In March, Markle announced her new cooking and lifestyle business, American Riviera Orchard, similar to Gwyneth Paltrow's much-talked about brand, Goop.

After the announcement, Markle went on a search to land a CEO, and just one month later a source revealed: "The initial CEO search has not panned out so far."

Now, another insider said: "She is the CEO of American Riviera Orchard."

Markle is said to want her new brand to focus on home, garden, food and lifestyle wants, and her lawyer has applied to trademark the brand in America for various goods, including cutlery, recipe books, jams, edible oils, and more.

Amid the royal's CEO search, she also begun talks with Netflix to have the streamer enter into a commercial partnership with American Riviera Orchard.

The insider said at the time: "This is something new for Netflix. It would run the lifestyle business with Meghan, developing products as spin-offs from her show. 'If a partnership is agreed, it's likely that Netflix would install its own CEO to run operations."

Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, previously worked with Netflix for their docuseries, Harry & Meghan.

Another source told RadarOnline.com: "... She's on the verge of expanding her lifestyle site and sees herself as some kind of Gwyneth Paltrow star due to her previous acting career and now all her efforts to pitch herself as a lifestyle, wellness and mental health 'expert'."

Markle was a part of the legal drama Suits cast before meeting and tying the knot with Harry.

Markle was previously branded "Duchess Difficult", a "boss from hell" and even a "dictator in high heels", allegedly by some of her staffers.

Earlier this year, the company's chief of staff Josh Kettler made his exit as a source at the time claimed: "... Are Meghan and Harry terrible at choosing employees, or is it a terrible work environment?"

All this comes as Markle and Harry have continued to go on their own path amid rumors their marriage is on the rocks.

Markle went solo on November 15 when she attended a launch party for her friend Kadi Lee's haircare range, Highbrow Hippie. During the event, Markle was spotted on the dance floor while a gospel performed.

She was also seen laughing it up with Lee and hairstylist Serge Normant, who happened to style the former actress for her 2018 wedding to Harry.

A source at the time said: "[Meghan] was very open and friendly with everyone. Meghan was incredibly warm and touchy-feely with everyone. She seemed to be having the best time at the party."

Meanwhile, while Harry was instead in Canada, promoting 2025's Invictus Games, Markle didn't seemed she was missing her man.

An insider revealed: "She didn't mention him. It was a bit 'Harry, who?" The night was all about her."

The famous couple's last joint public appearance in three months was the release of a video highlighting Archewell Foundation's commitment to children's online safety, and that is not good news according to royal expert Phil Dampier.
