Meghan Markle’s Friend Just Confirmed She Released Another Product for American Rivieria Orchard
After years of speculation, Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, revealed in March 2024 that her new blog and empire is ready to be unveiled: her blog, American Riviera Orchard. Despite being made public in March, there have been virtually no updates. She hasn’t made the blog yet, nor has she made any shop features available.
Meghan has sent in quite a few trademark applications for creating products like kitchen appliances, skincare, and more for the brand. The first product she made somewhat public was that controversial strawberry jam that was gifted to only a few VIPs, and now, the same thing is happening for the brand’s second-ever product.
On June 14, Meghan and Prince Harry’s best friend Nacho Figueras shared photos on his Instagram Stories via People, which showed American Riviera Orchard’s newest product: the raspberry jam.
Yes, another jam is coming, and from what we can tell by the packaging, it seems Figueras may be one of two recipients of this jam version so far.
Now, are we going to see the Buckingham Palace show off their jams like they did with their strawberry preserves, when Meghan was making headlines? Per the Royal Collection Shop, it doesn’t seem like they have anything raspberry, but if that changes, there could be another jam war.
For those who don’t know, Meghan has had a history of blogging for a long time, even before her well-known lifestyle The Tig, which lasted from 2014 to 2017, after she started getting serious with Prince Harry. Even before The Tig, she anonymously ran a blog from 2010 to 2012 called The Working Actress, which detailed the “pitfalls and triumphs of struggling to make it in Hollywood.” per Hello.
While she has an extensive background in blogging, it’s never quite been on this large of a scale before, so she could potentially be lining her ducks in a row before her first official launch to the public.
