Meghan Markle shifts focus to As Ever’s teasing announcement amid publicist’s exit

Meghan Markle is moving on after her and Prince Harry’s publicist, Emily Robinson, recently quit the job — the Duchess of Sussex has something exciting to share with the followers of her lifestyle brand, As Ever.

Taking to her Instagram stories, the royal entrepreneur reminded her customers about a post she had shared a day ago, which featured her frolicking through her wooded backyard with a basket on her arm.

The Duchess reposted a story from As Ever’s account, captioned, “Save the date October 28th…”

While little else is known about the upcoming launch, since the initial footage to accompany the announcement showed Meghan grabbing something from one of the trees in her garden, the new product could be an extension of As Ever’s famous fruit preserves — a particularly favourite delicacy of its founder.

Though, despite being largely known for its jams and other domestic items, the brand recently launched a collection of wines as well.

Released October 4, the beverage was described as, “Our first Sauvignon Blanc is bright and balanced, with citrus aromatics, a smooth finish, and refreshing versatility”. While it debuted alongside As Ever’s orange marmalade and apricot spread.

Meanwhile, as Meghan Markle keeps herself occupied with professional duties and increasingly public appearances, it is crucial to highlight that her director of communications, a former Netflix employee as well, Emily Robinson’s exit from the Sussex team was reported on Friday. A spokesperson for the couple told PEOPLE that she “oversaw project-based work for a very successful season of ‘With Love, Meghan’ and additional support for the production company,” while further describing the PR executive’s project management as “an excellent job”, completed with “great success”.
