Reports suggest that Meghan Markle sent her father-in-law, King Charles III, a gift box from her new lifestyle brand, As Ever, an alleged gesture to rebuild royal bridges via Yahoo.
The timing coincided with Charles and Camilla’s 20th anniversary and comes after the release of her hit Netflix show “With Love, Meghan.”
Meghan Markle’s April 2nd launch of her highly anticipated products sold out in under an hour. The launch coincided with planned seasonal drops and strong public interest despite pricing.
As per reports Meghan extending an olive branch to King Charles in a heartfelt and thoughtful way.
According to U.K. royal correspondent Neil Sean, who spoke to Fox News Digital, a trusted insider revealed that a “sample box of delights from As Ever has been delivered to Clarence House,” the monarch’s official London residence.
The package reportedly included a mix of “jams, honey, crêpe mix, and various assortments,” along with a handwritten note from the Duchess of Sussex herself.
The gesture reflects Meghan’s deep respect for her father-in-law, and royal commentators believe this act could be Meghan’s way of “building bridges with the royal family” since stepping back from royal duties alongside Prince Harry in 2020.
“I understand how she may not feel respected still, but tiny gestures like this are her way of showing compassion for what the king is going through and helping to rebuild bridges between Prince William, Prince Harry, and the king,” said royal analyst Ian Pelham Turner.
“Perhaps conciliatory gifts from the hostess with the mostess could shine,” he added.
British broadcaster and royal photographer Helena Chard noted to the news outlet that the timing of Meghan’s alleged gesture to the king couldn’t be more fitting, as Charles recently marked two decades of marriage to Queen Camilla.
“The curious of us wonder whether Meghan sent a [box] of her As Ever edibles to King Charles,” Chard said. “However, none of my royal sources have confirmed either way… Charles and Queen Camilla’s 20th wedding anniversary is the perfect time for Meghan to highlight her brand products to her royal connections. [And] King Charles loves top-quality food. He offers quality preserves through his Highgrove Estate and the royal household’s official store.”
Chard added that confirmation may only come if “senior royal aide, Sir Clive Alderton, records a gift from Meghan, a gift which is passed on to staff or a charity.”
