The Duchess of Sussex, 43, shared a short clip from a deleted scene, filmed for her Netflix series that premiered on March 4.

“There was so much goodness on Season 1 of ‘With Love, Meghan’ on @netflix that didn’t make it in, there just wasn’t enough time!” she wrote in the caption of her Instagram post.

Wellness therapist and guest Randi Karin was in the kitchen when Meghan offered a trick on how to cut pineapple in a simple, easy way.

“This scene with sweet Randi Karin (@soulrefugespa) is especially fun as you think about summer entertaining tips and tricks,” the Duchess added in the caption.

“A trick that people do with pineapple, instead of just cutting it…” she told Randi while giving a demo with the fruit.

She proceeded to cut the pineapple along the diagonal lines and said, “To make the perfect little bite, you follow the wedge.”

“When nature has given you all the cues on how to have a perfect taste of something,” she added just before savoring a bite of the fruit.

“How fun is that. I love it,” Randi said.

The episode guest went on to try the trick herself, and it worked perfectly.

“The audience isn’t stupid. It was precut for you,” read one comment online

Some netizens were left bemused by the demo and claimed the hack has been floating around social media for years.

“She needs to give it up,” one said, while another asked, “Who did she copy this idea from?”

“Sorry, but I’ve done that since I was 5…,” another said.

Others joked about what the next kitchen trick might be.

“Next week how to boil an egg,” one joked.

Another said, “How to boil water without burning the pot.”

“She thinks everybody is stupid and she knows all these amazing tricks,” read one comment online

After the March 4 premiere of With Love, Meghan, the eight-episode series amassed around 2.6 million views and 12.6 million hours watched in about a week.

The second season of the show has already been filmed and is slated to release on Netflix this fall.

“The series is about doing what you can do,” she told People in March, “and doing it with love.”

Meghan said the show put her back in her “honeymoon period” with Prince Harry.

“My husband met me when I had The Tig,” she said, referring to her lifestyle blog, which she shut down in 2017, ahead of tying the knot with the British royal.

“I see this spark in his eye when he sees me doing the thing that I was doing when he first met me,” she continued.

“It’s almost like a honeymoon period again, because it’s exactly how it was in the beginning when he’d watch me scribbling away, writing newsletters, fine-tuning edits and just really being in the details of it,” she said.

The Duchess said her husband has loved watching her make the Netflix series and launch her lifestyle brand As ever.

“I think he loves watching as much as I love doing that creative process. It’s just been fun. This is who I’ve always been,” she added.

Director Michael Steed and crew members of the lifestyle show spoke about what it was like working with the Suits alum.

“Most of the time, we’re expected to fade into the background, to be invisible,” a crew member told People. “But in this show, we were part of it. We were included. It was a very unique and refreshing experience.”

He said the royal mother-of-two made everyone feel included and would do something thoughtful for the crew each week.

“Whether it was a coffee cart in the morning or there was one day where the forecast called for it to be particularly hot, and she had a shaved ice truck for us at lunch,” the crew member said.

“One day, she had a bespoke ice cream cart with local homemade ice cream. She had an acai truck for us, too,” he added. “Every week, she did something like that for us. It was really lovely.

Director Michael described Meghan as “friendly” and “totally L.A., California, through and through.”

He said she would often play music in between scenes, and he would eventually have to turn it off to keep the shoot on track.

“I was always the one who had to turn the music off—that as my role to keep everything on track. She’d call me the ‘Brooklyn Bummer,’” he laughed and said.
