All Meghan Markle's Lifestyle Products With As Ever
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Meghan Markle's As Ever online shop has now sold out in minutes on three occasions, leaving fans scrambling to get hold of her products, from jam to rosé wine. The Duchess of Sussex relaunched herself as a lifestyle guru in 2025, with her cooking show With Love, Meghan and its connected online shop. She also has a partnership with Netflix, ensuring demand is high for her assortment of store cupboard favorites and a few of her own unique offerings.

Inset: Her As Ever honey in a photo she posted on TIME/As Ever/Meghan, Duchess of Sussex Jam Meghan puts less sugar in her jams than regulations demand, meaning she terms them fruit spreads instead. Among the first on sale was her signature raspberry jam, at $9 a jar, which she had used to promote her new venture by sending it to celebrity friends in March 2024. In a newsletter announcing the release of her first products, she said: "Of course, you'll find the Raspberry Spread that started it all, presented in keepsake packaging that you can repurpose to tuck away love notes or special treasures, and to remember this pivotal moment with me. Think of it as our time capsule." She went on to offer apricot jam for $14 a jar in her second product release along with a limited-edition orange blossom honey for $28 a jar. Tea Lemon ginger tea, peppermint tea and hibiscus tea all sell for $12 for a tin of 12 bags, or $1 per bag. Meghan wrote in her April newsletter: "Every item is inspired by the ways I show care to the people in my life, like the lemon ginger tea blend which is a fuss-free spin on the warm drink I make at home using fresh lemons from the garden." The Republic of Tea is her supplier, and Meghan was accused of marking up her products after it emerged the company charges lower prices for its own similar range. A source told Newsweek that Republic of Teas offerings are not the same as Meghan's and the packaging used by As Ever is also more expensive. Crepe and Cookie Mix Meghan sells crepe mix at 11 servings for $14, and she charges the same for her short bread cookie and flower sprinkles mix. "Crepes remind me of my time backpacking through France as a student," she wrote. "Biting into these streetside thin pancakes—filled with chocolate, fruit, fresh lemon and powdered sugar, or made savory with ham and cheese—they truly are a canvas for flavor. "I wanted to bring that memory and experience to you at home. (Also, they're so easy to make!)" Flower Sprinkles Meghan featured her flower sprinkles on her Netflix show and was mocked for them on social media, but they have sold out along with her other products. Tubs from her online shop include Dried Rose, Calendula and Blue Cornflower Petals and Hibiscus Flowers, and cost $15 for 5g. Wine Meghan's first wine is a Napa Valley rosé and sold at $30 a bottle for a minimum of three with a $20 flat rate for shipping. The team at As Ever are working on debuting a sparkling wine, but Newsweek understands it will not be available until late summer at the earliest.

Unironed: Megan Markle's ‘Crumpled Chic' look leaves netizens outraged!
Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, may have glided onto the stage at the 2025 TIME100 Summit with regal poise and her ever-supportive husband Prince Harry in tow — but it was her linen ensemble, not her luminous joy, that got the internet truly buzzing. Meghan, Duchess of Sussex speaks onstage during the 2025 TIME100 Summit at Jazz at Lincoln Center on 23 April 2025 in New York City. Picture:for TIME Meghan's 'Crumpled Chic' at the 2025 Times100 Summit this week. Reports from the Fashion Trenches: We take a look at the fashion fuss. The moment was golden: Meghan, in her first major public appearance of the year, opened up during her interview about her newfound joy, declaring, 'I never imagined I would feel this grateful at this point in my life, and I truly do.' She spoke of happy kids, loving partners (cue Harry's soft smile from stage left), and the everyday milestones of motherhood—including the news that five-year-old Prince Archie is about to lose his first tooth. Royal teeth and royal tears — sweet, right? But while Meghan shared her heartfelt moments, the fashion world was busy… having a meltdown. Slouchy Chic suit Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, attends the 2025 TIME100 Summit at Jazz at Lincoln Center on 23 April 2025 in New York City. Picture:for TIME The Duchess stepped out in a beige-toned, linen Ralph Lauren pantsuit that was meant to scream 'quiet luxury' but instead whispered, 'I forgot to iron'. The suit—an almost sold-out piece from the designer's latest line—featured wide-legged trousers and a slightly oversized blazer. Think slouchy-chic meets boardroom brunch. But according to online critics, the only meeting happening here was between linen and chaos. The fit? 'Too baggy,' sniffed one fashion purist. 'Unironed and unimpressive,' said another. And one particularly savage comment declared: 'Sorry, Daily Mail, that is not chic. That's a crumpled, screwed-up mess and an insult to Ralph Lauren.' Ouch.

Because in the same breathless scroll through fashion Twitter (or is it still X?), many netizens leapt to Meghan's defence. They labelled the look 'effortless,' 'on-trend,' and part of the growing wave of 'dad-pants domination,' where loose silhouettes and laid-back tailoring reign.

Picture:And let's not forget—just weeks ago, the ever-flawless Actress Anne Hathaway attended the Ralph Lauren 2025 Fall collection in a near-identical suit, adding distressed sequinned denim and a high ponytail for good measure. That look went viral for all the right reasons. (L-R) Lauren Bush Lauren, David Lauren, Anne Hathaway and Naomi Watts attend the Ralph Lauren Collection Fall 2025 on 17 April 2025 in New York City. Picture:So what gives? Turns out, Meghan was actually on the pulse of where 2025 fashion is going: structured softness.

(Although yes, Duchess, a handheld steamer wouldn't have hurt.) A model walks the runway for the Ralph Lauren Collection Fall 2025 on 17 April 2025 in New York City. Picture:) Meghan's fashion misstep—or moment, depending on your taste—tells us one thing: we're in the era where fashion is less about perfection and more about how confidently you carry the crease. A model walks the runway for the Ralph Lauren Collection Fall 2025 on 17 April 2025 in New York City. Picture:The new trend? Lived-in luxury. Corporate casual. And the slow, glorious revenge of wrinkled fabric. So while the duchess may not have won everyone's approval, she's aligned with a movement that says: Yes, I can slay a keynote in something that doesn't cut off my circulation. And that, dear reader, is fashion-forward—whether you like it or not.

Ted Sarandos Says Netflix 'Saved Hollywood'
Ted Sarandos speaks onstage during the 2025 TIME100 Summit at Jazz at Lincoln Center on April 23, 2025 in New York City Credit - Jemal Countess—Getty Images for TIME The TIME100 Summit closed out with a Ted talk—that is, a talk with Ted Sarandos, co-CEO of Netflix. When asked by TIME Editor-in-Chief Sam Jacobs whether Netflix has 'destroyed Hollywood,' Sarandos, who is on TIME's 2025 list of the world's most influential people, argued that the streamer has actually 'saved Hollywood.' 'We deliver the program to you in a way you want to watch it,' he said on Wednesday. For many, he said, that means watching movies and TV shows at home. He argued that Netflix is providing a service to Americans in rural areas, who might not have as easy access to movie theaters. As to whether it is outdated to make movies for cinemas so people can watch them as a communal experience, Sarandos said, 'I believe it is an outmoded idea, for most people—not for everybody.' In fact, Netflix did take over the last single screen movie theater in Manhattan in 2019. Sarandos, who also made the 2013 TIME100 list, said Netflix subscribers are watching six different genres all the time, and noted how a promotional event for WWE Monday Night RAW included a live chamber music performance inspired by Bridgerton. Sarandos also reflected on comments he made earlier in the day at Semafor's World Economy Summit when he said that the entertainment industry often gets 'thrown under the bus' when it comes to trade deals. Sarandos said he was describing how in trade deals, even before President Donald Trump's current trade war, a free trade agreement with a country might include an exception for entertainment, requiring a minimum investment obligation that only the entertainment businesses have to follow. 'What I was saying is, it's often that the entertainment industry doesn't get treated like a real business, and that's one of the examples of it.' --- The TIME100 Summit convenes leaders from the global TIME100 community to spotlight solutions and encourage action toward a better world. This year's summit features a variety of speakers across a diverse range of sectors, including business, health and science, AI, culture, and more. Speakers for the 2025 TIME100 Summit include human rights advocate Yulia Navalnaya; Meghan, Duchess of Sussex; comedian Nikki Glaser; climate justice activist Catherine Colman Flowers; Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos, and many more, plus a performance by Nicole Scherzinger. The 2025 TIME100 Summit was presented by Circle, Diriyah Company, Prudential Financial, Toyota, Amazon, Absolut, Pfizer, and XPRIZE. Write to Olivia B. Waxman at
