Meghan Markle has once again served up an Instagram-worthy moment—this time, with a pristine cabbage that looks more Whole Foods than homegrown. Because nothing says “down-to-earth gardening guru” quite like a spotless wicker basket of produce, free from even the tiniest speck of dirt.

The now-viral photo was shared on her ever-polished American Riviera Orchard brand page, featuring Meghan strolling through an immaculately kept garden in a casual jeans-and-mules combo, effortlessly carrying a basket of perfectly arranged vegetables. The caption? “It’s the first day of spring, let’s celebrate.”

Naturally, the internet wasted no time dissecting the photo. Observant skeptics immediately pointed out that neither Meghan nor her so-called homegrown produce showed any signs of actual gardening.

“100% there is never soil,” one commenter remarked, calling attention to the suspicious cleanliness of her hands, feet, and basket. Another quipped, “You don’t expect her to touch dirt, do you?”

But let’s dig deeper into this leafy scandal. Many critics noted that the cabbage in question didn’t even look like something you’d eat. “It looks like landscaper’s cabbage,” one sharp-eyed user pointed out, referring to the type used for decorative purposes in front yards rather than for fresh salads.

Another chimed in, “That’s ornamental cabbage, sold and planted in late fall—not exactly fresh-picked from the Sussex estate.”

And then, there’s the basket. Oh, the basket.

Its handle positioning in relation to Meghan’s outstretched fingers defied all logical grip dynamics. “Something about her hand position doesn’t make sense,” one observer noted. “Is she holding the handle by her fingertips? The basket has a short, arched handle, but her hand extends way above the highest point of the arch.”

The more people scrutinized, the more bizarre the image seemed. “Why do her arms come down to her knees? Is she trolling us?” a baffled commenter asked. Others suggested that the entire image looked like a poorly stitched-together collage of mismatched elements—her arms, the vegetables, and the basket itself.

Could Meghan’s latest attempt at portraying pastoral perfection actually be Photoshopped? Say it ain’t so.

Even her choice of footwear didn’t escape scrutiny. “Who wears mules to walk through the grass?” one person wondered, highlighting the impracticality of prancing through a garden in fashion-forward slip-ons.

Another critic summed it up perfectly: “Her idea of reality is whatever she thinks belongs in a glossy magazine.”

And honestly, where’s the lie?

At this point, it’s not even about the cabbage anymore. It’s about the never-ending attempt to curate a relatable aesthetic that no one is buying.

One exasperated critic nailed it: “All she’s doing is merching that basket. American hustler. Silly clown.”

Because the reality of gardening? It’s messy. It’s sweaty. And it definitely involves dirt. Yet, here stands Meghan—flawlessly styled, untouched by nature’s chaos, holding a picture-perfect basket of suspiciously pristine vegetables.

Once again, the internet isn’t fooled.
