Last month, Meghan teased her new lifestyle brand on Instagram, revealing a new logo and a website with a waiting list. However, the official launch date is yet to be confirmed, reports the Express.

American Riviera Orchard will offer a range of unique items, including dog shampoo, chicken feed and yoga bolsters. Meghan's second series promises to give viewers an unprecedented look into the world of professional polo.
