However, many of the Duchess\u2019s endeavours <a target=\"_blank\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/celebrity-news\/2151983\/meghan-markle-disappointing-celebrity-toronto-star\" target=\"_blank\">were mostly savaged by critics online<\/a>, while her Netflix and podcast shows have not been renewed for a new season yet.<\/p>\n<p>Now, a royal expert has weighed in on the Duchess\u2019s previous year and <a target=\"_blank\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/news\/royal\/2155567\/meghan-markle-cookbook-popularity-latest\" target=\"_blank\">issued a scathing verdict<\/a> about what\u2019s to come.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Lee Cohen, a US-based columnist\/royal and foreign policy commentator, told the Daily Express: \u201cMy take is that <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/meghan-markle\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|AutoLink\">Meghan Markle<\/a>\u2019s post-royal career is no longer a journey. It\u2019s a loop.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA doom loop, it seems Launch. Hype. Disappointment. Rebrand. Repeat.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said the Duchess\u2019s efforts to establish herself as an entrepreneur have become \u201cexhausting\u201d to the public and added that 2026 will not be met with any surprises.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Cohen explained: \u201cBy 2026, the pattern isn\u2019t just familiar \u2014 it\u2019s exhausting. Her revolving door of staff will tell us, again, that this project is the real one. They will insist, again, that critics \u2018don\u2019t get it\u2019. And once more, the audience will quietly drift away.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, 2026 in a nutshell? More launches. More breathless announcements. More delusional insistence that breakout success is one pivot away.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\u201cBut zero breakthroughs. No relevance. Just diminishing returns and public exhaustion and alienation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It comes as a glitch on the As Ever website recently <a target=\"_blank\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/news\/royal\/2155043\/meghan-markle-as-ever-british-life\" target=\"_blank\">revealed the brand\u2019s plans to expand globally<\/a>, according to insiders.<\/p>\n<p>The glitch appeared to show the remaining products available for sale when a considerably larger number was added to the basket.<\/p>\n<p>While some people mocked the Duchess for the large number of stock left, a source claimed the numbers reveal the business\u2019s big next move.<\/p>\n<p>A source with inside knowledge of the business and close to As Ever told the Daily Express that the recent glitch just proved how successful As Ever has been as a brand, and that the Duchess managed to sell nearly 90% of her original stock.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.express.co.uk \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meghan Markle is allegedly stuck in a \u201cdoom loop\u201d after her various business endeavours have flopped, a royal commentator has claimed.
