Meghan Markle asked to be called Meghan rather than Duchess during her guest judging debut on MasterChef Australia
Host Poh Ling Yeow introduced her as a surprise replacement for Andy Allen, who was on paternity leave
Meghan selected honey, macadamia nuts, citrus, edible flowers and celeriac for the contestants’ challenge, while recalling Australia’s importance to her and Prince Harry, who announced they were expecting Prince Archie there in 2018
She urged the chefs to cook with humour, heart and a sense of nostalgia.
