Meghan Markle Is Reportedly Expanding Into This Surprise Sector

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex speaks onstage during the 2025 TIME100 Summit at Jazz at Lincoln Center on April 23, 2025 in New York City.

Meghan Markle's lifestyle brand, As Ever, has big ambitions. While the shop's first product drop was limited to jam, crêpe mix and a few other fancy store-cupboard items, the Duchess of Sussex clearly isn't planning to stop there. The California-based royal entrepreneur has just dropped a major hint as to her plans in the form of a new trademark application, as reported by The Sun. The new category Meghan is eyeing up? Hospitality, apparently.

The website Trademarkia indicates that As Ever has applied for a Class [043] trademark, which corresponds to "Restaurant and Hotel Services," and for which the description reads: "Hospitality services in the nature of provision of food and drink; Hospitality services in the nature of provision of temporary accommodation."
