Meghan Markle's latest venture, American Riviera Orchard, has come under fire after releasing what critics describe as an overly effusive statement about her strawberry jam. The brand, which recently sent jars to influencers, claimed the product was made with 'the utmost care'—a remark that has drawn scepticism given the ongoing scrutiny of the Duchess of Sussex's business endeavours.
Royal commentators have questioned the timing of the promotional push, suggesting it risks overshadowing Prince Harry's recent charitable efforts. The couple's strained relationship with the royal family continues to fuel public debate, with every commercial move closely analysed for perceived insensitivity.
Social media reactions have been mixed, with some fans praising the entrepreneurial spirit while others accuse the venture of being tone-deaf. The controversy highlights the delicate balance Meghan must strike as she navigates her post-royal career in the spotlight.
