Meghan Markle’s jam and flower sprinkles are finally here — and so is her inauthenticity
Dude, it’s just a jar of jam.
Pardon — fruit spread, as Meghan Markle is now forced by the FDA to call it.
But the Duchess of Sussex, who debuted her line of nine As Ever products on Wednesday morning, believes she is selling a magical portal to Montecito, where she lives in a $14 million property.
That $14 raspberry concoction is “presented in keepsake packaging that you can repurpose to tuck away love notes or special treasures, and to remember this pivotal moment with me. Think of it as our time capsule,” Markle wrote in her newsletter.
Not, as you might think on first glance, an overpriced, factory-produced jar of fruit spread plus the “keepsake” box it came in. (The perfect place to hide our mounting bills.)
Many brands have boxes that can be repurposed. It’s understood — rather than touted as an added value, or a sentimental one at that. But Markle is living on a higher plane, and her lil’ pearls of wisdom are helping us slobs understand how the other half lives: They recycle jars. (Meghan suggests putting pencils or flowers in empty As Ever containers.)
It reminds me of the scene........
