Meghan Markle could be launching a new “mega brand” as she “wants to become a billionaire,” a royal commentator has claimed.
The Duchess of Sussex has just announced a new Christmas range with her lifestyle brand, As Ever, which includes traditional Champagne-style sparkling wine, handcrafted candles, warming beverage kits, and curated gift selections.
The new products mark a significant expansion beyond the brand’s original preserves and honey products, which were launched earlier this year.
But Meghan, 44, doesn’t want to stop here as, according to royal commentator Emily Andrews, the mom-of-two has bigger business aspirations, hoping that she could join the likes of Kim Kardashian and Jeff Bezos in the billionaire club.
Speaking on The Meghan Effect: How She Shook Up the Royal Family – a documentary produced by British TV network, Channel 5 – Emily claimed, “I’ve been told by those close to Meghan that she wants to become a billionaire.”
She added, “To become a billionaire, she has to build her brand to be as big and successful as it possibly can. Jam is just the beginning.”
The comments come amid rumors that Meghan could be looking at launching a “mega brand” after she was invited as the “star guest” to a Los Angeles dinner arranged by multi-millionaire Emma Grede, who co-founded Kim’s hugely popular SKIMS range in 2019.
PR experts have claimed that the former Suits actress could be leaning onto Emma’s years of expertise to launch a new business venture.
According to Emily, if Meghan decides to pursue a business in the hospitality sector, she could “absolutely” become a billionaire.
However, some PR experts have claimed that other options for Meghan could also be couture or business.
Just days ago, Meghan posted two clips on Instagram which showed her applying lipstick, with the brand names obscured, which industry sources said could be a “tell-tale sign” that she may be thinking to create her own makeup range.
A source told The Mail on Sunday, “On her Instagram reel, the make-up lined up on her dressing table was unbranded or had the brand labels obscured, which felt deliberate.
“That’s a tell-tale sign Meghan has something in the pipeline. The fact she didn’t want to promote or reveal any other brand is a big clue that she’s gearing up to promote her own range eventually – it is a sign for industry insiders.”
Meghan and her husband, Prince Harry, have a combined estimated net worth of $60 million in 2025, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
As part of the new Christmas range, Meghan has launched a new candle inspired by the “ease and joy” of her wedding day.
Signature Candle No. 519, retailing for $64 and infused with Moroccan mint, cardamom, and tea leaves, seems to heavily reference her time within the royal family by promising to “evoke the freshness of a day in the English countryside,” based on a description from her website.
The product draws on the Duchess of Sussex’s recollections of her wedding day at St George’s Chapel, being “surrounded by love and laughter.” Meghan and Harry married in Windsor on May 19, 2018.
The description further states, “This signature candle is inspired by the ease and joy of a day that holds Meghan’s most cherished memories-her wedding day.”
Her latest launch signifies her initial venture into home décor with ceramic candles, while the introduction of mulling kits and festive bundles indicates a strategic shift towards holiday merchandise.
The release was perfectly timed with the Christmas shopping season, as the California-based brand continues to build on its early success from earlier this year.
