Meghan Markle's latest lifestyle venture, As Ever, has come under fire on the iconic BBC satire show Have I Got News for You, with panelists openly mocking her brand and Netflix series, With Love, Meghan.

During the episode, veteran journalist Ian Hislop took aim at the Duchess of Sussex's now sold-out raspberry jam, sarcastically joking: "It has immediately sold out, which I thought was good… unless there’s only two jars."

Hislop also poked fun at Meghan’s suggestion that customers repurpose the jam jars, quipping: “It would also make a lovely holder for writs from charities that your husband has been involved in.”

Comedian Phil Wang chimed in too, describing Meghan’s bee-keeping scene on With Love, Meghan as deeply unconvincing.

“She’s like, ‘I love coming out and getting in touch with nature,’ but you could see she was about to throw up.”

What's included in Meghan's first As Ever drop?

As Ever's debut collection includes everything from raspberry jam and wildflower honey to crepe mix and flower sprinkles — all wrapped in Meghan’s signature Montecito-chic aesthetic.

Here’s a peek at the price tags: Raspberry spread (with keepsake packaging): $14; Wildflower honey with honeycomb: $28; Flower sprinkles: $15.

The brand’s focus is “elevated, everyday living” — think hostessing, cooking, and cozy-chic vibes for the curated kitchen shelf.
