On April 20th, Meghan Markle just dropped news on her latest as-ever candles, pulling inspiration straight from her kids, six-year-old Prince Archie, and four-year-old Princess Lillibet. Each one ties to their birth dates. Archie's on May 6th and Lillibet's on June 4th, with full royal titles in the names. They retail for $64 a piece and hit shelves April 22nd as part of her Mother's Day lineup. The scents play off those dates, too. Ginger, Narali, and Casimir for Archie, Amber, Water Lillibet, and Sanzel for Lillibet. This fits right into her as-ever lifestyle brand, which she announced back in February 2025, offering jams, teas, baking mixes, and more. Home goods, fans hit social media hard, calling it out for caching in on the kids and their titles. Many grived about the price tag, saying it's steep when nice candles go for way less, even comparing it to a week's groceries. Meanwhile, this launch follows some rough patches, Netflix just acts their deal with,
as ever last month, including her cooking show, with Love, Megan. After two seasons, they praised her vision, but called it a wrap. Word as the brand keeps pushing forward, turning everyday vibes into premium products, but the online shade has every and watching how these candles land with buyers. I'm Cory with the story, and you've been listening to Entertainment and celebrity news today, AI-powered pop culture coverage.
