Meghan Markle’s new lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard has been the source of much speculation since it was announced earlier this month.

Meghan Markle will be selling a number of unusual items through her new brand American Riviera Orchard, including dog shampoo, chicken feed and yoga bolsters.

The Duchess of Sussex announced news of her new project earlier in March, as she and her husband Prince Harry continue to establish themselves as independent from the Royal Family in Hollywood.

It was also reported that Meghan has lodged papers to trademark the initials of her new business, with a list of items she is looking to sell made available to view in a trademark application extension.

Last week papers were lodged at the US Patent and Trademark Office to trademark the company’s logo, which features the letters ARO written in flowery gold script above the word Montecito.

This is the Santa Barbara town Meghan and Harry have made their home with their two young children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

A clip posted to the brand’s new Instagram account shows the Duchess in a vintage-style video, cooking and arranging white hydrangeas and roses.

An inside source told Page Six: “She’s been working on this for over a year and it’s all the things that are close to her heart — all the things she’s passionate about.”

It was reported that American Riviera Orchard would be selling home and kitchenware such as linens, jams and preserves, however this list reveals that Meghan is also looking to expand into skincare, stationary and pet products as well.

“Meghan will be making, and selling, products such as jams. And at some point there will be a book and blog etc.”

Before Meghan married Harry she ran a lifestyle blog called The Tig, where she often shared recipes and spoke about her favourite travel destinations.

The Duke and Duchess have also reached out to Prince William and Princess Kate following the news that Kate has been diagnosed with cancer and will receive preventative chemotherapy.

The couple put out a statement which read: “We wish health and healing for Kate and the family and hope they are able to do so privately and in peace.”

Harry and his older brother William are reportedly not on speaking terms, with Harry not seeing the Prince last time he was briefly in the UK to see their father King Charles.
