<\/p>\n

\n

The limited-edition product<\/a> was made in collaboration with a New Forest-based workshop and features a gold inscription of “Fell Asleep Here” in Meghan’s handwriting. However, fans were not impressed that the Duchess did not come up with her own message<\/a> for the bookmark and instead used the other company’s.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

One user wrote on X: \u201cMeghan couldn’t even come up with a quote herself; she had to borrow from theirs and just write it in her fancy cursive. If that’s not a microcosm of Meghan’s entire post-Megxit career, I don’t know what is.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Another account blasted: \u201cUtterly unsurprising that she plagiarised a flipping bookmark.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A third person commented: \u201cWOW! Secondhand embarrassment\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A final one said: \u201cWhy does she think her scrawl is what people want? I just don’t get it. Her handwriting is not pretty or elegant. & what does a bookmark have to do with As ever?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But others defended the Duchess and said the message was the same as she had partnered with the company.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

One user wrote: \u201cWell, it was a collab so if you\u2019re so butthurt, call them and find out how many were created. But, limited edition means limited. It was designed to create a buzz for the small business in the UK.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A second one added: \u201cShe PARTNERED them. Idiots.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A third one said, \u201cYou guys are seething with jealousy; meanwhile, Meghan is focused.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The bookmark, which sold out in minutes after it launched<\/a> on Tuesday, is said to be made using “sustainably sourced leather” and is described as “a keepsake designed for those who linger, pause and return”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The product description states: “Crafted from supple black leather and finished with gold lettering written in Meghan’s handwriting, it rests neatly between pages to mark exactly where you left off.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“This limited-edition piece was made to last – a small, thoughtful detail meant to stay with you for years.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The bookmark was made in collaboration with Sbri, which is described as “a small UK-based female-owned workshop specialising in handcrafted, made-to-order keepsakes” on a newsletter by As Ever.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Also released on Tuesday was “A Moment To Unwind Set”, costing 64 dollars (\u00a347.50) and made up of the bookmark, sage honey with honeycomb and herbal peppermint tea.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The set is described on the company’s website as a “thoughtfully curated trio designed for quiet moments at home”. The website said the product is “Meghan’s take on starting the new year out right” under a section titled “why you’ll love it”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
