As Christmas nears, the festive season has sparked a intriguing royal showdown. Meghan Markle's $148 advent calendar has been met with surprising competition from Buckingham Palace. The news comes days after Markle expanded her lifestyle brand, As Ever, with the limited-edition holiday countdown box inspired by her Montecito home.
Buckingham Palace has entered the Advent calendar market with a product priced far below Meghan Markle's $148 version.
As reported by the Daily Express, the calendar is available now from the Royal Collection Trust. It claims to "capture the magic of the festive season" across three royal residences, including Windsor Castle and the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Priced at only £12 ($15.87), the calendar offers 24 milk chocolates, the same count as Markle's luxury edition.
The artwork for the royal chocolate Advent calendar shows a richly adorned Christmas tree finished with a crown ornament, accompanied by a pair of Union Jacks. The illustration also features ceremonial guards who "stand watch at these iconic locations."
The Palace has also released an empty, fill-it-yourself version, which displays a winter illustration of its London residence on a white box. The design is fully customizable, allowing buyers to place their own treats behind each of the 24 doors.
