Meghan Markle's lifestyle brand, As Ever, has introduced a new line of homeware as part of its second holiday collection. The latest offerings include a teapot, table mats, and a signature candle, expanding the brand's presence in the market.
'Chapter Two' of the holiday collection, announced via the As Ever Instagram account, features "sweet treats, fragrances, the 'Trellis tabletop collection' and 'thoughtful gifts for everyone on your list.'" Among the new items are woven copper coasters, a blue teacup and saucer, jam cookies, and Meghan's raspberry spread. The products are currently available for purchase in the United States.

Additional items include a $75 'Trophy Chocolate Bar Gift Set' in collaboration with Compartés, featuring five chocolate bars. Meghan's 'curated' popcorn medley, marketed as a "luxury taste of nostalgia," is available in milk chocolate, white chocolate, and salted flavors.
This expansion follows the earlier launch of As Ever's $148 advent calendar, which marked Meghan's first major commercial venture since relocating to the UK with Prince Harry and their children. The calendar, described as a "magical celebration of the season," features 24 handcrafted chocolates with flavors inspired by her Montecito home and garden.

The advent calendar faced some controversy when a British priest suggested a less expensive charity alternative. This led to backlash from supporters of the Duchess on social media.
