About this listen

Meghan Markle is facing online ridicule after posting a promotional clip for her As Ever tea that critics claim looked “unhygienic.” The Instagram Story showed hot water being poured into a pink heart-shaped mug, but viewers fixated on what appeared to be stained white tile beneath it. Social media users piled on, joking about “bathroom floors” and “bacteria adding flavor.”

Meanwhile, Prince Harry is set to deliver a paid speech at the International Association of Privacy Professionals Global Summit 2026, where he will discuss digital responsibility and cybersecurity. According to reports, he will receive $50,000 — far below the reported $1 million per speech he once sought after stepping back from royal duties. One insider said the Sussex brand “doesn’t carry the same weight anymore.”
