Meghan Markle has seemingly moved to tears after her lifestyle brand suffered another huge setback.
As per Express.co.uk, the Duchess of Sussex might have to change the name of her lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard after it was denied use of the name by officials of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
The source cliamed this shocking update has left Meghan and her team into a "spin."
An insider shared, "The team are thinking of backups as we speak just in case."
"They've been put into a bit of a last-minute spin but they're not too worried because they are aware that Kim K also changed her brand name after launch and it still did amazingly well," the report stated.
Moreover, the source warned that the name change will be a "rather costly measure" for Meghan at this "late stage due to all the branding, but it won't be the end of the world."
For the unversed, the former Suits actress announced her new business venture in March 2024 with a social media comeback. In February, she filed a trademark for the name "American Riviera Orchard."
The "American Riviera" trademark was rejected because it's a common nickname for the Santa Barbara area and is already a household term, making it difficult to trademark.
the USPTO said in a statement, "Registration is refused because the applied-for mark is primarily geographically descriptive."
