But the brand has continued to be dogged by controversy, after the mayor of a small Majorcan town has accused Meg of “plagiarism” over similarities between her logo and their 14th century coat of arms.

Speaking to People Magazine, the 43-year-old admitted that things hadn't been plain sailing.

She said: "There are tons of twists and turns — even with the name. I was figuring it out in real time."

She added: "I appreciate everyone who gave me the grace to make mistakes and figure it out and also to be forgiving with myself through that.

"It’s a learning curve."

The mayor of Porreres in Majorca said she is considering legal action over Meg's copycat mistake.

In the same interview, Meghan was asked if she considered herself a "tradwife".

She said: "I like being able to do a hybrid."

The Duchess claims she likes to let her hair down by ordering in a Chinese but said she likes to add some finishing touches.

"Even when I get takeout, I will try to plate it beautifully," she added.

Meghan’s Princess Diana act is HUGE attention-grabbing stunt days before Netflix show

Meghan's rebrand As Ever coincides with the release of her new Netflix show named With Love, Meghan.

The trailer for the cooking show didn't sit too well with fans, as it was immediately branded a copycat version of Pamela Anderson's lifestyle show - similarly named Cooking With Love.

Both shows have almost indistinguishable themes, shots, language and behaviours including almost identical opening sequences.

The hosts both walk into the garden, look at the plants before waving to the chefs and their loved ones to join them in the kitchen.

Royal expert Hugo Vickers claimed while it's difficult to get different shots and themes in similar style shows, the production team should have done their "due diligence."

Other copycat accusations were in reference to the iconic purple jumper Meghan was wearing during the announcement of As Ever.

She appeared to be sporting the same Northwestern sweatshirt Princess Diana was wearing when she was snapped wearing bike shorts and trousers.

During the interview with People Meghan further lifted the lid on her luxury Montecito lifestyle, sharing a tender moment between her and five-year-old Prince Archie.

In a sweet conversation with her son, Archie told Meghan: "Mama, don't work so hard."
