Earlier this year, Paltrow did an interview with Vanity Fair in which she told the magazine, “I don’t know Meghan and Harry,” who also live in Montecito, California. “I mean, I’ve met Meghan, who seems really lovely, but I don’t know her at all.
“Maybe I’ll try to get through their security detail and bring them a pie.”

Paltrow, who also found her way to the lifestyle space after an acting career, told Vanity Fair she wasn’t overly familiar with Markle’s widely panned Netflix show, “With Love, Meghan,” or her brand As Ever but was inclined to support her.
Referring to the backlash Markle has received, Paltrow said when “there’s noise about certain women in the culture, I do have, always, a strong instinct to stand up for them.
“I was raised to see other women as friends, not foes. I think there’s always more than enough to go around. Everybody deserves an attempt at everything that they want to try.”
