Mindy Kaling appears on With Love, Meghan, but how did they become friends in the first place?
They've been close for years!
Mindy Kaling appeared in episode two of With Love, Meghan and has faced some serious backlash over accidentally calling her the wrong name, although she has now responded.
But when and how did the pair start becoming friends? Let’s have a look into the adorable friendship of Mindy Kaling and Meghan Markle prior to her appearance on With Love, Meghan.
It seems the pair first started growing close after Mindy appeared on Meghan’s now-cancelled Spotify podcast, Archetypes, in 2022. Mindy starred in an episode called The Stigma of The Singleton, with the pair talking about a variety of topics.
During the first moments of the podcast, Mindy admitted to Meghan that she doesn’t “do podcasts” and felt “really nervous” about her appearance.
She continued: “I want to be really honest when I speak, and sometimes when you’re honest, it can p*ss people off.”
Throughout the podcast, Mindy and Meghan discussed the stigma around being single, with Mindy opening up about her decision not to publicly name the father of her children.
Meghan commented: “Mindy’s a really private person and, despite pressure from the public and the media, she’s worked especially hard to maintain that privacy around her kids. Ignoring all the speculation around details of their lives and even of their conception. Which, by the way, how is that anyone’s business?”
Mindy and Meghan’s friendship continued to thrive before her appearance on With Love, Meghan as she was one of the first to receive a jar of Meghan’s famous jam last March.
She was part of an ultra-exclusive group of just 50 people who received the limited-edition jam before the official launch of Meghan’s lifestyle brand, and if that doesn’t solidify you as friends, I don’t know what does.
