Prue Leith has made it clear she won't be tuning in to Meghan Markle's new television show.
The Great British Bake Off judge, 85, dismissed the Duchess of Sussex's upcoming lifestyle programme "With Love, Meghan" during an appearance on Good Morning Britain.
"I've only read about it [the show], but I honestly wouldn't watch it," Leith told presenters.
When asked to explain her lack of interest, the veteran cook was frank about her distaste for the show's apparent content, saying she wasn't keen on "touchy-feely mindfulness".

âWell, I'm not a Meghan Markle fan,â she explained.
âI don't know [why], all that sort of touchy-feely mindfulness, endless worrying about what creams you put on your hands.
âI just think there's more to life than how you look and how your friends think of you.â
She added that she thinks she might have âalienated half my fansâ due to her comments.
Markle announced on Thursday that she was returning to podcasting with new series Confessions of a Female Founder.
The wife of Prince Harry added that the first episode will become available on April 8.
Markle signed a deal with Lemonada Media in February 2024 after her Spotify contract ended in 2023 after one series of her first podcast Archetypes.
The eight-part series, which sees the former Suits actress give hosting tips and cooking with her celebrity friends, has been savaged by critics - but some fans loved it.
The Guardian described it as a âgormless lifestyle fillerâ and âso pointless it might be the Sussexesâ last TV showâ, while The Telegraph gave it two stars and branded it âinsaneâ and an âexercise in narcissismâ.
Regardless of reviews, the streaming giant has already renewed it for a second series.
Markle also recently relaunched her lifestyle brand As Ever less than a year after launching American Riviera Orchard.
The name change follows a rejected trademark application for American Riviera Orchard last March, which gave her three months to revise it.
The original filing covered cookbooks, table linens, cutlery, jams, jellies, and nut butter, while a broader international filing also included stationery, garden tools, lighting, tote bags, and pet accessories.
