says ‘love wins’ – a phrase the pair have often used about their relationship to signify their battles against their perceived enemies.
