Privacy NoticeMeghan Markle’s new lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard has suffered a fresh setback ahead of its official launch following the discovery of trademark “irregularities”. The Duchess of Sussex has sought to trademark the name of her service, American Riviera Orchard, for international use ahead of a full-scale launch next year. However, MailOnline reports that records show that in July, some four months after requesting to register it, there were a number of “irregularities” which needed to be “corrected.” According to the reports, several items intended to be sold by the luxury brand including yoga matts and picnic labels were incorrectly labelled and needed to be “corrected”.

The outlet claims that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s lawyers have been notified of the various issues regarding ARO’s trademark, which include “incorrect classification of yoga blankets, picnic baskets and recipe books”. The error, identified by the US Patents and Trademarks Office – the agency responsible for granting US patents and registering trademarks – in July, will reportedly cost an estimated $11,382 (around £9,000) to fix. The commercial production of the brand is reportedly being taken over by Netflix ahead of the release of Meghan’s new cooking show and it is believed that the streaming giant will cover this cost. The Duchess of Sussex’s latest business venture was anticipated to hit the shelves at some point in the near future, however, this setback has reportedly put the launch on hold.

Meghan proudly introduced her brand on March 14, simultaneously unveiling both an engaging Instagram account and a comprehensive website for the budding brand. It was then confirmed that Meghan’s latest venture would be dishing out a range of kitchen and homeware appliances, alongside her very own collection of oils, nut butters, jams, preserves – and there’s even been talk of rose wine.
