Meghan Markle's eagle-eyed fans spot 'mortifying blunder' in Instagram post
Meghan Markle's latest Instagram post from her brand As Ever was questioned by fans after they pointed out a small blunder as Meghan thanked her followers for 'being here'
Eagle-eyed fans have pointed out a surprising blunder in Meghan Markle's latest Instagram post from her brand As Ever, as she thanks her followers for their support. The picture is of a kitchen counter top with a small note which reads 'You're beautiful. Full stop' in handwriting.
Meghan captioned the post: 'It's true. From our hearts to your homes: thank you for being here. You're the sweetest part of what we do!' The note is placed candidly on the table along with a rolling pin, two eggs, scattered flour and what is believed to be Meghan's left hand in the corner.
However, fans believe the image may not have been taken in her home and may be a screen grab due to a small black and white cursor at the left-hand side of the screen.
Followers took to social media to point out the blunder as one person said: 'Eagle eye right there', leading to many other comments. Another added: 'I didn't even notice that, well spotted'. The comments section has since been turned off on Instagram.
The brand sells an array of products, including cookie mix and spreads. According to their website: 'As ever is more than a brand - it's a love language. Created by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, As ever welcomes you to a collection of products, each inspired by her long-lasting love of cooking, entertaining, and hostessing with ease. This curated collection has been crafted to elevate your everyday and inspire moments of joy.'
The Instagram cursor blunder has drawn attention to other social media mishaps where Meghan came under fire.
Fans pointed out a similar situation at the beginning of the year when Meghan made her long-awaited return to social media with a video of herself writing '2025' in the sand.
It didn't take long for some viewers to point out a previous attempt in the sand and suggest that the video wasn't as candid as it looked, but rather took a few takes. One follower penned: 'Wonder how many it took to get the perfect shot?'.
Meghan originally announced the brand earlier this year and shared its name with her fans and followers. She initially called the brand American Riviera Orchard, however, she swiftly changed the name for reasons she explained online.
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.'

Bob Vylan dropped by talent agency - as BBC expresses 'regret' over streaming of Glastonbury performance
The BBC has said it regrets not pulling the live stream of Bob Vylan's "unacceptable" Glastonbury set - as Ofcom said the broadcaster had "questions to answer". The corporation has faced mounting criticism over airing the performance on Glastonbury 's West Holts Stage, during which the rap-punk duo's frontman Bobby Vylan led chants of, "free, free Palestine", and "death, death to the IDF [Israel Defence Forces]". Sir Keir Starmer condemned the remarks as "appalling hate speech", while festival organiser Emily Eavis said they "crossed a line" - and media watchdog Ofcom has now also released a statement raising concerns. On Monday morning, a spokesperson for the prime minister did not directly answer when asked if he still had confidence in BBC director-general Tim Davie. Sky News understands the band have since been dropped by representatives United Talent Agency. 2:32 During Bob Vylan's set on Saturday, they performed in front of a screen that showed several messages, including one that said Israel's actions in Gaza amount to "genocide". Footage from the performance shows some of the crowd joining in with the chants. Amid criticism afterwards, the BBC said there had been a warning on screen about potential "strong and discriminatory language", but described the comments as "deeply offensive". On Monday, a spokesperson released an updated statement, saying the comments were antisemitic and the performance should have been taken off air. "The BBC respects freedom of expression but stands firmly against incitement to violence," the statement said. "The antisemitic sentiments expressed by Bob Vylan were utterly unacceptable and have no place on our airwaves. We welcome Glastonbury's condemnation of the performance." A judgement to issue a warning on screen while streaming online was in line with editorial guidelines, the spokesperson added, and the performance has not been made available to view on demand. "The team were dealing with a live situation but with hindsight we should have pulled the stream during the performance. We regret this did not happen. "In light of this weekend, we will look at our guidance around live events so we can be sure teams are clear on when it is acceptable to keep output on air." Ofcom's reaction An Ofcom spokesperson said: "We are very concerned about the live stream of this performance, and the BBC clearly has questions to answer. "We have been speaking to the BBC over the weekend and we are obtaining further information as a matter of urgency, including what procedures were in place to ensure compliance with its own editorial guidelines." In a statement shared on Instagram on Sunday, Bobby Vylan said: "Teaching our children to speak up for the change they want and need is the only way that we make this world a better place. "As we grow older and our fire starts to possibly dim under the suffocation of adult life and all its responsibilities, it is incredibly important that we encourage and inspire future generations to pick up the torch that was passed to us." The latest developments follows severe condemnation from the prime minister, who said there was "no excuse for this kind of appalling hate speech". Sir Keir also referenced a previous statement that Belfast rap group Kneecap, who were on stage after Bob Vylan, should have been removed from the line-up after one member was charged with a terrorism offence. "I said that Kneecap should not be given a platform and that goes for any other performers making threats or inciting violence," he said. Ms Eavis, whose father Michael co-founded the festival, said in a statement that Bob Vylan had "very much crossed a line". She added: "Their chants very much crossed a line and we are urgently reminding everyone involved in the production of the festival that there is no place at Glastonbury for antisemitism, hate speech or incitement to violence." The Israeli embassy posted on X in the hours after the set, saying it was "deeply disturbed by the inflammatory and hateful rhetoric". It said the slogan used "advocates for the dismantling of the State of Israel". In a separate post on X on Sunday, Israel's foreign ministry published graphic footage following the attack by Hamas on the Nova festival in Israel on 7 October 2023, and the Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) said it would be formally complaining to the BBC over its "outrageous decision" to broadcast the performance. Speaking to Sky News' Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips on behalf of the government, Health Secretary Wes Streeting described the chant as "appalling", especially at a music festival - "when there were Israelis at a similar music festival who were kidnapped, murdered, raped, and in some cases still held captive". He added that while "there's no justification for inciting violence against Israelis... the way in which Israel's conducting this war has made it extremely difficult for Israel's allies around the world to stand by and justify". Lucy McMullin, who was in the crowd for Bob Vylan, told Sky News: "When there's children and civilians being murdered and starved, then I think it's important that people are speaking out on these issues. "However, inciting more death and violence is not the way to do it." Police have said they are reviewing footage of both the Bob Vylan and Kneecap sets to assess whether any criminal offences were committed. Speaking to Sky News, women and equalities minister Baroness Jacqui Smith said the comments "clearly" over-stepped the mark.
