Meghan Markle rang in her 44th birthday on August 4 with a warm tribute from her lifestyle brand As Ever—and a surprise for fans of her signature rosé.
Meghan Markle Receives Heartfelt Birthday Tribute from ‘As Ever’
The Duchess of Sussex was celebrated with a gorgeous black-and-white photo shared on As Ever’s Instagram account, where she’s seen smiling outdoors in a sundress and straw hat.
The caption read, “Celebrating the woman behind it all. She pours her heart, vision & magic touch into every detail, and today, we raise a glass to her! Happy birthday to our founder @meghan.”
Fans and royal-watchers weren’t able to share in the sentiment, as both the brand and Meghan currently have the comments disabled on their respective Instagram accounts.
Rosé Restock Arrives Following Sold-Out Launch
Along with the photo tribute, As Ever announced that its 2024 Napa Valley Rosé would be restocked the day after Meghan’s birthday. The rosé, which originally debuted on June 20, quickly sold out during its first release.
In an email to subscribers, the brand wrote, “Today, our founder celebrates another year (Happy Birthday, Meghan!) and tomorrow, we’re raising a glass to celebrate our newest release!”
The message continued, “We are thrilled to share that our 2024 Napa Valley Rosé is available tomorrow, Tuesday August 5 at 12 PM PT / 3 PM ET. Harvested under the California sun, this dazzling vintage embodies everything we love – it’s where timeless elegance meets the spirit of summer.”
It also teased additional product restocks, saying, “We’ve worked thoughtfully to bring these exceptional bottles to you, and more of your other favorite As Ever products are also being restocked shortly. There is so much to celebrate, and we’re honored to share these special moments with you.”
A second photo in the brand’s newsletter showed the 2024 Napa Valley Rosé bottle served on a silver platter with accompanying glasses.
As Ever’s previous rosé—a 2023 Napa Valley vintage—sold out in less than an hour when it launched on July 1. The brand first debuted in April with a collection of shelf-stable goods, including herbal teas, shortbread cookie mix, and floral sprinkles.
In an exclusive interview with People earlier this year, Markle discussed her role at the company, saying, “I see myself as an entrepreneur and a female founder, and if the brand ends up influential, then that’s great.”
The celebration marks another milestone for the duchess, whose efforts to build As Ever into a lifestyle powerhouse appear to be a huge success with customers and fans alike.
