Gwyneth Paltrow And Meghan Markle Epically Shut Down Rumors That They're Feuding

The newest Hollywood feud is the one in which actor Gwyneth Paltrow and Meghan Markle are at each other's throats after Paltrow mocked Markle's new Netflix show.

The only problem—it apparently never happened.

Rumors swirled recently that Paltrow has been dragging With Love, Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex's lifestyle show.

Which was weird in the first place—Paltrow had just spoken positively about Markle's foray into lifestyle content days before the rumors began.

Paltrow also said that she didn't even know Markle anyway. She told Vanity Fair:

“I mean, I’ve met Meghan, who seems really lovely, but I don’t know her at all — maybe I’ll try to get through their security detail and bring them a pie.”

Well that all seems to have changed—the two appeared in a social media video together to address the rumors, with a little help from that aforementioned pie.

The video was in response to a social media user's question to Paltrow about the supposed beef, to which Paltrow responded:

"I genuinely do not understand this at all, whatsoever. Do you understand this?"

At which point she panned her phone over to reveal Markle beside her at the table, eating a piece of pie.

It perfectly underlined the silliness of the rumors, which all seem to have started because Paltrow posted a video of herself making breakfast, which people online for some reason interpreted as mockery of Markle, despite Paltrow having made such videos for years.

And not only had she been complimentary of Markle in that Vanity Fair article, she had also spoken pointedly about the way the media and people online love to pit women against each other.

Paltrow said:

"[When] there’s noise about certain women in the culture, I do have, always, a strong instinct to stand up for them.”

She also said she was excited to be joined by Markle in the lifestyle space, not threatened by her.

“I was raised to see other women as friends, not foes. I think there’s always more than enough to go around. Everybody deserves an attempt at everything that they want to try.”

Paltrow and Markle's video has of course gone very viral, and fans are loving it.

There's not much certain in our world anymore, but one thing you can count on is people's insatiable hunger for dragging Meghan Markle, now matter how much of a stretch it may be.
