Meghan Markle is "furious" over King Charles' latest product launch and is hoping to confront him , according to a source.
Earlier this year, Meghan soft-launched her new lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard and has teased fans with a sneak peek of some of the products she will be selling, including homeware and jams. While the official date for the full-scale launch is yet to be announced, Meghan's recent promotions have been overshadowed by the King's newest product - his organic Highgrove Royal Estate Honey .
A source has claimed Meghan views the King's new product launch as "no coincidence" and wants to confront her father-in-law. However, her husband Prince Harry is "holding her back".

"She is trying to establish herself as a lifestyle mogul but now she's competing with a royal rival," the source told New Idea magazine . The King has also launched a new men's cologne, Highgrove Splash, which has reportedly left Meghan feeling sidelined as she had plans to create her own line of men's grooming products.
The source claimed: "She had no idea [about this] and now suddenly, as she sees it, there's a glut of his products on the market. She's one step away from calling Charles about the clash but Prince Harry is holding her back."
They also claimed Meghan is "convinced" that Charles' latest offerings are a "deliberate attempt to curb her success". Despite the rivalry, it's previously been claimed the Duchess of Sussex is hoping the Royal Family will support her new business.
