Kris Jenner Serves a Thank You Note: Meghan Markle's As Ever Gifts Ignite Social Media Buzz!

Meghan Markle's Rosé Diplomacy: The Duchess of Sussex Gets a Sip from Kris Jenner's Wine Glass

The glamorous world of celebrity friendships and business ventures is always buzzing with intrigue, and Meghan Markle's latest move has us raising an eyebrow! The Duchess of Sussex has been sending bottles of her As Ever Napa Valley Rosé wine to the Kardashian matriarch, Kris Jenner. Yes, you read that right - the same Kris Jenner who has built a media empire with her family.

According to a post on Kris' Instagram Story (because, let's be real, even royalty needs a social media presence), she shared a photo of the wine bottle with a sweet message: "Thank you" @meghanmarkle and @asever. The Duchess, 44, had gifted Kris, 69, the bottles as part of her As Ever range.

But here's where it gets juicy! Meghan has been sending gifts to the Kardashian clan for months now, starting with jam from her brand (because who doesn't love a good homemade spread?). She even sent Khloe Kardashian a deluxe hamper filled with wine, preserves, and an assortment of vegetables. However, when Khloe shared snaps from Kylie's 28th birthday party on social media, she forgot to tag Meghan in the post. Talk about a faux pas!

The comment section was ablaze with drama, with fans calling out the Kardashians for not acknowledging Meghan's generosity. "When you send something over cuz you have to miss the party, except Meghan was never invited to the party," wrote one fan. Another quipped, "The PR team did everything on both sides. These ladies don't do s**t."

It seems like the Kardashians are trying to make nice with the former senior royal (who's been making waves in the world of business and lifestyle). But is it all just a clever marketing ploy? After all, Meghan launched her lifestyle brand As Ever earlier this year, and every product has sold out quickly. The latest addition to her range is the 2024 Napa Valley Rosé wine, which boasts a "delicately balanced" taste with notes of stone fruit and minerality.

But here's what caught our attention: As Ever announced that their new wine would be available for purchase next week, and fans are eagerly anticipating its release. The brand even posted on Instagram with a series of images showing the new wine resting in beach sand, captioned "Oh, how we love seeing the world through rose-colored glasses."

We're not buying it - at least, not entirely. With sales figures skyrocketing and every product selling out quickly, it's clear that Meghan has hit a winning formula. But is this rosé diplomacy just a clever PR stunt? Maybe Kris Jenner saw an opportunity to collaborate with the Duchess and get some free wine. After all, as one fan pointed out, "Kris said they post no products unless they are getting paid for it. The pay is over six figures per post."

Whatever the motive, we can't deny that Meghan's lifestyle brand is making waves in the industry. And who knows - maybe this rosé-filled friendship will be the start of a beautiful business partnership? Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story!
