Meghan Markle opens As Ever Holiday Collection with baskets and advent calendar

Meghan Markle has opened the first chapter of Christmas at As Ever.

She said in a social media post that As Ever's Holiday Collection: Chapter One is now open, Hello! Magazine reported on 7 October 2026. The post was illustrated with a new kitchen photograph. That image carries the news.

In the photo she wears a black turtleneck paired with black pants. She finished the look with black flats and gold jewellery. Her hair is pulled back in a neat ponytail as she leans against a kitchen bench.

The counter behind her is dressed for the season. Desserts sit alongside As Ever products, including strawberry spread. The set-up puts the range front and centre without a caption needing to explain it.

The brand itself is still young. Markle launched As Ever, her lifestyle brand, in April 2025. Its online shop now covers Pantry, Honeys & Spreads, Teas, Candles, Wine, Bestsellers, and Gifts & Sets, according to its shop page. The site is listed under As Ever Enterprises, LLC with a 2026 copyright notice.

The holiday push goes beyond jars and spreads. On 7 October 2026, Markle unveiled a range of limited-edition wicker baskets for As Ever, AOL reported. The Pantry Basket was priced at £195. The Parlour Basket was priced at £182.

Food remains at the heart of it. She collaborated with Los Angeles chocolatier Compartes on an advent calendar shaped like her Montecito home. As Ever lists the wider Holiday Collection as featuring the 2026 As Ever Holiday Advent Calendar. The festive range launched in October 2026 also includes a series of hampers, with the advent calendar priced at $148, Newsweek reported.

For fans, this means Christmas comes in stages. Chapter One is shoppable now, with baskets, hampers and the calendar leading the first drop.
