A recent video featuring Meghan Markle and her friend Kelly has stirred up quite a reaction online, with many questioning the so-called “reinvented” banana split.
In the clip, Meghan and Kelly are seen sampling a breakfast dish labeled as a healthier take on the classic banana split. However, instead of the traditional ice cream and banana combination, the dish consists of a halved banana topped with granola and berries. While the intent may have been to offer a nutritious alternative, viewers quickly pointed out that the dish barely resembles the dessert it claims to reinvent.
The video’s caption, which reads, “When one of the besties reinvents a banana split for breakfast,” has led some to believe that Meghan was actually the mastermind behind the dish but framed it as Kelly’s creation. Critics highlighted Kelly’s facial expressions throughout the video, suggesting she appeared less than thrilled about the whole ordeal.
Social media users were quick to mock the presentation, with many arguing that simply cutting a banana in half and adding toppings does not constitute a reinvention. “It’s just a banana with berries on it—nothing groundbreaking,” one commenter pointed out. Others noted Kelly’s seemingly unenthusiastic demeanor, speculating that she may not have been fully aware of Meghan’s attempt to frame the dish as something special.
This is not the first time Meghan has been accused of overhyping ordinary things, and some critics argue that the moment feels staged. “Every time Meghan and Harry try to present something as profound, the reactions of those around them often tell a different story,” one observer noted.
Whether intended as a lighthearted moment or an attempt to showcase a new food trend, the video has certainly sparked conversation. However, many remain unconvinced that this so-called reinvention is anything more than a simple breakfast tweak.
