If the past few weeks have proved anything, it’s that Meghan Markle can’t so much as 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 she claims is hers — which isn’t her house — making jam and all sorts of things. She’s been trying to sell it, but it turns out nobody wants to buy the jam, and there are massive reserves of it at Netflix HQ, where they’re 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 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 sharpens the narrative even more is that when As Ever launched in April 2025, the initial collection — including raspberry jam and wildflower honey — reportedly sold out within an hour. Headlines at the time boasted about products “flying off the shelves.” Now, critics argue the momentum hasn’t lasted.
Reality‑TV shade in Beverly Hills
As if that weren’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 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 referenced Meghan’s now‑famous 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.” Prince Harry later defended her in 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 TV, Meghan has faced a steady wave of public ribbing.
Whether the reports about her brand point to a real sales slump or just the usual swirl of royal‑adjacent drama, one thing is certain: the Duchess remains a lightning rod. Every product launch, interview quote, and TV mention becomes instant fodder.
