Netizens are buzzing about the Duchess of Sussex’s UK Mother’s Day post featuring a mouthwatering dessert. This comes after another instance where a dish she shared online sparked criticism.
On March 30, 2025, Meghan Markle offered her followers a glimpse into her family’s cherished Mothering Sunday tradition in the UK by posting a vibrant photo on Instagram. However, not everyone online was impressed with the beautifully presented treat.
The image showcased a golden lemon tart, its smooth, glossy surface catching the natural light. The dessert was elegantly adorned with carefully arranged lemon slices, red berries, and fresh mint leaves, evoking a refreshing springtime feel.
Resting on a rustic ceramic plate, the tart was gently held by two hands—one small and one larger—adding a warm, intimate touch to the scene.

“Not Prince Harry making this stunning cake for Meghan for UK Mother’s Day,” one fan commented, while another gushed, “So sweet, and it’s also so sweet that Harry and the kids baked it for her. I just realized that this year we’re going to get Mother’s and Father’s Day content from her AND MAYBE JUST MAYBE KIDS BIRTHDAY POSTS.”
However, the heartwarming gesture wasn’t without its critics. “It’s burnt around the edges,” a user pointed out bluntly.

Other comments focused on the tart’s appearance, with some noting it looked dry or unappealing. A few people pointed out the overcooked lemon slices and burnt crust, with one individual remarking, “A citron tart with burnt crust.”

That looks lovely!”
