A well-known culinary icon is said to be quite mythed by comparisons to Megan Marle, according to sources close to her. As Megan gears up to unveil her new brand, American Riviera Orchard, she's also on the brink of debuting her cooking show on Netflix this year, which will celebrate the pleasures of cooking, gardening, entertaining and camaraderie. This show is expected to align with her brand, which will feature a variety of lifestyle products, including the duchess's own line of jams.

However, 82-year-old celebrity chef Martha Stewart is reportedly finding the parallels drawn between her and The Duchess of Sussex to be both annoying and disrespectful. Insiders share that within touch, Martha has witnessed countless individuals like Megan come and go, all bursting onto the scene with the same inflated egos, only to realize that the reality of the industry is far more challenging than they anticipated. She's weary of being asked about her thoughts on Megan's new venture because frankly, it's both irritating and insulting for her to be likened to someone so inexperienced.
Martha has dedicated decades to cultivating her brand through sheer talent, relentless effort and a unique vision. If Megan believes she can stroll in and replicate that success with minimal experience simply because she's married to a prince, she's in for a rude awakening.
In recent months, The Duchess of Sussex, 43, has faced several hurdles in officially launching her products, which many expected would be available by now. These obstacles have largely revolved around trademark issues, with Megan being informed that she cannot trademark a geographical name. Additionally, there have been concerns regarding her logo and she has reported having difficulty securing a CEO for her brand. As of now, there's no confirmed date for when her products will hit the market.

Royal commentator Richard Eden remarked in the Mail that this situation serves as a "classic example of how not to launch a business." Meanwhile, in a recent development within the realm of royal commentary, Omid Scobie - the biographer known for his close ties to Megan Markle and Prince Harry - has found himself at the center of controversy.
This time it's courtesy of Mike Tindall, the former rugby star and current member of the royal family by marriage, who has taken aim at Scobie in his newly co-authored book “The Good, The Bad and The Rugby Unleashed,” set to be released on October 24th. The book, co-written with former England rugby player James Haskell, promises to deliver a candid take on Tindall's experiences both within the royal family and the world of sports.

Scobie, who co-authored the 2020 book “Finding Freedom,” is described in Tindall's book as “FG nuts,” a remark that reflects the growing tension between certain members of the royal family and those who seek to chronicle their lives. In a further jab, Haskell characterized Scobie as a “very odd bloke” and expressed a shared sentiment about the fervor of American royal watchers, saying “We all know that American royal fans are FG nuts, especially Scobies."

This colorful language highlights the sometimes absurd and intense scrutiny that royal family members and their associates endure from the public and media. This clash of perspectives comes after Scobie criticized Tindall for appearing on the reality television show “I’m A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!,” accusing him of exploiting his royal connections for personal gain. Such accusations are not uncommon in the current landscape, where the lines between celebrity culture and royal duties often blur.
