Meghan Markle has left one superfan "completely stunned" after she gifted him a $300 As Ever gift set – despite having been vocally critical of the Princess of Wales.
The recipient, known on his social media channels as The Notorious JTB, has built a substantial online following championing the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
This afternoon, he took to X to show his gratitude to the former actress, as he shared footage of himself unboxing the unexpected delivery on Monday, describing himself as "completely stunned" by the gesture.
"I came home to a gift from Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex," he said in the post. "Come unbox it with me."
The package contained an array of products from the As Ever range, including the complete collection of scented candles, a jar of honey with honeycomb, flower sprinkles, and the recently launched limited edition matchbox.
A leather bookmark bearing the brand's name was also tucked inside the delivery.
Perhaps most notably, the gift included a handwritten note from the Duchess herself, sealed with her royal cypher featuring the letter M topped with the House of Windsor coronet.
"Dear JT, Thank you for the anniversary wishes! A few treats for you to enjoy. As ever, Meg," the note read.

JBT said he was "completely grateful" for the gift, which was "nowhere on my 2026 bingo card".
The Notorious JTB commands a considerable online audience, boasting more than 190,000 followers on Instagram and approximately 150,000 on TikTok.
His account regularly defends the Duchess against negative coverage while promoting her various ventures.
Earlier this afternoon, he posted: "Funny how some people spend years trashing Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, yet can’t stop talking about them.

"When the attacks never end, you have to wonder what truth they’re so desperate to keep buried."
The influencer has not only come to the defence of Meghan and Harry, however. Just last month, JBT reposted a tweet calling Catherine "mediocre" adding, after 20 years, the Princess of Wales "still has no identity".
Fans have been quick to point out the hypocrisy between Meghan's recent speech in Geneva, where she called on social media companies to do more to prevent online bullying and harassment.
"Does she approve of your online bullying of Catherine too?" one user asked.
Another said: "So much for those speeches about social media and bullying. And all that media talk about family reconciliation. Utilising and rewarding bullies of the Prince and Princess of Wales family?"
GB News have approached Meghan for comment.
JBT has committed a substantial amount of spending to Meghan's brand, splashing over $200 on wine alone, including purchases of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc and Napa Valley Rosé.
His most recent acquisition was the $256 Signature Scent Collection.
One commenter noted JTB's considerable spending on As Ever products, writing: "Not only do you support her online, you also buy a lot from As Ever, just what you've spent on wine alone is huge!!"
