Meghan Markle's 'MasterChef Junior Australia' co-star defends her

Poh Ling Yeow, a co-star of Meghan Markle on 'MasterChef Junior Australia,' defended the Duchess of Sussex during an interview with 'Pedestrian TV.'

Yeow described their upcoming project as 'the ultimate clapback' to previous reports of tension during their earlier collaboration on 'MasterChef Australia.'

She praised Markle for her resilience in the face of criticism, calling her 'a will of steel' and expressing 'even more admiration' for her.

Yeow acknowledged the 'fallout' from their previous work together, noting that 'rumors just follow' the 'Suits' alum, but said it was 'fine.'

Page Six confirmed that Yeow and Markle would be working together again, with the actress nabbing a 'special guest' role in 'MasterChef Junior Australia.' In a press release, Markle said she was 'excited' to participate, citing her love for cooking with her children and watching young chefs in action.

Yeow described reuniting with Markle as a 'real treat,' recalling they had a 'lovely time' on their previous project.

Despite past reports of conflict on 'MasterChef Australia,' an insider confirmed the duo 'had a great time' on set, with no frustration from Markle.

The 'MasterChef Junior Australia' series is set to air in 2027, with exact filming dates yet to be confirmed.

Markle is currently away from her and Prince Harry’s England home as they travel with their little ones during the October half-term break, which insiders believe is a 'convenient opportunity to let headlines settle.'
