Meghan Markle releases brand new wine and £21 jar of honey
The Duchess of Sussex has finally revealed the newest range of lifestyle products with her brand As Ever, surprising many with the outrages prices and limited availability
Meghan Markle has finally released her new range of products with her lifestyle brand As Ever, with many fans online shocked by the inflated prices and slim availability of her second brand launch. Meghan's brand is now selling a selection of new food items, including an apricot spread, a limited edition orange blossom honey, and a brand new Rosé wine, marking her foray into the world of alcoholic drinks.
The 2023 pink booze from Napa Valley, California, will be sold on As Ever from July 1, with eager fans excited about their new summer tipple. As well as the range of new products, Meghan has restocked from fan favourite items, including the flower sprinkles, crepe mix, herbal teas, and shortbread cookie mix. While many are excited about the new range of summer entertaining goodies, other have been left perplexed by the price.
The orange blossom honey is available with a hefty price tag of $28, or £21, while the apricot spread in her signature keepsake packaging will set you back $14, or £10. International fans have also been let down by the release, as the products are only available for shipping within the United States.
Meghan first teased the products on her brand's Instagram account earlier this week, writing in the caption alongside a picture of a stack of pancakes: 'Oh yes, honey…sweet things await. We're bringing back your favorites, plus some delicious surprises you won't want to miss!'
In a newsletter to fans, she said: "First off, a sincere thank you for making the debut of As Ever absolutely extraordinary. We had a feeling there would be excitement, but to see everything sell out in less than an hour was an amazing surprise.
"We are pleased to share that on June 20th, we're going live with the products you love – plus, some new delicious surprises," adding that "so much love has gone into this".
The new release of the new products come after Meghan revealed that she would be focusing more on her lifestyle brand, and not renewing her podcast for a second season any time soon.
Speaking candidly on the Aspire podcast with host Emma Grede, Meghan acknowledged "that there is so much excitement and desire for another season" of the podcast, but added, "I need to focus on my business. People seem to forget that very rarely do people see everything that's happening behind the scenes."
In addition to Meghan's podcast and lifestyle brand, she is also working on a second season of her Netflix show - With Love, Meghan - which is expected to premiere later this year.
Joking with podcast host Emma Grede, Meghan said: "At a certain point, the only thing I want spread thin is my jam."

Lizzo says she tried Ozempic amid weight loss journey
Lizzo shared new details about her recent weight loss journey and got real about weight-loss drugs in a new appearance on the 'Just Trish' podcast, hosted by internet personality Trisha Paytas. When Paytas asked the 37-year-old pop star if she's ever experimented with weight-loss drugs, Lizzo replied: 'I've tried everything. It's just the science for me: calories in, versus calories out. Ozempic works because you eat less food. That's it. It makes you feel full. So if you can just do that on your own and get mind over matter, it's the same.' Lizzo previously addressed rumors that she used Ozempic to lose weight in an Instagram post in September 2024, explaining that she'd been focusing on 'weight training and calorie deficit.' In the podcast episode, the 'Truth Hurts' singer went on to reveal that she really started to lose weight once she scaled back on her vegan lifestyle. 'When I was vegan, I was consuming a lot of fake meats,' she recalled. 'I was eating a lot of bread. I was eating a lot of rice. And I had to eat a lot of it to stay full. But really, I was consuming like 3,000 to 5,000 calories a day.' 'We live in a society that makes super calorically dense food and they hide it,' she continued. 'So you're eating something that's small and you think, 'Oh yeah this is a healthy little protein bar.' It'll be like 300 calories and filled with all this fake sugar and weird s--- that f---- you up on the inside that you're not even aware of. Then you'd still be hungry.' Protein bars and fake meats are two foods often considered health foods but can actually be unhealthy, dietitian Collin Popp, Ph.D., previously told Lizzo added that eating more 'whole foods' and meats, such as beef, chicken and fish, was a game changer for her health because she was no longer eating 'a lot of like fake things ... that wasn't actually filling me up.' While Lizzo has found success with this particular approach, she emphasized that there's no one-size-fits-all weight-loss method. 'I don't like to tell people too much about releasing weight, like what I did, because I don't want people to do what I did and it doesn't work for them,' she said. 'Everybody's body is different. So I don't know if GLP-1 might be the only thing that works for you because I don't know what your blood work is like. I don't know how your body breaks down food (and) sugar. I don't know. But I know for me I just had to start eating meat again.' While appearing on the 'Just Trish' podcast, the star also explained that she was motivated to lose weight after experiencing back pain. 'My back was in such a bad place where I couldn't stand for more than like 15 minutes at a time. I had to sit down and do figure 4s and stretch my back out during dance rehearsal for tour,' she said. She'd also have to stretch her back while changing outfits between songs and do a cold plunge 'immediately' after each show since her back was 'radiating so much pain.' The singer noted that the discomfort stemmed from compressed discs in her back. 'The only way to really alleviate that is surgery or releasing a little bit of weight. So I was like, I want to be Tina Turner. I want to be doing stadium shows when I'm 70. If my back is on this track right now, there's no way I'm going to be able to do that without serious surgery. So that was my decision,' she said.
