Pamela Anderson<\/strong> is an actor, yes. But in her spare time, the 58-year-old loves to cook. After publishing a cookbook called I Love You: Recipes From the Heart,<\/em> she unveiled a cooking show called Pamela<\/em>\u2019s Cooking With Love<\/em> last February. The series, available on Prime Video, invites chefs to join Anderson at her property on Vancouver Island to prepare delicious plant-based dishes together.<\/p>\n One week after that series launched, Meghan Markle<\/strong> debuted With Love, Meghan<\/em><\/a>\u2014an eight-episode culinary series on Netflix. In this program, the duchess invites her closest friends to her California estate, where she shares her secrets for cooking, gardening, and entertaining. Internet users were quick to accuse the wife of Prince Harry<\/strong> of plagiarism, noting a number of similarities between her show and Anderson\u2019s. The titles both feature the phrase \u201cWith Love,\u201d and both shows share the premise of inviting guests to a magnificent home.<\/p>\n On a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live,<\/em> Anderson finally had her say on the affair. Does she believe Markle copied her? \u201cOn a scale from 1 to 10, how much of a rip-off did you feel like With Love, Meghan<\/em> was of your show, Pamela<\/em>\u2019s Cooking With Love<\/em>?\u201d host Andy Cohen<\/strong> asked. \u201cThere were articles saying that these two shows are very similar.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cOne,\u201d Anderson replied, looking surprised\u2014before following up at the host\u2019s insistence. \u201cI didn\u2019t really look, but yeah, I didn\u2019t invent cooking shows.\u2026 She\u2019s just doing her thing,\u201d the actor concluded.<\/p>\n The shows launching within a week of each means it would have been pretty difficult for one to plagiarize the other. In any case, despite the chatter and an allegedly cancelled Netflix contract<\/a>, the duchess\u2019s show has been renewed for a second season, scheduled for autumn 2025. As for Anderson, she seems to be temporarily leaving the kitchen to focus on her return to cinema and her new romance<\/a> with Liam Neeson<\/strong>\u2014her screen partner in The Naked Gun<\/em>, which is out now.<\/p>\n Original story in<\/em> VF France<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
