Meghan Markle is facing unexpected backlash after a fan claimed she suffered serious burns from recreating a homemade bath salt recipe featured on the Duchess’s new Netflix series, With Love, Meghan.

Robin Patrick, who spoke exclusively to Radar Online on Wednesday, revealed that she had followed Markle’s recipe—which was intended as a heartfelt gift to the Duchess’s longtime friend and makeup artist, Daniel Martin—after being inspired by the show. The mixture included Epsom salt, Himalayan salt, arnica oil, and lavender oil. However, Patrick alleges that after testing the bath salts in her own tub, she experienced a severe reaction that left her skin burned. Now, she says she’s considering suing the Duchess for $10 million, citing negligence and public influence. The situation has raised questions about celebrity wellness advice and personal accountability, as viewers wonder whether Markle will respond—or face legal consequences.

However, she claimed she immediately felt that something was wrong.

“Initially, I experienced a mild tingling sensation without discomfort,” Patrick claimed to Radar Online.

“However, as the water level rose to cover my legs and reached my buttocks, I began to feel burning and significant discomfort in those areas,” she added.

“I immediately exited the tub, stopped the water, and later stirred the bathwater with my right hand and arm to assess the mixture.”

She then alleged that she drained the tub and applied Gold Bond lotion on her body, which provided no relief. Patrick then told the outlet that she used a lidocaine spray, which temporarily reduced the pain.

“That evening, while showering, I experienced intense burning as water contacted the affected areas, which had developed into ulcers,” she claimed.

“To date, the burns are still not healed and are quite uncomfortable. The others are just sore as heck to touch,” Patrick claimed.

“Since the incident, I have endured persistent burning, discomfort, and the emergence of new blister-like sores and ulcers daily. These symptoms have disrupted my daily and nightly routines, preventing me from taking warm showers or wearing clothing over the affected areas.”

Patrick, who has diabetes, said she is “deeply concerned about the risk of infection, sepsis, or other complications.”

“The pain feels as though it is burning from within,” she alleged.

Patrick told the outlet that Markle, 43, had a “duty of care” to provide “adequate warnings” to viewers about the potential dangers of using the salts due to the essential oils in the concoction.

She is reportedly seeking a “minimum” of $75,000 to cover medical expenses and $10 million from Markle, Netflix and Archewell Productions for their “reckless disregard for public safety and to deter similar conduct in the future.”

Patrick said she is willing to settle out of court if a financial agreement can be reached.

Cameron Stracher, a lawyer for the mom of two, reportedly said in a letter April 22 that Patrick should have known about the risks of using Epsom salts as a diabetic person.

“The use of Epsom salts is contraindicated for individuals with diabetes except on the advice of a physician,” the attorney wrote in a letter obtained by Radar Online.

“As your letter recognizes, a duty of care requires a ‘foreseeable’ injury. It was not foreseeable that you would disregard the instructions on the Epsom salt packaging in attempting to make and use your own bath salts,” Stracher added.
