If the past few weeks have proved anything, it’s that Meghan Markle simply can’t blink without someone turning it into prime-time commentary.
From warehouse whispers about her lifestyle brand to reality TV shade in Beverly Hills, the Duchess of Sussex has found herself at the center of relentless mockery — and this time, it’s coming from both sides of the Atlantic.
Brutally mocked live
The latest storm began on Sky News Australia, where presenter Caleb Bond tore into Meghan’s lifestyle venture, As Ever. During the segment, Bond didn’t hold back.
”If you’ve watched that series she put out on Netflix, With Love, Meghan, you probably haven’t seen it. Don’t waste your time, I tried it out just so I could tell you it’s a load of c**p.”
He went on to mock the premise of the show and her product line, adding:
”But she shows herself in a house which she claims to be hers, which isn’t her house, making jam and all sorts of things. Which she’s been trying to sell, but it turns out nobody wants to buy the jam, and there are massive reserves of it at the Netflix HQ, where they are storing it.”
According to claims cited during the broadcast, as many as 137,465 jars of jam were allegedly sitting in storage, with staff reportedly helping themselves.
Bond continued:
”Because it’s not selling, 137,465 jars of this stuff, the staff are now just taking it. They’re just going into the warehouse and taking it for free because no one wants to buy it, just like no one wants to buy anything this woman sells.”
Reports suggested that alongside the jam, candles, wine and her signature flower sprinkles were also being stored at Netflix’s Hollywood campus, with one insider claiming:
“Apparently, there are two storage rooms packed with As ever product. They’re literally just giving it away to employees. One (staffer) walked out with 10 products for free.”
Another source added bluntly: “There’s so much overstock.”
What makes the narrative even sharper is that when As Ever first launched in April 2025, the initial collection — including raspberry jam and wildflower honey — reportedly sold out within an hour. At the time, headlines boasted about products “flying off the shelves.” Now, critics argue the momentum hasn’t lasted.
Reality TV shade in Beverly Hills
As if that wasn’t enough, Meghan’s 2021 comments about not researching the Royal Family resurfaced — this time on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
During a recent episode, actress Jennifer Tilly referenced Meghan while defending her own habit of Googling people.
“I googled Amanda (Frances), just like I Googled everyone else in the group. I know all the history of Amanda. It’s all out there; it’s on Reddit. It’s everywhere.”
Then came the line that lit up social media:
“Even the people in the group that are saying, ’Oh, I never Google anyone,’ We all Google everybody. It’s like Meghan Markle saying, ’I never Googled Prince Harry before I dated him,’ it’s like Meghan, please.”
The remark was a direct nod to Meghan’s now-infamous 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey, where she said: “I didn’t do any research about what that would mean. I didn’t feel any need to, because everything I needed to know, he was sharing with me. Everything we thought I needed to know, he was telling me.”
Her husband, Prince Harry, later defended her in his memoir Spare, even recalling that she once mistook his uncle for Queen Elizabeth’s assistant — joking:
“She definitely hadn’t googled us.”
Between claims of overstocked jam and being name-checked on U.S. reality television, Meghan has faced a steady wave of public ribbing.
Whether the reports about her brand signal a genuine sales slump or simply the usual swirl of royal-adjacent drama, one thing is clear: the Duchess remains a lightning rod. Every product launch, interview quote and television mention becomes instant fodder.
