The Duchess of Sussex has a new brand out to coincide with her unnamed Netflix lifestyle show but copyright issues have halted progress.
Meghan Markle has suffered a pushback in her plans to unveil her new lifestyle brand due to copyright issues which has caused Netlix to push back a TV show of the same nature.
The Duchess of Sussex has a new line called American Riviera Orchard which features food and wellness products but has struggled to fully claim the name due to copyright issues.
The Suits actress has so far sent out samples of items in the line, including a jam, to 50 influencers and celebrities to share the product with their followers.
A Netflix show which explores home, garden, and general lifestyle content was set to compound the brand but the streaming giant is reported to have pushed the release to mid 2025.
The US Patents and Trademarks Office of various issues is reported to have notified the Sussex lawyers that issues arose from various items in the brand including incorrect classification of yoga blankets, picnic baskets and recipe books.
It could cost Meghan to now register trademarks and wait further to settle the copyright issues, which could further delay the Netflix show.
Royal commentator Tom Quinn thinks Prince Harry is in no position to help Meghan with her business venture.
Mr Quinn told The Mirror: “Harry has never had any real idea about becoming an entrepreneur or a businessman in his own right.”
The Netflix show has been moved to mid 2025
“He is trained from birth to do one thing only – to be a royal, and he has thrown that away.
“His one hundred per cent support for his wife and her business ventures has never wavered – but it hasn’t been enough to make a success of her company.
“Meghan is proof that self-belief won’t always guarantee success. It won’t always make you a great entrepreneur and businesswoman.”
The show, which is yet to receive a title or air date, will “celebrate the joys of cooking, gardening, entertaining, and friendship” and is part of Meghan and Harry’s $100million Netflix deal.
