Commentator Insists Meghan Markle Made a Crucial Error With Her Brand When She Underestimated Kate

3 months ago

<p id=”par-1_28″>Since stepping down as working royals, Prince Harry and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/meghan-markle/?swcfpc=1″>Meghan Markle</a> have been trying to find their footing in Hollywood, but it hasn’t been easy for them. </p>

<p id=”par-2_77″>After leaving their royal roles in 2020, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex signed a lucrative deal with Spotify. Meghan’s <em>Archetypes</em> podcast lasted one season before <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/spotify-boss-points-unhappy-listeners-reason-meghan-markles-podcast-failed.html/”>it was canceled</a> and the company ended its partnership with the pair. The prince and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/meghan-markle-getting-residual-checks-suits-surprise-streaming-success.html/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>former <em>Suits</em> star</a> also inked a multi-million deal with Netflix, but aside from <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/4-claims-in-prince-harry-meghan-markles-netflix-docuseries-debunked.html/”>their docuseries <em>Harry & Meghan</em></a>, they have not produced anything that has even come close to cracking the streaming platform’s Top 20. </p>

<p id=”par-3_56″>Now, Meghan has decided to launch a lifestyle brand. However, after several months, fans are still waiting for more information on what products she will be selling and when they can be purchased. She gave a preview of three products but, as a commentator has pointed out, made a huge error with her soft launch. </p>

<p id=”par-4_80″>Nana Akua discussed Meghan’s American Riviera Orchard brand during an episode of <a href=”https://www.gbnews.com/royal/meghan-markle-king-charles-jam-brand-royal-latest” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>GB News</a> and explained that the major problem with it is <em>when</em> the duchess decided to do her soft launches as it was a crucial time for King Charles and her sister-in-law, the Princess of Wales (<a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/dont-be-fooled-this-is-what-kate-middleton-was-really-like-in-school.html/”>formerly known as Kate Middleton</a>). The broadcaster noted that the announcement for Meghan’s brand was made shortly after King Charles revealed his cancer diagnosis and the same month Kate revealed hers. </p>

<p id=”par-5_36″>Akua also pointed out that the Duchess of Sussex made another mistake unveiling a new jam flavor and dog biscuits when the monarch’s birthday celebrations were taking place and the princess was making an appearance. </p>

<p id=”par-6_30″>“Meghan launched them during Trooping the Colour,” Akua said. “And she launched the other ones when we had the diagnosis of cancer and things like that. People don’t like that.”</p>

<p id=”par-7_39″>Other commentators agreed with Akua about the bizarre timing of Meghan’s launch and blasted her for trying to get her name in the headlines the same day Kate made her first public appearance since announcing her cancer diagnosis. </p>

<p id=”par-8_92″><em>To Di for Daily</em> podcast host Kinsey Schofield told <a href=”https://youtu.be/LXtsRaddRGg” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Talk TV</a> that a lot of people <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/royal-commentator-says-meghan-markle-planning-something-big-overshadow-king-charles-trooping-colour-birthday-parade.html/?swcfpc=1″>“predicted” such a move by Meghan</a> saying: “She’s extended the brand. We’ve gone on to raspberry [jam] and dog biscuits. And this of course just hours before all eyes are on Trooping the Colour … A lot of us predicted this: how are Harry and Meghan going to try and disrupt Trooping the Colour, how are they going to try and distract from the royal family looking strong, powerful, and influential and they did it with dog biscuits.”</p>

<p id=”par-9_67″>Royal expert and public relations consultant Richard Fitzwilliams said he was almost in disbelief that Meghan tried to steal the headlines away from Trooping and Kate’s return with her products telling <a href=”https://www.thesun.co.uk/royals/28547330/meghan-markle-business-mistake-trooping-the-colour/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>The Sun</a>: “The idea that they would do something on the day of Trooping the Colour. I mean, it’s pretty silly. I mean, it is a clash of a sort. What was done was just silly. </p>

<p id=”par-10_63″>“What’s so odd is that she did anything on the day of Trooping the Colour at all, it doesn’t make any sense … The label on the jar said two of two, if she’s only going to send two jars out, what on earth is the point? … I don’t think it’s been thought out. This makes no public relations sense. It’s ridiculous.”</p>
