That phrase would normally leave Buckingham Palace officials in sweats, panicking about what new mud she could be slinging on their golden-gilded wrought iron gates.<\/p>\n<p>But in this case, revenge is a dish best served as cold as gazpacho, as she&#8217;s writing a cookbook.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Last week, we heard she leveraged her royal connections and newfound fame to sell nearly one million jars of jam and wants to launch her lifestyle business globally.<\/p>\n<p>The jam alone is thought to have raked in \u00a326.7m in sales. A source said: &#8220;I think it\u2019s fair to say business isn\u2019t just successful, it\u2019s flying off the shelf.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Now it\u2019s a cookbook. The culinary tome&#8217;s tipped to include recipes for her &#8216;single skillet spaghetti&#8217; and &#8216;rainbow-themed fruit salad&#8217;, as well as her beloved jams and marmalade.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Tips and tricks&#8217; about hosting at home, which formed a major part of her <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/netflix\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|AutoLink\">Netflix<\/a> TV series, are also expected.<\/p>\n<p>The book, reportedly pencilled in for the spring, is likely to coincide with an expansion of her As Ever brand into a wider range of non-food products, such as candles.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>When she moved to the UK, she wrote the foreword for Together: Our Community Cookbook in the wake of the Grenfell fire disaster in London in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>She has also written a children&#8217;s book, The Bench. We all needed a good sit-down after reading that.<\/p>\n<p>It is almost as if Harry and Meghan have been given a deadline to make a billion dollars and nothing will stop their march for moolah, battle for the big bucks and desire for dough.<\/p>\n<p>I mean, how much loot do they need? Are they saving up to buy an island with a hollowed-out volcano, a mini-rail and a space rocket to take over the world?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s clear she is still bitter over how her royal fairytale has panned out, her feelings of being forced into Megxit.<\/p>\n<p>Her TV interviews show a woman angry at perceived slights or insults suffered at the hands of more senior royals, and frustrated and exhausted by royal restrictions on what a &#8216;working royal&#8217; meant.<\/p>\n<p>Yet she has not given an inch either. She appeared to revel in setting a match to the reputation of King Charles, Camilla, William and Catherine.<\/p>\n<p>Now she is building a business empire, perhaps in time to rival the Royal Family&#8217;s own wealth.<\/p>\n<p>Her cookbook could boast recipes for &#8216;sour grapes&#8217; and &#8216;chips on the shoulder&#8217; &#8211; but one dish missing will be &#8216;humble pie&#8217;.<\/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>Some aspects of life seem relentless &#8211; like the sands of time, seasons, tides and taxes.
