Meghan Markle's new lifestyle brand could make a unique name for itself if it took inspiration from her husband
Prince Harry , according to one commentator. The
Duchess of Sussex quietly launched her new lifestyle brand,
American Riviera Orchard, earlier this month and has already gained more than 570,000 followers. American Riviera Orchard is thought to be a lifestyle and cookery brand that will tie in with a new show on
Netflix . Meghan's brand, which has only been launched with the
Instagram handle and a soft focus grainy video, is expected to focus on homewares, as well as makeup and skincare. It was suggested Meghan could rake in more than six figures in sales in the first weeks of launch, but it has not been revealed when the products will go on sale. However, if Meghan wants to make her brand a success and compete with lifestyle gurus like Gwyneth Paltrow, it's thought she should consider some unorthodox products to grab attention.

Meghan Markle must unveil two things for American Riviera Orchard's success, says expert It's been suggested that Meghan could be 'inspired' by Prince Harry's admissions in his autobiography 'Spare' Guardian columnist Arwa Mahdwi has suggested that Meghan should consider a unique product including one that could be 'inspired' by her husband's admissions in his 2023 autobiography. Mahdwi wrote: "I suggest Meghan pull a Paltrow and ensure the products she sells are just a little bit out-there. I'm not sure Goop would have been quite so successful had it not been for headline-generating offerings such as vampire repellent and vagina candles. Paltrow has the vagina market covered, but considering Harry's propensity for talking about his nether regions, Meghan could always launch cream for frostbitten todgers." In Prince Harry's autobiography 'Spare', which was released in 2023, the
Duke of Sussex jokes about standing through his brother Prince William's wedding to Kate Markle as Harry suffered with a frostbitten penis following an arctic trek. American Riviera Orchard hasn't yet confirmed what it will retail, yet it's expected that the brand will stock home decor items such as marmalades, jams, and other lifestyle products including dog shampoo and cosmetics according to trademark documents that have been launched. A source previously shared with People magazine that ARO will show off what the Duchess loves most, like "family, cooking, entertaining and home decor". They said: "This is something she's been wanting to do for a while. She is excited to share her style and things that she loves." Join the Mirror's SMS news service to get the biggest
