Meghan Markle's lifestyle brand

Meghan Markle's upcoming lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, has encountered trademark issues that may delay its launch. The US Patents and Trademarks Office identified several 'irregularities' in the trademark application, particularly with the classification of products like yoga blankets and recipe books, leading to an estimated cost of $11,382 for corrections. Despite the setback, Netflix is reportedly stepping in to manage the brand's commercial production and cover the associated costs. Meghan has teased potential products, including rosé wine and artisan jams, which have already been sent to influencers for promotion. The brand aims to reflect her personal lifestyle, and she remains enthusiastic about its potential. The simultaneous launch of a cooking show on Netflix is expected to coincide with the brand's debut, although a specific release date is still pending.
