Prevented from using American Riviera Orchard, Meghan has come up with the brand name, As Ever!

I don’t know about the USA but has nobody advised her that in the UK it’s often a term of exasperation? 🤔

She’s not at all worldly wise is she?

Rules apply to you as well, Meghan so you need to learn all about them.

It sounds as if she either doesn't listen, or she is badly advised.

History shows us that Meghan doesn’t take advice from anyone.

Harry did inform staff ‘what Megan wants Megan gets ‘ , she does seem controlling, she wanted to change the way the royal family carried out its duty

Who's advising her? Surely anyone with an ounce of common sense would have done their due diligence regarding brand names and similarity to other websites/programmes etc? Does she not have a team helping her? Or does she jump in feet first and do her own thing regardless of any advice she is given?

Now it appears there are startling similarities with her trailer and phrases to Pamela Anderson’s lifestyle programme called Cooking with Love publicised last Autumn and due for release.

As always.

As ever

She didn’t get the Rivera trademark! Surely this latest venture
won’t crash , if it doesn’t she will not give up , she needs centre stage.

Will that woman EVER take the hint and shut up?

‘That woman’ being Meghan, not NotSpaghetti!

Kolski, who started the As Ever clothing brand has sold under that name since 2017 - but it is not trademarked apparently.

Meghan is trying to do this for her company but it seems she has been a bit economical with the truth in that only her application for it has been accepted. So as yet it is not "secured".

She failed to get the American Riviera trademark.

It seems this is a bigger wormy can than I first thought!

Meghan has a knack for backing herself into a corner mainly because she will not listen to advice.

25Avalon Thu 20-Feb-25 22:09:29

She certainly carries on

Rula Thu 20-Feb-25 21:36:10

I almost feel sorry for the woman. Nothing she hoped for has materialised. I'm amazed at how she carries on.

25Avalon Thu 20-Feb-25 21:34:26

I don’t understand why it hasn’t been checked properly.

Anniebach Thu 20-Feb-25 19:46:12

Yes they have publicity but again she is charging her way ahead regardless of others

25Avalon Thu 20-Feb-25 18:27:06

There is now a company in Arizona called As Ever Photography who aren’t happy about the use of their name. They have got publicity out of it to be fair.

Katherine, Catherine, Kate we all know who she is Merlot Gran.

So I take it from that, that if I call you woodentop or picnicspoon you won't mind and everyone will know who I mean?

I have used the phrase ‘as ever’ on Christmas and birthday cards before now.

eazybee Thu 20-Feb-25 13:34:05

I am not surprised the Sussex's venture keep failing as both seem incapable of doing in-depth research and coming up with original ideas. Neither have any experience of business.

They seem to think that attaching their name to a possible money-making scheme will be enough to make it successful.
Not in today's world.

Lizzie44 Thu 20-Feb-25 12:44:20

Whatevs.... Am I bovered?

Anniebach Thu 20-Feb-25 05:12:22

I agree. I don’t think she is jealous, she loves the limelight, she loves centre stage, her speech at the Invictus Games show this, no thought for the veterans it was all herself, the way she pushes Harry back if they are meeting someone, she has to be first, the grabbing of microphones

25Avalon Wed 19-Feb-25 22:41:27

I am not sure Meghan is jealous. I think she is living the life she wants but needs to find a way of sustaining it and this is her latest venture. Unfortunately for her, her team has not done its full research, and the latest name is already being claimed by a New York clothing store and the motive is already in use and has been for hundreds of years by another country. Oh dear! Is this going to be a back to the drawing board moment again? Heads could roll.
