Eagle-eyed fans spot blunder in Meghan Markle's latest Instagram post promoting As Ever brand
Published: Invalid Date,
EAGLE-eyed royal fans have spotted a surprising blunder in Meghan Markle's latest Instagram post – despite the Duchess of Sussex being praised for her 'attention to detail'.
The photo, posted on the official Instagram page of her lifestyle brand As Ever, appears to be a heartfelt thank-you to followers.

But the image, believed to be taken in Meghan's kitchen in Montecito, California, seems to have accidentally revealed more than intended.
At first glance, the post looks polished and charming.
A handwritten note sits neatly in the centre of the picture on a marble worktop, reading: 'You're beautiful. Full stop.'
The note is surrounded by sprigs of thyme, two eggs, a rolling pin and scattered flour, with Meghan's hand peeking into the bottom left corner of the image.
However, fans quickly noticed something that seemed out of place – a small black mouse cursor just above Meghan's hand on the left edge of the picture.
The digital slip suggests the image may have been taken as a screen grab, rather than a fresh photograph.
Followers took to social media to comment on the tiny detail.
One user posted on Twitter: 'Eagle eye right there.'
Another wrote: 'I didn't even notice that, well spotted,' as the image gained attention online.
Others were excited to simply catch a glimpse behind the scenes of the Duchess's latest project – a lifestyle venture that's seen a wave of success since launching earlier this year.
The cursor blunder has drawn comparisons to another royal photo mishap.
Last year, the Princess of Wales came under fire for edits made to an official family photo, sparking widespread speculation and criticism.
Now, Meghan's oversight has led some to call this her own 'take two' moment.
It follows another incident at the start of the year when Meghan made her long-awaited return to social media.
On New Year's Day, she posted a video of herself barefoot on the beach, writing '2025' in the sand.
But sharp-eyed viewers spotted an earlier attempt already written nearby – suggesting the scene may have required a few takes.
One follower quipped: 'Wonder how many it took to get the perfect shot?' while others noticed multiple footprints in the background that hinted at previous runs.
This week's Instagram post came as Meghan launched three new items under her As Ever brand – a Napa Valley rosé wine, an apricot spread, and a limited-edition orange blossom honey.
In her caption, she wrote: 'It's true. From our hearts to your homes, thank you for being here. You're the sweetest part of what we do!'
The new wine is Meghan's first move into the drinks market, described by the brand as having 'soft notes of stone fruit, gentle minerality and a lasting finish'.
The 2023 rosé will be available to buy from 1 July, just in time for summer.
The new honey – priced at £21 – is said to have a 'beautiful golden hue' and 'delicate floral notes with subtle citrus undertones'.
It sold out quickly, along with the apricot spread, which comes in either a keepsake jar (£10) or a standard pot (£7).
The brand also brought back several items from its first collection, including raspberry spread, herbal teas, flower sprinkles and shortbread cookie mix.
Most of the original items sold out within an hour of launch.
Meghan originally announced the brand earlier this year under the name American Riviera Orchard, but changed it after a trademark dispute.
Explaining the name switch, she said: 'Last year, I had thought, 'American Riviera', that sounds like such a great name… but it limited me to things that were just manufactured and grown in this area.'
She added: 'As Ever essentially means as it's always been… If you've followed me since 2014 with The Tig, you know I've always loved cooking and crafting and gardening — this is what I do.'
Now, as her followers continue to grow – with her personal account @meghan already boasting over 3.9 million – every post she shares is under the spotlight.
And as this latest image proves, no detail, however small, escapes notice.

Kelsey Parker announces her baby has died
Parker revealed she was expecting her third child in January, and on Sunday shared an Instagram post with the news that her son was 'born sleeping'. She lost her husband, The Wanted star Tom Parker, in 2022 after he was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour, and the baby was her first with her new partner Will Lindsay. Parker, who is mother to Aurelia, five, and Bodhi, four, with the late singer, shared a poem on Instagram about the boy she was expecting, whom she and Lindsay had named Phoenix. 'For Phoenix, Born Sleeping, Forever Loved,' the poem began, with a caption: 'Phoenix Parker-Lindsay, you will forever be loved.' A post shared by Kelsey Parker (@being_kelsey) After sharing the post, Parker also put up an Instagram story which read: 'Before I receive an influx of lovely messages and heart-felt well wishes, I want to just say that I truly appreciate everything you are all going to say and share. 'But with the news being so raw, I would really like to ensure that we as a family are given space and time to process this devastating and earth-shattering news. 'I love you all and thank you for your understanding and space. 'Love always, Kelsey, Will and The Parker Family.' Parker has previously spoken candidly about how trolls have made her feel guilty for having a new partner. She said in March: 'I'm always going to have guilt but what's so hard is that Tom's not here any more, so what do people want me to do? 'Our house was full of so much sadness but now it's full of happiness, the kids deserve that more than anything.' Following her husband's death, Parker has raised money for a brain tumour charity by organising annual charity football matches in his memory. The 34-year-old hosts a podcast with model Georgia Jones called Mum's the Word! where the pair share parenting advice with celebrity guests.
