Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are leaning into their personal hobbies for their next streaming ventures.

On April 11, Deadline announced that Archewell Productions has green-lit two Netflix series surrounding their own personal hobbies, with Meghan Markle’s project focusing on “the joys of cooking and gardening, entertaining and friendship.” The series will center on Markle, who will serve as executive producer. The second series, which is also in “early stages,” will highlight professional polo, one of Harry’s favorite sports.

This announcement comes about a month after Meghan Markle subtly announced her mysterious new lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard, which many believe will act as a Goop-ified version of her old blog, The Tig. There are even rumors that the Duchess of Sussex will be releasing a makeup line, as cosmetics were among the goods and services listed in the brand’s recent trademark filings, according to People.

A cooking show seems like the perfect fit for Markle’s influencer era—and she appears to be taking notes from the best. According to Deadline, Markle has tapped showrunner Leah Hariton, who previously worked as a producer on Selena Gomez’s own HBO cooking series, Selena + Chef.

Frankly, Gomez would be an ideal guest star for the first season of Markle’s new Netflix show. Both women began their careers as actors, share an affinity for cooking, and use their platforms to advocate for mental health awareness. With her own cosmetics brand possibly in the works, this could be the perfect opportunity for Markle to pick Gomez’s brains on the creation of Rare Beauty. I would like to see it.

All this to say…Meghan Markle pop album, when?
