About this listen

 Prince Harry reportedly believes he and Meghan Markle still have an important role to play helping the monarchy connect with audiences around the world, particularly at a time when the institution faces renewed scrutiny following the Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor controversy.At the same time, Meghan’s lifestyle brand As Ever is facing criticism from customers after complaints about product quality,

including candles arriving without wicks and fruit spreads described as too runny.Marketing experts say the solution may be simple: improve the product and let positive customer experiences reshape the online conversation.

Columnists are also debating Meghan’s upcoming appearance at a luxury women’s retreat in Australia, with some critics comparing the event to a paid meet-and-greet while supporters argue the duchess is proving herself a savvy businesswoman.Plus, Meghan makes a quiet visit to Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, and a documentary executive produced by the Sussexes, Cookie Queens, secures theatrical distribution in the United States.
