Meghan Markle’s As Ever candle savaged as ‘cheap and tacky’ as it arrives with major fault

Meghan Markle has been slammed by a political commentator after one of her new As Ever candles arrived without a wick on it. Political commentator Link Lauren ordered the candle, which was part of the As Ever holiday collection, to review on the show Spot On with Link Lauren.

However, while unboxing the video on the show, the candle appeared to be wickless, meaning it could not be lit. This was a shock for Link, who spent almost £50 ($64 US dollars) on the candle.

Speaking to Express.co.uk, Link said: “The candle was reflective of Meghan Markle: cheap and tacky with nothing on the inside.”

Link continued: “I was genuinely shocked. I’m no Markle fan as my viewers know, but I was reviewing her products in a completely objective way.

“The universe has a sense of humor. How did I of all people get the candle with no wick!? Hilarious.”

The political commentator also shared a photograph of the wickless candle on X, telling followers: “I got Markled! I unboxed Meghan Markle’s new $65 candle on my show today. There’s no wick!

“Kind of a metaphor for her career. Nothing’s lighting.”

As Ever have been approached for comment by Express.co.uk.

Meghan, 44, launched the brand earlier this year and sells a range of products from wines to preserves.

Prince Harry, 41, is believed to be supportive of his wife’s business ventures.
