Meghan Markle is infusing her own personal touch into her new project with American Riviera Orchard and an upcoming Netflix series.
According to a source in the latest issue of We, the line reflects Meghan's true self. The Duchess of Sussex is known for her love of cooking and gardening, making this venture a perfect fit for her passions.
Meghan, 42, applied for trademarks in March for a range of home goods such as tableware, small kitchen appliances, linens, gardening gear, jarred food products, home decor, and more. She has plans to introduce multiple products, but she won't launch everything at once.
According to an insider, Meghan is not planning to release a large number of products simultaneously. Instead, she will focus on introducing more categories related to food and entertaining to coincide with her upcoming Netflix show, which has already begun filming.
Meghan's new Netflix partnership details are being kept secret, but Us magazine has revealed that her husband, Prince Harry, will not be part of it. The Daily Mail previously mentioned that Meghan's cooking show will not be filmed at their Montecito home. However, the couple will be seen together on screen in Harry's upcoming series about polo.
Even though Harry, 39, won't be participating in Meghan's lifestyle-themed show, she will have some of her well-known friends make guest appearances.
