Meghan Markle says everyone in her family likes a different one of her jams – and reveals what Harry, ‘Lil’ and ‘Arch’s’ favourites are
Meghan Markle said everyone in her family prefers a different flavor of their jam and revealed their favorites.
Prince Harry’s favorite is raspberry, while his four-year-old daughter Lilbet prefers strawberry, while seven-year-old Archie loves both flavours.
The 44-year-old Duchess of Sussex, who sells jam, rosé wine and flower sprinkles under her brand As Ever, said her preferred flavor is orange marmalade.
He also revealed the nicknames he gave his children, referring to Archie as “Arch” and Lilibet as “Lil”.
In a post on As Ever’s Instagram promoting their jam, Meghan said: ‘Everyone in my family has a different favourite. My husband loves raspberries, Lil loves strawberries, and Arch loves them both. And I like marmalade.’
The post is titled: ‘Inspired by the jams Meghan has created in her own kitchen and shared over the years, each jam reflects a small-batch, carefully balanced approach to flavor.
‘With a bright, fruity touch and a slight whisper of lemon, these spreads are designed to highlight the natural essence of each fruit without overdoing it.’
Meghan’s latest video comes just days after she shared footage of Harry, 41, handing her a cake and gifting her a penguin statue as they celebrated their eighth wedding anniversary.

Ahead of the launch of Meghan With Love in March last year, the duchess said the make-or-break cooking show had helped her “find herself” again
A story on Instagram showed Meghan singing “happy birthday” to her husband in the kitchen and handing him a lemon elderflower cake with four candles.
Archie and Lilibet were heard singing excitedly and shouting ‘blow it’ in the background.
Meghan’s As Ever brand has previously partnered with Netflix.
But in March, months after the streaming giant dropped its lifestyle show amid brutal criticism from critics, the companies split.
At the time, a spokesperson for As Ever confirmed to the Daily Mail: ‘As Ever is grateful for Netflix’s partnership throughout the launch and our first year.
‘We have experienced meaningful and rapid growth and As Ever is now ready to stand on its own two feet.
‘We have an exciting year ahead and we can’t wait to share more.
Ahead of the launch of Meghan With Love in March last year, the duchess said the make-it-or-break-it cooking show had helped her “find herself” again.
She has described herself as a ‘female founder’ and ‘entrepreneur’, but she is not an influencer.
“I consider myself an entrepreneur and a female founder, and if the brand is effective, that would be great,” she told People magazine.

And last month Meghan promised Patrick J Adams a jar of her jam was ‘on the way’ after her Suits co-star joked that she hadn’t received a jar because she didn’t have enough social media followers.
Speaking on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast last month, Patrick, who plays Meghan’s boyfriend Mike Ross in the legal soap, admitted he had ‘no trouble’ after host Amanda Hirsch revealed he had been sent floral sprays and spread from As Ever.
The Duchess was mentioned multiple times throughout the episode; this includes Amanda asking Patrick if he sent her a ‘handwritten note’.
‘Yes, I’m sure I got a handwritten note,’ the actor replied, before praising Meghan’s ‘flawless’ and ‘amazing’ penmanship.
‘Did you get any jam?’ Patrick shot back before Amanda said she got a care package from As Ever that included $15 floral sprinkles and a $12 spread.
‘I don’t think I have enough followers,’ Amanda later joked as she teased him and said: ‘You should get on the list.’
After a clip from the episode featuring the duchess was posted on Instagram, Meghan left a comment for Patrick and his wife, Troian Bellisario, informing them that they were “jamming.” [sic] We are on our way for you’.
