Meghan Markle is returning to her lifestyle queen era. And this comeback would go hand in hand with her new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, launch and her Netflix show. The Sussexes are, currently, trying to make the most of their last few months with the streaming giant, Netflix, with no confirmation about a renewal of their $100 million deal yet. And it seems the Duchess is getting even closer to her next Netflix hit with the days passing by. 

Meghan Markle's untitled Netflix show has marked a huge milestone, which is making its release seem like it is knocking on the doorstep.

Meghan Markle was once hailed as the lifestyle and wellness guru. Through her website, The Tig, the former actress shared insights into her life, with a focus on recipes, travel, relationships, fashion, style, and many more lifestyle-related subjects. Now, years after shutting down her site to take on royal duties, the Duchess is making a comeback to her niche through a new Netflix cooking show. And a Hollywood source told The Daily Beast, the filming for the first season of the Netflix series has already been wrapped.

This means Netflix would soon release the show once all the post-production work is done. The filming for the show began in March, and some of it has been shot at the properties of Montecito's philanthropists Tom and Sherrie Cipolla. Markle was also spotted in the wilds of Beverly Gardens Park, allegedly shooting for her Netflix show. However, there is a possibility that the shooting was for her latest brand, American Riviera Orchard, which is on the brink of launching its very first product, reportedly.

Meghan Markle, however, is already said to be "in tears" for criticism over her brand, even before it hit the market.

Meghan Markle kicked off the marketing of American Riviera Orchard by sending jars of jams to her Hollywood circle, who in return gave her brand social media shout-outs. However, the Duchess was soon trolled by fans who mocked the jams for being expensive and nothing special. As per Royal author Tom Quinn's interview with The Mirror, Markle was “in tears” as she could not "understand why people don’t admire her work".

Similar statement was also shared by royal biographer Angela Levin, who told GB News that the Duchess has been feeling "very low" over the criticism of her brand. "She’s very thin-skinned," said Levin. All this is happening even more the brand has reached the general audience. Considering Markle's alleged reaction, it is uncertain whether she would reclaim her lifestyle throne back with power, or these new ventures will face a similar fate as The Tig, to minimize the level of media scrutiny.
