In addition to a cameo from the Duke of Sussex, the former actress, 43, welcomed special guests, including Roy Choi, Mindy Kaling and Alice Waters.

Markle soft-launched her company in March 2024 when she gifted jars of homemade jam to several A-list pals, including Kris Jenner and Chrissy Teigen.

The duchess, meanwhile, has been busy assisting those impacted by the Los Angeles wildfires this past week.

On Friday, she and Harry, 40, stepped out to lend a helping hand at the Pasadena Convention Center.

The couple thanked Los Angeles first responders for their service and greeted caterers providing food to the wildfire victims.

While there, they also passed out meals to residents who had been displaced.

Harry even went out of his way to get a donut for a bedridden man, Pasadena Mayor Victor Gordo told the Pasadena Star.
