As Ever

[Chuchoter]

Meghan has renamed her luxury lifestyle brand 'As Ever'.

'As Ever essentially means as it's always been, and if you've followed me since 2014 with The Tig, you know I've always loved cooking and crafting and gardening — this is what I do,' she said. '

You buy your fancy jam at the local market.

Yes, I was shouting at Kemi Badenoch on the news this morning. Nothing to do with her ethnicity.

Yup, the trad wife feminist won’t be washing dishes…but female domestic staff is perfectly fine. Being California, we also know the likely demographics too.

Bit hard on veteran broadcaster Neil Sean - every time he uses his catchphrase 'As ever', he'll be promoting the Meg.

I wouldn't fancy buying food stuff in a Netflix store, seems a bit bizarre.

I despise Putin too but I'll never meet him. Does this mean I can't dislike him now?
Btw, you could take your own advice and hide these threads too if you find them too awful. It really is that simple.

@ jeffgoldblum, I think she's going to be hit with a lawsuit for that logo

😂

Well that's me, and I have money to chuck around on that sort of thing. But I would not go to somewhere like a Netflix store full of tat to buy some generic factory jam with her name on it - or even the name of someone l particularly admire. If the product itself is just shitty factory jam, what's the point in spending $20+ on it. What little bit of MM's life is this giving me?

So if the house is stunning, but it's not hers, what bit of MM's authentic life are we getting from the house?

It's going to have to have a long shelf life ie full of preservatives. 🤮

Any Sussex Squad here?

Having just listened to The Rest is Entertainment talking about celebrity perfume and the vast sums you can make, I think Meghan should produce a fragrance. She needs to pick a demographic to aim it at but it could sell really well for her.

You'd think so @INeedAnotherName but they especially Meghan have plagiarised so many people at this point and nobody official has ever commented!!
Only us plebs! 🙄

Didn't Diana supposedly sign her letters 'As ever'?

I thought he proposed to her cooking a chicken?

Yes she did @IcedPurple !

If she isn’t into this, she should be.

Except that they were in the garden not cooking anything when she showed the (bizarrely) filmed proposal in the Netflix docusoap.

Then they showed that film of the proposal and it was outside with candles. So the engagement interview was...less than honest?

I don't know. I thought she was a disgrace so never took any interest in her.

Soooooo not interested in

for ever and ever

I have been fairly agnostic/not massively interested in M &H but now I’m starting to feel sorry for her. I suspect that she’s super-intelligent, possibly ND and struggling with her life. I think she knows what she wants to be but has no idea how to achieve it, no idea how to get people on board and limited patience for people without her drive.
I think she’s probably quite unhappy. She could have had the world at her feet had she embraced her Duchess role, but she’s so fixated on her idea that she can’t flex away from it.

Cross post! I think Mishal Hussain commented that she believed she was doing a genuine interview when Meghan claimed it was "curated" for the masses.

What has she done to her face and teeth, she looks strange. Also the problem is she makes so many announcements and launches that don't amount to anything it's kind of meaningless now.

I was staggered how much money it can generate. Plus people will by it if they like the name or the scent, they don't have to necessarily be fans of her.

I admire what Charles has done at Highgrove but no way would I spend what he charges on jam, even though the profits go to charity. I can get jam in Waitrose or Tesco.

She needs goods that have a large profit margin and which can appeal in a variety of ways. Jam no, perfume, yes.
