Meghan Markle shows off her ‘complicated’ floral arrangement in new promo for £191 As Ever tea box

Meghan Markle has shared her top tips for flower arranging in a new video promoting a nearly £200 tea box from her lifestyle brand, As Ever. 

The Duchess of Sussex, 44, appeared barefoot in the short clip that was posted on the brand’s Instagram page on Tuesday night, as Meghan gave her followers a quick tablescaping tutorial. 

Meghan opted to wear a monochrome, cream ensemble, including a sweater and cropped trousers, which she paired with her nearly £13,000 Cartier Juste un Clou necklace and Princess Diana‘s famous Tank Francaise watch. 

Explaining how she decorates her dinner table, the mother-of-two said she ‘loves to have multiple vases’ of different shapes and sizes and performed a demonstration. 

‘I like them low,’ she continued, adding, ‘Do an entire tablescape, so you can see everybody as you’re talking to them during dinner and still have that beautiful arrangement.’ 

Meghan then plucked off the leaves on the stem of a gardenia as she said: ‘It looks complicated, but trust me, you can do it.’ 

The video included a link to buy As Ever’s limited edition Garden Tea Bloom Box, which retails for $255 (£191). 

It was created in collaboration with a luxury floral delivery service and gifting brand, High Camp Supply, which charges hundreds of dollars for boxes of gardenias and peonies. 

The Garden Tea Bloom Box comprises long stem and loose flowers for ‘floating arrangements’ along with As Ever’s Herbal Peppermint Tea and Sage Honey with Honeycomb. 

Another post included pictures of Meghan arranging gardenias in a wicker basket, with her beloved beagle Mia in the frame.

This is Meghan’s first product launch since As Ever parted ways with Netflix. 

She announced the collaboration by sharing a sweet picture of her daughter Lilibet, four, before giving followers a glimpse of her son Archie in a follow-up video. 

The Duchess shared an intimate glimpse of Lilibet holding a white flower as Meghan wrapped her hand around the toddler’s in the first promo photo. 

The Duchess captioned the post: ‘Something is blooming. A new collaboration with @highcampgardenias arrives tomorrow.’

Lilibet could also be seen in a video of Meghan making flower arrangements. 

In the footage, Harry and Meghan’s daughter, with her long red hair, runs up to the Duchess and whispers something in her ear. 

Meghan then replies, ‘Yes, I think you can. Let’s go!’ as they both dash off camera.

Meghan also shared two pictures of herself with her daughter; one where she helps pour water into a vase and another of her hiding under the table.

Although Archie, six, doesn’t appear in the clip, Meghan can be heard asking him,  ‘are you having fun, my love?’

High Camp, the brand Meghan is partnering with, is a luxury retailer that specialises in custom floral arrangements. It was founded by Susan Hanson back in 2014.

The company, which ships Californian-grown gardenias to customers’ doorsteps, is popular with celebrities and has featured in publications such as Vanity Fair.

Floral arrangements advertised on its website are priced at up to $1,150, with the cheapest options starting at around $200.

It comes amid rumours that the Sussexes are working on a Rivals-style drama centred on two warring families for Netflix. 

Despite Harry’s 2024 documentary, Polo, being a ratings flop, the Sussexes are reportedly executive producing a scripted TV show about ‘the Sport of Kings’.

The project, which has no title, will revolve ‘around the messy dynamics between two rival teams and the families that lead them’ and has been described as Harry’s new ‘passion project’.

It is not known how far into development the scripted show is – but the drama will apparently aim to ‘widen the scope of what is considered an elitist sport beyond the rich owners and star players’.

Since the drama claims emerged in the US, the show has already been compared to Jilly Cooper’s ‘bonkbuster’ Rivals, which is also set in the glamorous world of polo and has proved a huge hit for Disney+.

The premise of Harry and Meghan’s polo drama – with the tensions between two families at its heart – has raised some eyebrows amongst royal fans given the strained relationship between the Sussexes and the Windsors.

The show is ‘set in the high-flying equestrian town of Wellington, Florida’, according to Deadline.

The Daily Mail has asked Netflix to comment on the claims, and whether this could be the first project under Harry and Meghan’s downgraded ‘first look’ deal with the streamer.

The proposed drama came after a series of bombshell articles giving an insider’s view of the Sussexes’ uncoupling with Netflix over As Ever and With Love, Meghan.

Last month, Variety published a brutal takedown of the couple, claiming that the streamer is ‘done’ with Harry and Meghan.

‘The Sussexes’ perceived pattern of selling repackaged versions of the same story about their exit from royal life has exhausted Netflix,’ the magazine said.

The article, which claims to be sourced from half a dozen well-placed insiders, went on to claim: ‘Their partnership may continue to taper off, and with it will Meghan and Harry’s remaining showbusiness lifeline.’

It also quotes a source as saying: ‘The mood in the building is “We’re done”.’
