King Charles Discounts English Rosé Ahead Meghan Markle’s Wine Launch

King Charles's Highgrove Gardens has launched a 15% discount on its Sparkling English Rosé during English Wine Week, coinciding with the upcoming release of Meghan Markle's Napa Valley rosé under her As Ever brand. The timing has sparked speculation of a subtle rivalry between the King's domestic English wine and Meghan's Californian offering, with the King's rosé selling out following the promotion. Both wines reflect the respective royal figures' interests, with King Charles's wine supporting British viticulture and charity, while Meghan's profits go directly to her business ventures. This competitive dynamic echoes previous product overlaps, such as Meghan's raspberry spread paralleling one of the King's preserves. Meanwhile, internal royal family dynamics reveal that Prince Philip once gave Meghan a stinging nickname, comparing her to the controversial Duchess of Windsor, highlighting historic tensions despite Queen Elizabeth II's initial support for Meghan. These developments underscore complex personal and commercial interactions within the royal family.
