Just when it seemed Meghan Markle had explored every possible avenue to stay in the spotlight, she surprises once again. This time, reports suggest she is venturing into the adult wellness industry, following in the footsteps of Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop empire.
According to Radar Online, Meghan is determined to expand her American Riviera Orchard brand beyond its current offerings of pancake mix and jam jars. With a shift into luxury wellness products—including lingerie and adult toys—her next business move has certainly raised eyebrows.
“You can only take a business so far with breakfast items,” an insider shared. “She wants a full range of wellness and lifestyle products, including sex toys and lingerie, similar to what’s sold through Goop.”
Meghan reportedly plans to introduce these new products through her upcoming podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder, a platform that aims to highlight female entrepreneurs. However, some speculate it will double as a promotional tool for her latest business ventures.
In a teaser, Meghan described the podcast as a “dolphin tank” rather than a “shark tank,” emphasizing a supportive and nurturing environment rather than cutthroat competition. However, critics argue it may end up being more of an infomercial than an insightful business discussion.
Interestingly, while Meghan appears eager to replicate Goop’s success, Paltrow herself has begun pulling back from the s-xual wellness sector, as sales have reportedly declined.
While comparisons between the two are inevitable, Goop has established itself as a billion-dollar brand, despite its share of controversy. Meghan’s approach, on the other hand, has been described as “throwing ideas at a wall to see what sticks.”
As Meghan pivots into luxury wellness, questions arise about the status of Archewell—the charity that was meant to define her and Prince Harry’s post-royal legacy. How does selling high-end scented candles and lingerie align with her self-proclaimed humanitarian mission?
From actress to royal, Netflix producer to culinary entrepreneur, and now wellness guru, Meghan’s brand evolution continues at breakneck speed. Could a line of healing crystals or a Sussex-themed reality show be next?
One thing is certain—Meghan Markle is determined to remain in the public eye, no matter the business venture. Whether her latest endeavor is a strategic power move or another fleeting attempt at reinvention remains to be seen.
