Meghan Markle's lucrative new business move revealed
Meghan Markle is planning to add hotels and restaurants to her growing business empire after trademarking it for 'hospitality services'. The Duchess of Sussex is expanding her lifestyle brand, As Ever, to include places to stay, 'provision of food and drink' and temporary lodgings, according to The Sun. The former actress could serve some of her own food creations — including recipes flaunted on her Netflix series 'With Love, Meghan'. Experts say it showed the 43-year-old royal's ambition to move forward and focus on the future, while husband Prince Harry, 40, seems stuck reflecting on the past. The 'Suits' alum has spent the year rebranding herself away from runaway royal to a lifestyle, entertaining and star hostess. Brand experts said hotels and restaurants fit in with her lifestyle business image.

Posts include pictures of her gardening, preparing fresh fruit and baking. PR and branding expert Jack Izzard, of Gallia Communications, said of her trademark application: 'In terms of positioning, it's not a million miles from where As Ever is. 'She is very much positioning herself as a star hostess, Californian royalty who makes her guests feel welcome. 'The issue she's potentially going to have is that's a completely different skill set, running a hospitality business. 'A night in an As Ever B&B will be several hundred pounds. That's really going to blow up if it's bad.' Mr Izzard said her recent activities are 'all about her reclaiming her voice' and building her brand. He added: 'She always intimated she was stifled by life in the Royal Family. 'She's got to earn a living. It's very much 'I'm this Californian hostess now'. 'Harry's still stuck in the past and trying to settle scores. She is looking ahead, forging this brand.' The Sun approached the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for comment.

Meghan's ‘hotel and restaurant' plan revealed as she looks to expand empire
The Duchess of Sussex is adding hotels and restaurants to her brand wish list as she goes on a social media charm offensive to win new fans. Ex-actress Meghan is trademarking her lifestyle firm As Ever for 'hospitality services'. It will include places to stay, 'provision of food and drink' and temporary lodgings, reports The Sun.

Last week, she shared an 80-second video of her twerking in hospital in a bid to induce labour when she was pregnant and overdue with Lilibet. It attracted criticism in Britain for being vulgar. But a source said: 'Meghan is very pleased with the video. 'In the UK everyone's reaction has been a bit prudish but everywhere else, particularly in America and especially with young people, it's been a huge hit. 'Californian royalty' 'Her new products are marketed at Americans and not the UK.' Meghan has also posted videos of her family at Disneyland, beekeeping with daughter Lilibet, and going to a Beyonce concert with Harry. Her As Ever Instagram page launched in February.
