Kate Middleton’s health has been shrouded in mystery, with sparse updates from Kensington Palace since her stomach surgery in January. Recently, Prince William briefly mentioned her health during official duties. In a recent disclosure, Kate revealed her battle with cancer, though specific details remain private.
During Easter, the family spent three weeks at Anmer Hall in Sandringham, enjoying time together away from the public eye. However, Kate faced scrutiny when an altered Mother’s Day photo circulated, drawing attention.
Queen Camilla, known for navigating media challenges, expressed support for Kate amid the cancer news. She offered encouragement ahead of Kate’s announcement, anticipating the media attention.
In February, Prince William touched upon Kate’s health briefly, but the royal family maintained discretion regarding both Kate and King Charles.
Following a heartwarming encounter where two girls expressed their love for Kate, Queen Camilla assured them that Kate appreciated their kind wishes and support.
Despite the limited updates on Kate Middleton’s health, her recent cancer diagnosis has prompted support from Queen Camilla, who understands the complexities of media scrutiny. Prince William’s brief mention and the family’s Easter retreat at Anmer Hall reflect their solidarity during this challenging time.
MEGHAN MARKLE’S ORCHARD NAME DRAMA: MAJOR REBRANDING DECISION AFTER CLASH
Meghan Markle is thinking about a new name for her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard (ARO), in case her current name doesn’t get approved, according to a source.
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office recently rejected her application to use the ARO name, which has caused some confusion for her team.
The source mentioned that Meghan’s team might need to find a backup name, similar to what Kim Kardashian did when she had to change her shapewear brand name from Kimono to Skims due to cultural issues.
“The team is working on alternative names just in case,” the source said. “They’re a bit stressed but not too worried because Kim Kardashian also had to rebrand and it turned out fine.”
Changing the name now would be expensive because of all the branding work already done, but it’s not considered a disaster.
In March, Meghan Markle introduced her new lifestyle brand on social media and had filed for a trademark for the name American Riviera Orchard in February.
Her company aims to sell various home goods like cookbooks and tableware, as well as food and drink products such as jams and vegetable spreads. They are also considering adding a rose wine to their product line.
However, the trademark application was recently rejected. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) said that “American Riviera” is a common nickname for the Santa Barbara, California area, which makes the name too generic and hard to trademark. The USPTO’s decision was announced on August 31.
The American Riviera refers to the California area, including Montecito, where Meghan Markle lives with Prince Harry and their children, Prince Archie, who is five, and Princess Lilibet, who is three.
Another source mentioned that trademark disputes are common in the U.S. and can usually be resolved. “It looks like American Riviera Orchard has received a few routine office actions, which is normal when filing for trademarks,” the source said.
The Sussexes have not yet commented on the situation.
