Meghan Markle<\/a><\/strong> and King Charles<\/a><\/strong> have reportedly become jam rivals. A source claimed that the 76-year-old monarch has slashed his product\u2019s prices in half to compete with his estranged daughter-in-law.\u00a0The king has been selling his Sandringham raspberry jam at the U.K. grocery stores for several years. He does the business through his Duchy of Cornwall estate. On the other hand, Markle\u2019s As Ever preserves are comparatively new in the market but are quite popular among buyers.<\/p>\n

King Charles\u2019 jams sells at a lesser price than Meghan Markle\u2019s, says source<\/p>\n

King Charles\u2019 jams have reportedly been sold in lesser price than Meghan Markle\u2019s. A source told Rob Shuter\u2019s #Shuterscoop<\/a> that Sandringham raspberry product has now been priced at $6.70, while As Ever preserves\u2019 cost is $14. According to the palace insider, the monarch\u2019s team taste-tested Markle\u2019s product before cutting down the cost.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey wanted theirs cheaper and better,\u201d they added. Perfect to go with a \u201cwarm buttered toast,\u201d Charles\u2019 jam is expected to hit the \u201cmass market.\u201d As the Duchess of Sussex has built As Ever on \u201cexclusivity,\u201d the source claimed that the king has been allegedly \u201caiming straight at her price point.\u201d His preserves have already been on the market for a long period and might have loyal customers.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the former TV actor launched her brand earlier this year. However, it gained immense attention for various reasons. While the products were sold out instantly, she also received slightly disappointing reactions from her friends. During an episode of the Netflix show, \u201cWith Love, Meghan,\u201d she shed light on the situation.<\/p>\n

According to the New York Post<\/a>, the duchess had made gift hampers for 50 of her close friends, which contained fresh fruit jams, especially made by her in her kitchen. So, when her pal Mindy Kaling received it, she initially felt special. After learning that Markle sent the gift baskets to 50 people, she took it otherwise. However, the \u201cSuits\u201d alum had no intention to make her friends unhappy. \u201cIt was not a ranking. It was just, \u2018Let me share them.\u2019 And then people started to take it very personally,\u201d the 44-year-old duchess said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meghan Markle and King Charles have reportedly become jam rivals.
