\n

Meghan Markle<\/a> is no stranger to the predictable cycle – the 44-year-old launches something, the backlash begins and within hours the world has decided that it’s either out of touch or calculated. Rarely is there anything in between.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Her latest venture is a candle collection inspired by her two children, six-year-old Prince Archie and four-year-old Princess Lilibet, is the latest target. Whilst some Sussex fans have seen the collection as sweet, especially as the release is for US Mother’s Day, trolls have twisted the motive – once again.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Celebrity brands are often built on personal narratives – and launching something that is inspired by their children is nothing new.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

When other public figures, such as Jessica Alba’s The Honest Company, draw on motherhood and family life as inspiration, they’re praised; when Meghan does it, it is dismissed, dissected and picked apart. The double standards are difficult to ignore.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It is important to recognise that not all criticism is unwarranted. Like any public figure, Meghan invites feedback – with this particularly true when leaning into aspects of her personal life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In my opinion, the candles, which pay homage to Archie and Lilibet’s birthdates, are nothing more than a sweet way to incorporate her children into her brand.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Meghan has previously expressed major concern for their safety, but simply using a candle is hardly a breach of Archie and Lilibet’s privacy and is just a nod to her own children.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Meghan’s brand, like any brand in the public domain, should not be beyond criticism.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But if a candle inspired by her children is enough to spark outrage, then perhaps the issue isn’t actually Meghan after all. The reaction is.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
