The duchess told the New York Times in a new interview that she chooses to support designers with whom she has strong ties as well as smaller upcoming brands.

Meghan said: said: "Times where I know there is a global spotlight, and attention will be given to each detail of what I may or may not be wearing, then I support designers that I have really great friendships with, and smaller, up-and-coming brands that haven’t gotten the attention that they should be getting.

"That’s one of the most powerful things that I’m able to do, and that’s simply wearing, like, an earring."

She added: "I spend a lot of time just Googling, looking for brands.

Earlier this week, a source close to Meghan Markle dismissed reports that the Duchess of Sussex is scrambling to appoint a new CEO amid a delay in launching products for her new lifestyle brand.

The Duchess of Sussex's American Riviera Orchard brand was launched earlier this year, but so far, no products have been put on sale.

As of yet, nothing has been released to the public two-thirds of the way through 2024.

The Duchess of Sussex has yet to find a CEO suitable for the position, with a source telling Closer this is due to the couple's demanding style of management.

However, a source close to the Sussexes has dismissed this claim, telling US outlet People that Meghan has been busy working behind the scenes to prepare for the later this year.
