Meghan Markle Trademark
As the TikTok video explains, Markle’s lifestyle brand is experiencing difficulties getting approved for a trademark after the application was reportedly rejected. Allegedly, the document gives Markle a 3-month deadline to address issues raised by the office.
If she fails to do so, it may result in the abandonment of her trademark application. This has been considered a setback in her entrepreneurial efforts. Allegedly, she needs to “amend the identification” of goods to comply with multiple class application rules, and “disclaim the descriptive nature of the word Riviera.”
As well, the TikTok video also points out that the application was deemed “geographically descriptive” which can limit the ability to use similar terms for their products.
She is also allegedly not having any luck hiring a chief executive for American Riviera Orchard- it is unclear why this is supposedly so.
Meghan Markle rebrand?
What do you think about the alleged claims – will Meghan Markle have to rebrand? It is unclear at the moment but it seems as though these concerns need to be addressed in order for the trademark to move to the next step in the process.
As of right now, it seems as though there are no products available for public purchase.
