It's ARO Official: As of June 24th 2025, The Department of the Treasury approved Kunde Family Winery, Adair Kunde, LLC of Kenwood, CA to label their Dessert, Port, Sherry (Cooking) Wines "AS EVER"
Another Rip Off is her BRAND: Private Label Manufacturing/badge engineering is the most Rachel Meghan Markle Sussex thing, EVER! Consumers pay for the badge (label) not the contents.
We could not Make This Up: The irony of Rachel Meghan Markle Sussex autographing her name on the re-packaging that endorses her own fakery is lost on no one!!-GRITS
Private Label Manufacturing: Bravo Twitter Sleuth kathy202424 who unearthed the "private" label applicaton for Kunde Family Wine sold by As ever. It was approved this week, June 24th 2025.
Wine Appellation is Napa Valley but Kunde Family Winery (Adair Family Wines) is Sonoma Valley
Kunde Family Winery: "Set on 1,850 acres and farmed by the same family for five generations, Kunde Family Winery includes wine caves, outdoor waterside patios, and a mountaintop tasting and tour at 1,400 feet above the valley. The Sonoma Valley encompasses Sonoma County’s widest range of wine grapes, the most dramatic contrasts of terrain, and the longest history of any wine-growing region in Sonoma County. The birthplace of California’s commercial wine industry in the 1850s, Sonoma Valley didn’t win official American Viticulture Area status (AVA or appellation) until 1981. It comprises more than 14,000 acres of vineyards and is home to more than 80 wineries and tasting rooms."
Jay Adair Buys B.R. Cohn, Kunde and Viansa Wineries in Sonoma County October 2, 2024 By Virginie Boone "Late last month, a bankruptcy court approved the sale of all Vintage Wine Estates assets, including several physical wineries and brands in Sonoma County. Based in Santa Rosa, Vintage Wine Estates (VWE) filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on July 24, with over $400 million in liabilities. Copart Executive Chairman Aaron Jayson “Jay” Adair paid $85 million for B.R. Cohn, Kunde and Viansa in Sonoma Valley and Carneros, a sum that also included Clos Pegase and Girard wineries in the Napa Valley. Bill Foley’s Foley Family Wines acquired many other VWE assets, including Sonoma Coast Vineyards, which has a tasting room in Bodega Bay."

I have always believed that the Royal Family kicked the Harkles out of The Firm. They wanted to stay in…on their terms, and The Queen (bless her soul) said that caving to their demands was a HARD NO!
NO ONE WANTED TO TRAP YOU HARRY.
While the cat’s away the mice will play…and Meggy Mouse did not disappoint! The delusional deceitful duchess left Archificial and Invisabet back in California while she (private) jetted off to NYC (the traumatic site of her catastrophic car chase) for her predictable PR photo shoot. Props to her that it’s not a parking lot this time 👏🏼
YOU DO NOT NEED A 4 CAR MOTORCADE FOR A ONE+ BLOCK DRIVE TO A THEATRE. No one cares about you. You could walk there with a sign saying who you are and no one would care. No one cares.
BUSTED!! As Meghan Markle rolls out new jars of jam and honey, a new report reveals who’s actually making these products — it’s not her. The news that a Netflix team may be sourcing the ingredients or directing a factory to make Meghan’s jam or her brand’s $18 honey tends to erode any sense of authenticity...
As Meghan Markle rolls out new jars of jam and honey, a new report reveals who’s actually making these products — it’s not her.
Plagiarist: "The Art of the Handwritten Note" is by author Margaret Shepherd NOT Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex County
The Art of the Handwritten Note: "Corresponding on paper let's you elevate a simple pleasure into an artform." -Margaret Shepherd 2002
Plagiarism has become an artform for Meghan Markle Duchess of Sussex County who frequently quotes Margaret Shepherd (famed author and calligrapher) without crediting her book or work.
Photos from my own copy of The Art of The Handwritten Note (published by Shepherd in 2002):
Pretentiousness
MM obviously practiced her hand lettering and penmanship for this series because it looks much more polished and presentable. She really thinks her handwriting is the definition of "classy." Perhaps as a child it provided her with immediate praise that fed her narcissism. No thanks to Thomas Markle who contracted with Nickelodeon to film her writing the dish soap letter from hell.
Harry has to explain to the people of Sussex why it's taking such a long time for his wife to sign her name.🤪
"That's How I Paid My Bills"
She claims to have paid her bills by working as a "freelance calligrapher." Paula Patton did not hire Meghan Markle to address her wedding invitations, she hired Paper Source Retail Stores.
MEgain worked as a retail associate for Paper Source where they sell stationary, gift wrap, party supplies, etc. The associates are trained to teach customers how to use their products. Sometimes they offer mini workshops throughout the year: bookbinding as a craft, gift wrapping, hand lettering, and of course some stores will also address your invitations.
"Our kids have REAL sets" she bragged 🙄
What kind of parent recommends that toddlers play with REAL trowels in the backseat of the car as a "distraction" during the ride home from a toddler's birthday party?🏨🏥🚑 Oh and no candy in those bags, just a manuka honey stick gifted from a person who said she doesn't even like honey. 🤪
Moma Knows Best
Meghan Markle's handwriting is "faux calligraphy" with doodles & flourishes. Lady C described it as "pretension gone riot." In this episode she's obviously clapping back at her critics by revealing to the world she made an A- in handwriting due to "those little swirls."
"I'll take the minus for a bit of character."
Right there she's explained to us that it's her way or the highway. She knows what's required but chooses not to meet those expectations because in her narcissist mind, she actually knows best.
Soho House Tradwife plays Hostess
In the context of this lifestyle series, Lady C made some excellent points about how an experienced hostess doesn't have the time to spend on tasks that should be assigned to the hired help. When I reviewed the images from her luncheon, it was obvious that the guests didn't enjoy her food. Perhaps in part because the hostess covered up the table in those ridiculous flowers instead of creating SPACE for people to actually sit down at the table to eat their meals.
Revisionist History
This "SERIES" was another Solo Meghan attempt at an image make over and infomercial. With each new man, her adult life seems to be a transactional stepping stone of revisionist history. In the case of the Spare, Harry offered her his name, titles, family, country, wealth to erase her Soho House yachting lifestyle and launch her into global stardom. In exchange the Spare would receive his freedom from what he perceived as a trapped future and the rigors of royal service. The Spare made a deal with the devil, but that is a topic for another time.
Another January 2026 Jam Scam Update: Markle claims her Jam Scam made MILLIONS of Dollars in PROFIT!!
If the Harkles made $25-$35 million through this jam scam "small business" they certainly don't need UK tax payer funded security from a country where they don't work or pay taxes. What this couple needs is an AUDIT from the IRS: The Internal Revenue Service-GG
MegaLiar cannot add, subtract multiply or divide and neither can Jack Royston (Newsweek), Griffiths, and all the other mouthpieces. One thing they can all do is print lies.
"Suddenly the conversation goes from a few thousand jars and lids to we need to do a purchase order of a million. And that's a huge jump in just a few months of starting a business. "-Meghan Markle to Bloomberg
Below is a lengthy case study by a SMM Anon, along with brief observations by Anons, and the link to Think Beautiful's vlog where she debunks the millions in revenue lies.
Charlotte Griffiths was talking about Meghans jam on GB News this morning. Says she has made $27m selling jam, so she’s had the last laugh on all of us. The clever Sinners who first discovered the actual sales, (sorry I forget your names,) were described as “eagle Royal fans”
If you actually moved that much product, that is a huge accomplishment for any business. You're not gonna be putting that out in unnamed sources, that's something you brag about publicly as a business.
She didn't really do it.
She's so full of crap. If her items were flying off the shelves, then why would she tell the magazine 'Fast Company' that she was going to "take a step back and analyze the data".
As a business owner, if my products sold out as quickly as she alleged hers did, there is no way in hell I'd take a step back from it. She was only less than two months in at that point, if I'm not mistaken. As never was never a serious undertaking for her...but is anything?
As ever Instagram has less than 1M followers.
If 1M jars had been sold there would have been reports from the CDC about food borne illness.
If she’s really sold one million jars of shit, she would’ve told us about it on every podcast, every interview, everywhere she’s been inserting herself, that she’s sold one million jars of shit. Instead, she tried to convince us that failure is not an option and that brushing her teeth is part of her daily routine lol
If the numbers were impressive, Meghan would have published them long ago.
Smuckers (from their website) produces 750K jars a day which is approximately 273 million jars of jam per year. Globally, across all flavors, jar sizes and product lines, including corporate and hospitality.
Ordering jars, is not the same as paying for them or even selling them. An online shopify business would not sell 1million jars without serious logistics and markets. She only has direct to consumer, no trade, no contracts, doesnt export and it's only been in business a few months with flaky availability. Highgrove turns over GBP6M/year for all their products.
You would expect to see more spikes for searches to As Ever website if she’s sold that volume bc you can only purchase it there. There’s a bump Nov/early Dec, then hit rock bottom:
SMM Anon (Lark34) has the December screenshot showing 1684 jars of raspberry spread available on December 4th. Not the holiday trio boxes but single jars of $12 spread
Part 1 of Case Study by SMM Anon strangealienworld
One Million Jars of An Untrue Claim
"I initally posted this on a thread started by punchbag re a DM article on a Sussex insider's claim stating to have sold 1M jars of raspberry spread. It annoyed me that a figure of 1M was being used or bantered as a sales number. I know everyone doesn't believe it, but I thought it was important to show how this claim was factually untrue." Here it goes:
The ONLY time Meghan ever mentioned the magic 1 million number was in the 26 Aug Bloomberg/Emily Chang interview. Back then she told Emily that she ORDERED - not sold but ORDERED - 1million jars based on the scarcity sales tactic she used sold-out-within-an-hour sales data she received for As ever's April 2 initial launch of her raspberry spread. And note she NEVER EVER said raspberry spread jars; she only mentioned the word "jars". With hindsight, knowing what we now know, I think she was being very very deliberate with that choice of word and sentence phrasing. She knew she wasn't talking about raspberry jars of spread/jam. But because that 1million figure was mentioned within the discussion of the raspberry spread she and Emily were having, everyone (including myself) would have assumed at the time that the "1 million jars" was referring to a re-order of 1M jars of raspberry spread/jam. It wasn't, and now I know why.
The same day the interview dropped (26 Aug), she also launched her Orange Marmalade spread. We also know the Bloomberg interview was recorded before Netflix announced H&M's first-look deal on 11 Aug, ending their $100M deal. Emily Chang added a voice footnote to that point, saying that because the interview took place before Netflix made the announcement, she was unable to put the issue to Meghan at the time. Now, despite selling out of her seemingly popular raspberry spread, Meghan also told Fast Company business magazine in a previous interview published on May 27 that she wouldn't restock her raspberry spread or launch any new products until early 2026. It was about this time that a lot of questions were circulating about why she wasn't re-stocking her spread if it sold so quickly and so well. She even said on her own podcast around the same month (May) that she would be taking a "step back" to assess the business. Again, folks were kind of surprised by this given the supposed success of her raspberry spread.
By June 4, however, she had changed her mind, teasing the world with a "new product" launch. On June 20, she launched a couple of new products: Aprico spread and Orange Blossom honey. What is absolutely a fact is that, other than the months of April/May, her RASPBERRY spread remained out-of-stock all through the rest of 2025. She never restocked it after its apparent popularity in April, and it remains out- of-stock till this day. She never restocked it for the Thanksgiving or Christmas seasons. The only spreads she stocked up on were Apricot (launched 20 June), Orange Marmalade (launched 26 Aug) and Strawberry (re)introduced 25 Oct, a holdover idea from ARO), all of which she then sold as a Signature Fruit Spread Collection Box in 25 Oct ready for Thankgiving and Christmas. The only other additional new non-spread products she launched on 20 June and 28 Oct were Orange Blossom Honey and Sage Honey respectively.
So, it is factually impossible and untrue that she ever sold 1million raspberry spreads/jams at any time because she only ever stocked it for at most TWO months (April & May) in the whole of 2025. If she had sold that many so soon after launching, heck, yeah, she would have made a ginormous song and dance about it! And to be honest/fair, who wouldn't as a new start-up? 1 million jars of bog standard raspberry spread sold within two months of launching a brand new business, not to mention the hiccups of rebranding it with a new name, having abandoned its old trademark of ARO? In that case, Meredith Maines missed a wide open goal here!
No, the only 1 million figure she's ever mentioned publicly was the amount of "jars" she told Chang she ORDERED (i.e, not sold, never sold) - a purchase order that likely took place around June when she suddenly changed her mind about "stepping back" her business. Because the ONLY "jar" products to have been in stock and on the website at the time of the Chang interviewed her were the Apricot and Orange Marmalade spreads. When the interview landed on 26 Aug, the Orange Blossom honey was launched on the website. So even if according to her latest claim she had sold 1,000,000 jars of raspberry spread, Meghan would've known this by the time Emily had asked her about her sales.
As for the raspberry spread, I reckon something happened to that product line after its initial launch. Either the production costs were too expensive to justify a large reorder, or it was only ever meant to be a one-off limited product to use as an initial launch and to drum up PR buzz (which it did). Or both. So when she spoke of "stepping back" or not launching new products until 2026, I think she was re-adjusting what products she could afford to order and sell, with the Apricot, Orange and Strawberry lines being the cheapest options - and from which she supposedly ordered a total of 1 million jars. Allegedly. In the two months (April and May) that she didn't re-stock on the supposedly popular raspberry spread - 1 million sold jars, according to her - she had to explain why. Hence, the botched up PR about stepping back/no new products until 2026 and the months and months of not re-stocking her apparently extremely well sold raspberry spread she claims to have shifted 1million units. I guess she's got $9-14M sitting in her bank account waiting for raspberry spread global dominion, I dunno.
Now if she did order 1 million jars in June (or sometime between June and July), it means she overstocked on the three individual spreads. 1 million jars of raspberry spread in two months, and to claim to Bloomberg's Emily Chang in late July/early Aug that she ORDERED 1 million "jars". Either both of those claims are untrue, or she ordered 1 million items of product including candles, mulling kits, flower spinkles, honeys, spreads, wines, crepes and cookies for her website. Either way, none of what she has said, done or now is claiming makes any sense. It never ever does.
No wonder Meredith Maines resigned. In the end, this whole mess likely boils down to one issue: money or the lack thereof.

🚨 The numbers simply do not add up
🚨 A basic competitor analysis makes this claim completely inconceivable
In this video, I break down:
• How the $36M figure was really calculated
• The missing step even a school-aged child could calculate
• Why As Ever simply CANNIOT compete in the lifestyle of "jam" market
• And why Meghan’s PR spin insults anyone with a calculator

She is LAZY. This is just another Tig Talk where she "invites" her targets (people she intends to use & abuse) to answer electronic questions for an "interview." It's all transactional and all about learning to mimic the behavior of successful "business" people. It's about what they can do for her. She won't go to business school, but she'll attach herself (like a barnacle) to those who might have actually done the required HARD work. The 2 makeup ladies (kern+victoria), Daniel's friends: Vicky the Tatcha skincare founder+Jessica Alba (Honest Co), Serena, Kerry Washington, maybe Noprah, the pilates friend, Nonoo, & the "founder" participants from her megflop.
During the netflix megflop MM told the bee keeper she doesn't like honey bc it's too sweet
The (free) Press Boxes distributed to influencers DO NOT include Honey🤔
The (free) Press Boxes include all products EXCEPT honey
Zero online influencers or everyday customers were able to place "orders" for Honey
Meghan's customer letter explained to her squad that the honey is unavailable due to "overselling"
Although no one has yet identified the origin of the "berries" the jam, preserves, spread was available to order and it looks as bad as her promo photos which I actually thought were a bloody mess. 😳🤢🤮
Highgrove
The Highgrove website has several varieties available to order in time for Easter. I continue to marvel at her brass neck attempts to rip off her in-laws, first by grifting off the Flamingo Estate founder as a potential investor. Now through ARO/AE she is selling processed "food" as a cheap copy of both the authentic Highgrove & Flamingo brands.

Flamingo Estate
She would have loved rubbing Famingo Estate in the faces of the BRF. "See, I have my own Highgrove Estate and it's for CELEBRITIES like me!!!"
Take 60sec to hear this clip of The Flamingo Estate Founder describe the reason their estate Honey sells out during the 1st week available to order. Note: His parents are farmers & bee keepers. He is also a lifelong bee keeper who suits up to help his bee keeper with the job.
She literally stole his truly authentic BRAND & repackaged it into a processed, sugary knockoff which is authentic to her own BRAND----same as ever: over processed, cheap, inauthentic, unhealthy, Junk NOT Joy.
She just swapped out his "PLEASURE" with what she is selling as "JOY" and Montecito Magic. The Flamingo Estate looks too creepy for my taste (plus I won't go near ANYTHING perverts Chrissy Teigen & husband John Roger Stephens recommend), but his gardens, his family background as farmers/bee keepers, his advocacy for local farmers & farming are all authentic & ADMIRABLE.

It just dawned on me that Harry expects government bailouts from both the British and the American taxpayers.
He dumped millions of dollars into their Montecito Money Pit, then he gambled away millions to "bootsrap" his wife's jam scam.
Yes, I know we knew this---- I just didn't expect her to actually order millions of dollars worth of jam scam merchandise BEFORE the 2 brick & mortar Netflix stores were up and running. MegaFraud was lying to the world (aka MANIFESTING) that her merchandise would be sold by Netflix. Keep in mind that this is Merchandise that wasn't even ready in time to feature it in her failed series, which does business under a completely different name. 🤡
NOprah's Favorite Things couldn't sell her spreads. Now it's up to Tyler Perry, Victoria Jackson and QVC Jamie to begin placing bulk orders for community soup kitchens.
