Meghan Markle has been tipped to rake in a staggering seven-figure sum from new lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard after announcing her first product – a luxury jar of strawberry jam.
The lifestyle brand – set to produce a variety of home, health and food products – was revealed last month.
She has since delivered the jam to 50 influencers and friends, including fashion designer Tracy Robbins and former Suits co-star Abigail Spencer, for their review.
PR guru Mayah Riaz expects the venture to be a financial success and lead to the expansion of pantry essentials on sale. Commentators are comparing Meghan’s products to the likes of LeBron James or Julianne Moore honey which sold for as much as $250.
Riaz told The Mirror: “It has already been reported a single jam jar could cost three figures. I believe that is entirely likely from what we have seen so far. This is not rare for a celebrity brand.

“Therefore, my estimation is that American Riveria Orchard in under a year could make Meghan seven figures. It is entirely possible for the brand to make multi seven figures by the end of next year.”
On the types of food products expected to appear on supermarket shelves, Riaz believes honey could be debuted alongside a variety of jams.
She said: “I think we could see a range of limited edition jams, in a variety of flavours being launched.
“It is possible that Meghan that we may see Meghan bring out American Riviera Orchard honey – which would be limited edition.
“Essentially, from the clues we have of the brand so far, Meghan may launch a variety of cupboard favourites.
“Along with jams, honey, she may possibly even create sauces and pestos.
“Essentially items which are seen as luxury and would sit well in hampers. They would also be ideal items for gifting – if you can get your hands on them.”
