Meghan Markle releases gushing Thanksgiving message: ‘Playing a small role in your memories is not lost on me’
Meghan Markle sent out a gushing message on Thursday morning, thanking her As Ever customers for their support over the year.
The Duchess of Sussex, 44, sent an email to subscribers, wishing them a ‘very Happy Thanksgiving, from my family to yours.’
‘I am so thankful for your support and warmth as we’ve grown As ever throughout the year, and the way in which you’ve invited this collection to be a part of your home,’ the gushing email read.
It continued, thanking customers for allowing Markle to ‘play a small role in your memories, family moments, special celebrations, and daily routines.’
‘From the jam you layer onto morning toast or slather onto PB&J for your kids’ lunchboxes; the honey you stir into your tea; the candle you light to welcome the day or to close it out with a cozy bath; the bottle of bubbles you pop to celebrate; or the wine you sip as you toast your loved ones—you’ve invited us in,’ the Duchess wrote.
‘I am privileged that As ever gets a seat at the table with you and the ones you love,’ the saccharine message continued.
The actress said she feels ‘very grateful’ for ‘this adventure of life, for the love and support — and for you,’ as well as for her ‘husband, children, family and dear friends.’
‘Wishing you a Thanksgiving with full hearts and full bellies,’ she concluded the email.

‘Thank you for supporting As ever. It really does mean the world to me.’
Earlier this month, the mom-of-two released an As Ever holiday drop, introducing a new range of products to the line.
The drop included two scented candles that each retailed for $64, a $16 hot toddy and apple cider spice mulling kit, and a special sage honey with honeycomb in it for $32.
Of course, it wouldn’t be As Ever without some fruit spread as well, with Meghan also deciding to release a gift set of her signature fruit spreads by introducing strawberry jam into her current mix of orange marmalade and raspberry for just $42 – which ended up making Oprah’s Favorite Things list just days later.
On Wednesday, the As Ever founder was slammed after concerned viewers noticed a faux pas in the kitchen that could endanger her guests’ health if not attended to.
The Duchess shared a short clip to Instagram showing her preparing a turkey ahead of the holiday.
In the video, the actress mixed a variety of seasonings into a bowl, rubbing the mixture onto the raw bird to prepare it for the oven.
Although she appears to wash her hands after rubbing the seasoning in, eagle-eyed viewers noticed she kept all her jewelry on while handling the raw meat, sparking concern about her lack of kitchen hygiene.

Last week, Meghan appeared with no makeup in the cover photo for Harper’s Bazaar
Last week, the Suits star appeared on the front of Harper’s Bazaar magazine’s December 2025/January 2026 edition, which was labeled as the art issue.
She appeared to be wearing no makeup in the cover photo, with her hair tied back, showing off a pair of dangling diamond earrings.
The mom-of-two wore a low-cut, black silk blazer with a tie at the waist, as the magazine’s cover was titled, ‘Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, Meets her Moment.’
In another photo for the magazine, Meghan posed in a sleeveless red dress with a dramatic cape draping over one shoulder.
Discussing learning from imperfect moments, she shared: ‘You learn not to do it again.
‘If it all goes swimmingly, you don’t learn from it. If you don’t learn anything, you’re not going to grow.
‘I’m a mom with kids at that age where they are constantly learning something new. I watch them face things that feel completely insurmountable every day.
‘But you can remember and say, “I know it seems really hard right now, but trust me, that’s going to come so easily soon.” I can give myself the same grace as a founder. There’s no such thing as perfect. I, too, get to make mistakes.’
The Duchess added that there was ‘not a lot of fun’ in trying to be perfect.
Elsewhere in the interview, Meghan also spoke about her relationship with Prince Harry, who she married in 2018.
She said of Harry: ‘He loves me so boldly, fully, and he also has a different perspective because he sees media that I wouldn’t.’
‘No one in the world loves me more than him, so I know he’s always going to make sure that he has my back,’ she continued.
The Duchess of Sussex also shared that her husband brought out a ‘childlike wonder’ and ‘playfulness’ in her.
‘That’s translated into every part of our life. Even in business, I want us to play and have fun and explore and be creative,’ she shared.
