Oprah Winfrey supports Meghan Markle during a challenging personal week by featuring her lifestyle products on a major platform. Several items from the As Ever brand recently appeared on a special holiday episode of the talk show host's podcast titled "Oprah’s Favorite Things."
The official Instagram account for the As Ever brand founded by Meghan Markle celebrated the exciting milestone on Thursday. The team shared two photos of the Signature Basket after Oprah Winfrey selected the gift set for her famous seasonal roundup.

"Filled with As ever favorites, it’s part of our limited-edition Gift Basket Collection, thoughtfully curated for the season of giving. From sweet treats to hosting essentials, there’s a basket for every occasion," the As Ever brand message added.
Meanwhile, the podcast's official Instagram page posted a special video of Oprah Winfrey highlighting gifts like the As Ever brand basket from Meghan Markle. "In a special holiday episode, Oprah brings back one of her legendary traditions with a live audience: Oprahs Favorite Things Celebrating the 30th anniversary of the iconic list, Oprah surprises an unsuspecting audience full of caregivers with her must-have gifts for the season," the caption read.
