Meghan Markle has launched a luxury lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard with a glitzy Instagram video. [Snip] Her new project is said to have been in the works for more than a year--and feature 'all the things that are close to her heart'. [Snip] The announcement comes on the same night as Prince Harry and Prince William are set to make a rare joint appearance at the Diana Legacy Award event at the Science Museum in London--but neither will be in the room at the same time, even virtually.

A lifestyle and cooking brand that will feature 'all the things that are close to her heart'. Sort of like a cross between Martha Stewart and the Oprah. The horror.

AS we tune in today, ( someone cue up the cheesy organ music ) we find that Sparkle Markel Farkle believes that she is the new queen of kitchen/ living arts. Martha Stewart need not be afraid. The Dukette, filled with envy and no sense of reality will be trying convince her 10 followers that California has the same cache as The South of France. Good luck with that. Poor Prince Harkle , he had so much and now winds up with cut rate scullery help.
Will the Duke ever wake up and get back to his real life? Will the Dukette ever get over herself? And what about the leverage kids Arkle and Larkle, will they ever know that they're game pieces?
For that answers to these and other worthless questions tune on tomorrow, next week of next year for another chapter of " The Unmerry Wife of Windsor ", seeking privacy but appearing everything for cold hard cash.

Yawn...Meghan's too lazy to make anything; she'll probably have someone else create these products and pass them off as her own. It's her modus operandi. Besides, we already have QVC and HSN not to mention numerous other shopping sites from which to choose. Her name and title isn't that much of a selling point, either; it's just another venture pitched by this narcissistic grifter which will go nowhere soon enough.

Thank you #3. You are a creative wordsmith.
I anticipate a recipe for 'Traffic Jam for people waiting to meet ME.'
Can I compete?
Microwave Jam (no sugar)
Ingredients
• 1 cup berries raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, or a mix rinsed
• 1/4 tsp corn starch
Instructions
1. Put the berries in a large glass bowl. If you are using blackberries and they are large, cut them in half. Toss the berries with the cornstarch.
2. Cover the bowl with a dinner plate, and microwave for 3 minutes. Give it a stir. If your jam is still very runny, pop it back into the microwave for 30 second intervals. Be careful, it will get quite hot.
3. Spoon the jam into a clean jar and let cool Store in the refrigerator, the jam will firm up as it cools

Wondering when she will be Today"s Special Value on QVC. Maybe one of their 24 hour cooking days where she can be featured over and over again. Jam? Really? LOL OMG what a joke these two are. Not reading her book or blog, listening to her on Netflix or eating her jam. My goodness but she looks silly doing these things. But go ahead she has the right to do what she wants as long as she wants.

Never enough. But I'll bet the Royals are all in on telling we little people to accept our meager fates to save the planet.

From the comments after the article it would seem her timing was curious. . .debut on the anniversary of Diana's passing. This woman is just so evil it's just jaw dropping.

She needs a big red "L" tattooed on her forehead - backwards, so she can read it in the mirror.

Harry and Meghan are the new Kardashians. Famous for doing nothing but crassly trading on Harry’s name. I highly doubt that the royal family pays much attention to them.

#3- What a gem! I'm sure Wallace is spinning in her grave. Megan looks so much like her in the picture, I think they did that on purpose.

Wallis was classy. Meghan couldn't spell it.
Montecito people hate this kind of commercialization of their home. Julia Child never pulled this stuff when she lived there,

Technically she's no longer a duchess. Charles pulled those titles. And I had to laugh at the phrase "...long waited" like anyone cares. And Marbles, you hit it out of the park today. Fantastic post.

Hey, I kind of like Martha Stewart, liberal that she is. At least her recipes are good. Meghan will hire out someone to come up with content. There will be nothing creative or original. I look for her recipes to be some disappointing stuff re-hashed from the women's mags. Those two are Eddie and Wallis all over again.

Gather a foursome of tedious Meghans - Markle, McCain, Rapinoe (Megan, close enough), Kelly (ditto Megyn). An oblivious assemblage of surpassing self-importance. Call it The Eww.

After being told expressly not to monetize the royal connection by Her Majesty The Late Queen, Herself slaps a crown on her logo. The nicest thing Incan say about her is that she is a Piece. Of. Work.

"American Riviera"? Hmm, did she and Harry move to the Florida Panhandle, aka Redneck Riviera?

Although harboring a personal aversion to things “Meghan,” this article is being posted to exhibit another “coincidence” in the melodramatic life of Meghan and Harry—“coincidence” being the numerous times their escapades have tended to eclipse scheduled, meaningful Royal Family events while demurely or vigorously denying any personal influence in having purposefully intended to distract or usurp Royal Family events. Launching an alleged year-long project on an evening paying tribute to Princess Diana with a scheduled live appearance of Prince William seems a bit beyond “coincidental. / Might Yogi Berra’s perspective be a consideration? “That’s too coincidental to be a coincidence.”
