King Charles Undercuts Meghan Markle Selling Jam Norfolk, Sandringham

King Charles III and Meghan Markle are both selling raspberry jam, with Charles pricing his Sandringham raspberry preserves significantly lower than Meghan's As Ever brand, sparking speculation of a competitive dynamic. Charles’ jam, sold for around $6.70 (£4.99), is described as naturally made with locally sourced ingredients and available at Sandringham and other UK stores. In contrast, Meghan’s As Ever preserves, priced at $9 to $14 (£6.63 to £10.80), emphasize a unique blend with a hint of lemon and a versatile texture. Meghan’s jam launch generated considerable interest, selling out quickly, but also stirred minor controversy when some friends felt excluded from receiving gifts of the preserves. Despite media framing the situation as a “jam war,” neither party appears to be directly engaging in competition, though fans and critics have fueled comparisons between the two products. Both brands highlight quality and distinct recipes, with Charles leveraging his longstanding royal estate brand and Meghan building her lifestyle brand presence.
