Not So Fast: Meghan's As Ever Stock “Leak” Flips Into a Success Story as Harry Chases Jennifer Lopez

0:03 Calorogus Shark Media. Hello and welcome through Palace Intrigue. I'm your host, Mark Francis. Well, not so fast, those of you podcasters who were making fun of Megan Markel's unsold inventory. You may recall earlier this week, online users reported a glitch on the as Ever website. The briefly exposed inventory data. According to reports circulated on Reddit and cited by the Sun, the figures appear to relate to an initial production run of one million units for certain products. One item in particular, the signature fruit spread Marks, reportedly showed just over one hundred and thirty seven thousand units remaining, with the box priced at thirty one pounds. That would suggest sales in the tens of millions of pounds from that product alone if the figures are accurate. A source with insight into the business told The Daily Express, while it's normal for a business not to talk about sales data, I think it's fair to say that the glitch has led to this data being revealed points to a business that isn't just successful, it's flying literally off the shelf. Products literally flying off the shelf would be an amazing scientific breakthrough, Suggesting as evers products have achieved sentience or at least the ability to take flight on their own. Assume it was more of a figurative flight. Let's go back to the source who added Megan inadvertently revealed in a recent interview a purchase order of one million for one product.

1:31 It doesn't take a genius to work out that what is left points to a company doing extremely well. According to the same source, the large production run was likely part of a broader international expansion plan, adding that large stock order was obviously part of the international expansion plans the Dudess have spoken about for the brand. Given how the product is tracking, it's likely they'll have to increase what's in the stock room to meet demand when the product is made available in other territories. Screenshots shared online had suggested tens of thousands of items still in stock across the range, including mold spice kits, marmalade, and candles. Shortly after the posts gained attention, the as Ever website was updated to limit purchases, with caps now in place and the number of items customers can buy it once.

2:16 Megan previously addressed the scale of demand in an interview with Bloomberg's the Circuit, saying, we prepped for the second season will drop and ten xt our inventory. We thought for sure it would at least last for a couple of weeks. That's sold out in a couple of hours. The conversation goes from at the start of this year talking about a few thousand jars and leads to we need to do a purchase order of a million. A source told Newsweek. People are attempting to paint a negative narrative and are choosing how they present things, choosing how they share information to fit a particular narrative to perpetuate certain negative storylines. And this is just another example of how people have to be really discerning with the way that they not only consume media, but the way that they interpret data, facts that has shared with them, because they often don't present the whole picture. As ever, exceeded everyone's expectations in terms of how well it's gone. I would say across the holiday period, that period has been incredibly successful. If we do spot any legally fruit spread at the odd loots, will let you know. Prince Harry is reportedly making quiet outreach calls to high profile celebrities in an effort to boost support for his charitable causes, with Jennifer Lopez said to be high on his wish list.

3:31 According to Radar Online, the Duke of Sussex has become increasingly competitive when it comes to philanthropy, particularly after watching his brother Prince William attract major names to royal backed initiatives. One inside it claimed Harry is very competitive and seeing his brother real in all these big names for his philanthropic efforts has little fire under him. He's the one in Hollywood and he's saying it ought to be him who gets the biggest names. But no doubt Jennifer Lopez is the most thrilling prospect for him because he's very taken with her since they met. The pair reportedly met shortly after Harry and Meghan moved to the US in twenty twenty, when the Sussexes shared an intimate dinner in Miami with Lopez and her then partner Alex Rodriguez. At the time, a source claimed most men are totally captured by herb and Harry is only human, adding that the Duke spent much of the evening chatting with the star.

4:22 Another insider alleged that Meghan left that dinner feeling very jealous. Addressing the recent outreach, a source insisted there was nothing inappropriate taking place, saying there's certainly nothing shady going on, but added this was hard to imagine that Megan will be all that pleased about this. As for Archwell, Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams tells The Express when a charity is obviously failing, they should truly increase it if they really believe in it as they claim to. It is indelibly linked to their image, and they have exploited their royal connections ruthlessly, but this seems to be failing. They are attempting to be beacons of positivity whilst being estranged from their families bar Meghan's mother, and this affects their charitable work.

5:04 The International Business Times quoted sources close to Prince Harry Is saying the Duke of Sussex is privately struggling, describing him as homesick, deeply unhappy, and increasingly convinced that his life in California has been a mistake. One source said Harry now feels homesick, henpecked and hollowed out, adding that he no longer recognizes himself and feels adrift without the structure and purpose he once had his Working Royal. According to multiple accounts, Harry has become fixated on returning to Europe and said to be openly questioning whether he has any future in the United States at all. One Inside It claimed Harry has reached a breaking point with his life in California and has been blunt with Meghan that he no longer sees a future for himself there. He feels profoundly unhappy and directionless, frustrated that the professional opportunities he hoped would materialize never truly did. Friends say the disappointment cuts deeply. Another source said he has struggled to form close friendships, feels isolated, and has been shaken by what they described as Hollywood's cooling interest in him and his wife, Meghan Markle. The rejection stings, the source said, noting that Harry once commanded admiration simply by virtue of who he was. He misses the life he had. One source said, this is a man who loved his sports, having a laugh with a bind with his powers at the pub. He misses the sense of purpose being Working Royal gave him. There has also been suggestions that Harry's recent legal fight over UK security has been driven by more than principle. When inside, he claimed that case became an escape route. Meghan told him to let it be,

6:34 but deep down she knows he's done this in part to try and get back home. He is just absolutely done with life in the States. Harry is expected to return to Britain later this month for the opening of his High Court case against the publisher of The Daily Mail, but there are no plans for him to see his father during the trip. According to The Telegraph, the Duke of Sussex well flying from California for the start of the trial, provisionally set for jang nineteenth, and is likely to remain in the UK only briefly due to commitments back in the US. While relations between Harry and King Charles have thought in recent months following a private meeting at Clarence House last September, royal sources say the King has no desire to be associated with ongoing court proceedings and is expected to be in Scotland at that time.

7:20 Harry will be the first witness to give evidence in the nine week case, which also involves high profile figures including Elton John and Baroness Lawrence, and alleges unlawful information gathering by associated newspapers. The Duke is said to be king to repeat his partial victory against Mirror Newspapers in twenty twenty three, and is determined to attend the opening this time, particularly after missing the settlement of his case against Newsgroup Newspapers last year. His visit could also be his last without guaranteed taxpayer funded security, as he remains cautiously optimistic that a recent full risk assessment will lead to the reinstatement of armed protection, actually paving the way for Megan and their children to visit the UK again in the future. More palacing just a moment, A youth care center in Nottingham's announced plans to expand into a full film school after receiving a major personal donation from Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex, had supported the Community Recording Studio since twenty thirteen. The charity works in Saint Anne's, an inner city area that has long struggled with deprivation, drugs and violent crime. Using music and sport to mentor young people. Harry revealed last September he had made a substantial personal donation to support projects in Nottingham helping young people affected by violence. The funding is expected to help the charity replace its aging building, which has been in use for more than three decades. During that visit, Harry said Nottingham has my commitment, my respect, and forever a

8:52 place in my heart. The studio's founder in chief executive Trevor Rose, said the donation would make a huge difference at a that Harry's long standing relationship with the organization made the gesture especially meaningful. He's known as for over ten years, Rose said, so for him to say I'm willing to do this goes a long way. Plans for redevelopment include a state of the art recording studio, a basketball court, a professional four G football pitch, and new facilities for acting and creative work. Rose said that charity intends to evolve into a film studio and training center, offering acting classes and producing film led by young people from the community. We're going to evolve into being a film studio, Rose said, We're going to bring out young actors.
