A star on ITV's Lorraine has taken a cheeky swipe at Meghan Markle, just minutes into the show.
Introducing the Hollywood segment, LA correspondent Ross King cut in to announce his 'shocking news'.
The presenter went on to discuss Meghan's plans to cut back from the products she sold earlier this year.
'Let's not mention jam, let's say it was spread,' he began, talking about the Duchess' infamous jams, which sold out in minutes when she originally launched.
He then quipped: 'Meghan Markle spread… That in itself sounds somewhat ruder than I thought it was going to be.'
Ross went on to comment that it was never known how many jars of her spread had been sold, saying: 'Well done, she sold out, but here is the bit of sad news that I bring to the world this morning.'
As Lorraine could be heard giggling in the studio, Ross continued: 'You might not be able to get it ever again.'
He laughed that it was hardly shocking, before explaining that Meghan had hinted new plans away from jam.
Meghan's As Ever launch in April sold out in 45 minutes, with products like jam, honey and herbal teas being introduced.
But in the final episode of her podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder, she announced she plans on taking a 'step back, gather data from the launch, and figure out exactly what As Ever could be.'
She went on: 'I want to really focus on the hospitality angle of As Ever, but as we take the learnings, we can understand what the customer's needs are seasonally.'

'My heart is very deeply in my home. Everything comes from being rooted in the love story of your home and garden, and then you can imagine different verticals coming out of that.'
When probed on if she could move towards a clothing line, Meghan replied: 'Fashion is a category I plan to explore down the line because I find it to be an interesting space for me.'
As per Fast Company, she added: 'If I had to write a résumé, I don't know what I would call myself.'
On her As Ever website, Meghan's $12 Herbal Lemon Ginger Tea and $15 Flower Sprinkles sold out along with shortbread and crepe mixes, though the website hints 'more coming soon'.
Lorraine airs weekdays from 9am on ITV1 and ITVX.

As Natalie pointed out in her Instagram video revealing her diagnosis, there has been increasing numbers of cases being picked up in adulthood. The 45-year-old said getting the diagnosis "brought up a lot of things, and it's made a lot of things make sense." "There's that kind of relief and self-understanding that comes with it, and then there's also probably some grief there of knowing that had I had that understanding earlier on in life... might have changed the course of things for me," Natalie said. "There's so many things that I'm now looking back at and going, 'oh, that explains it'." Natalie spoke on experiencing emotional dysregulation and rejection sensitivity disorder which are common symptoms of ADHD. "It's interesting times [for me], and I think I've definitely felt my symptoms more because of my perimenopause... it's become so much more apparent, and I've found that quite frustrating," she said. "Although I knew I had a lot of the symptoms, I think just hearing someone else confirm it [has helped]." Natalie added: "I think the fundamental part of it is like self-acceptance. and compassion for yourself. "That's so key, because I'm having to extend a lot of grace to myself." 'I didn't know how to cope' reveals Freddie Brazier, 20, as he opens up about his struggle with ADHD Natalie's followers thanked her for her honesty and reacted to the video in the comments section of her post. "It's a complex thing to process so definitely give yourself the time you need - lots of mixed emotions, and I'm sure the waves will rise and fall as you come to terms with them," wrote one person.

The 9 signs of ADHD in adults ADHD has long been associated with naughty schoolkids who cannot sit still in class. And that is part of it. Fidgeting, daydreaming and getting easily distracted are all symptoms of the behavioural condition, which is why it is often spotted in children. However, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is far more complex than simply having trouble focusing. Henry Shelford, CEO and co-founder of ADHD UK, says: 'If it isn't debilitating, it isn't ADHD.' In recent years, social media has given rise to trends which conflate specific personality traits or single behaviours with ADHD.

Though these may all point to the condition, Dr Elena Touroni, a consultant psychologist and co-founder of The Chelsea Psychology Clinic, says: 'The key distinction lies in how much a behaviour impacts a person's daily life. 'Genuine ADHD symptoms affect multiple areas of life - work, relationships and emotional wellbeing - whereas personality traits are typically context-dependent and less disruptive.'
