Meghan Markle has unintentionally confirmed a long-circulating rumor about her husband, Prince Harry — and it all comes down to his unusual eating habits.

In the second season of her Netflix series With Love, Meghan, the 44-year-old Duchess of Sussex shared a surprising revelation about the Duke during a chat with Spanish-American chef José Andrés. Known for her love of cooking, Meghan told the chef that Harry “refuses” to eat one particular food — lobster.

“Do you know who doesn’t like lobster?” she said with a laugh. “My husband.”
Andrés immediately joked back, “And you married him?!”

Her offhand comment seemed to confirm a long-held belief about the British royal family — that seafood, especially shellfish, is often avoided due to the risk of food poisoning.

Former royal butler Grant Harrold previously told The Express that this long-standing practice has a practical purpose. “It is a very sensible move to abandon having seafood when out and about on public duties,” he said. “We don’t want a member of the royal family having a serious reaction to food poisoning, especially on an overseas tour. Therefore, you will not normally find this on the royal menu.”
