Meghan Markle will bring a holiday special to Netflix this December with With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration, a new episode of her lifestyle series set to film in Montecito.
Archewell Productions announced an extended creative partnership with Netflix through a multi‑year, first‑look deal for film and television, and confirmed the holiday special will join the streamer’s lineup this December. The episode is described as a warm, family‑focused celebration in which friends and family “deck the halls, create holiday feasts, craft heartfelt gifts, and share lots of laughs” with simple how‑tos viewers can follow at home.
With Love, Meghan was Markle’s first solo hosting project for Netflix; season one premiered this past March. Producers have indicated a second season will arrive this fall, and the recent announcement also states season two will debut later this month. The upcoming season will welcome celebrity chefs, artists and friends for hands‑on segments—from playful cooking challenges to DIY projects—focusing on playfulness over perfection and finding joy in creating together. The As Ever brand, which coordinates with the series, will be expanded under the new deal.
Other projects named in the announcement include Masaka Kids, A Rhythm Within, slated to premiere later this year, and a planned adaptation of the novel Meet Me at the Lake. The new agreement follows earlier reports that the couple’s multi‑year deal with the streamer might not be renewed, but the production update confirms that work will continue under the extended partnership.
Why it matters
– An extended first‑look deal signals continued confidence from the streamer in the couple’s content slate and the As Ever brand.
– The holiday special’s approachable, hands‑on format is designed to be accessible to viewers and to play well in December’s streaming calendar.

Quote from Meghan included in the announcement: “We’re proud to extend our partnership with Netflix and expand our work together to include the As ever brand. My husband and I feel inspired by our partners who work closely with us and our Archewell Productions team to create thoughtful content across genres that resonates globally, and celebrates our shared vision.”
