Meghan Markle Ticks off Good Friends and Good Wine for 2025 Summer in Refreshing New Post

Meghan Markle never truly steps out of the spotlight; she simply shifts its focus, sometimes with exciting announcements and other times by merely existing. Just when the season was beginning to feel predictable, the Duchess of Sussex stirred things up with an Instagram post that blended charm, sunshine, and a hint of her signature finesse. No grand declarations this time, just a gentle nudge that says she is soaking up the sun on her own. It is personal, it is polished, and it is enough to get people whispering all over again.

With one simple post, Meghan Markle reminded humanity that summer is not a season — it is a whole aesthetic.

Minimal words, maximum mood — Meghan Markle shares her seasonal update

Taking to her As Ever Instagram handle, Meghan Markle posted a minimalist yet vibrant frame exuding all the sunny season charm on Saturday, July 12. With a fruit platter comprising strawberries and grapes on a ceramic bowl, occupying a white scarf by the pool, Markle’s latest social media update also featured a notebook with a “Summer Essentials” checklist. The Suits alum appeared to have checked off “Sunshine,” “Good Friends,” and “As Ever Rosé” on the roster, with the latter also popping in the neat capture. Markle captioned the post: “Current status: weekend mode activated.”

While the post did not exclusively shout out the recently launched As Ever wine, it was clear that Meghan Markle was promoting the same. The peachy drink in a thin wine glass appeared every bit as irresistible as those who managed to get their hands on the product during its launch raved on the internet. The product is not the only As Ever commodity popular among shoppers. Markle’s signature organic jams are a must-have, too, and recently, some scooped them up so quickly that others were left utterly disappointed. Markle, hence, had to issue a formal apology alongside a promise.

Behind the polished post and poised branding, Meghan Markle’s latest business chapter recently put her hustle to the test.

The Duchess faced a fruity dilemma as demand outpaced supply

Meghan Markle’s highly anticipated apricot spread had buyers ready to crown it their summer staple. However, after a June 20 oversell, As Ever stalled the supply and sent apologetic emails to those in line. To soften the blow, Markle’s team promised refunds and a free jar of the said flavor of jam once restocks arrived. While some appreciated the move, others complained over yet another fulfillment fumble.

Back to the As Ever Rosé, Meghan Markle also faced the wrath of some royal family aficionados motivated by a sentiment reminiscent of Princess Diana as she launched the product on a very important date. Well, despite the ever-present constant chatter, the product, as mentioned earlier, was a huge hit among fans, and of course, it claimed its place as the crown jewel of her post, honoring the sunny season.
