Ryan Reynolds and Conan O’Brien are as funny as ever.
The actor, 48, appeared on the 62-year-old comedian’s “Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend” podcast” on Tuesday, where they playfully poked fun at Meghan Markle being a “middleman for jars of jam.”
The Duchess of Sussex’s lifestyle brand, As Ever, which launched in April, is a collection of jams, tea, honey, baking mixes and other home products.
During Reynolds and O’Brien’s conversation, the duo touched on the “Dead Pool” star growing up with his dad Jimmy, who became a “food broker.” Reynolds teased that he thought that meant his dad was a CIA agent before he told his son it meant he was a “middleman for jars of jam.”
O’Brien couldn’t hold back laughter, responding, “What? He works for Meghan Markle?” before putting on a deep, sinister voice and stating: “Tiny jams. Harvestable jams. Made from the oils of Montecito.”
“If Jimbo Reynolds wasn’t dead, I’d say he is Meghan Markle,” said Reynolds, before quickly adding, “Well, adjacent.”
Added O’Brien, “Many people have likened the two!”
In April, Markle, 43, took to social media to celebrate the long-awaited launch of As Ever after multiple delays and a name change from American Riviera Orchard.
The royal posted a series of photos showing her cooking with her brand’s jams and preserves.
“We’re live! Come shop the As ever collection I’ve poured so much love into. So excited to share this with you 💫 ,” Markle wrote on Instagram at the time.
Shortly after the launch went live, all of the products – including the jams that she had sent exclusively to 50 of her friends last year – had sold out.
“Our shelves may be empty, but my heart is full! We sold out in less than one hour and I can’t thank you enough…for celebrating, purchasing, sharing, and believing,” the official Instagram account of As Ever wrote.
The night before the major launch, Markle took to Instagram to thank those who helped her dreams come to fruition.
“Before our launch for @aseverofficial tomorrow, I can’t go to sleep without giving a huge thanks to the fellas who have been with me on every creative endeavor for over a decade+,” she captioned a photo of herself and the crew. “We know I love my girl squad, but these boys have been part of my team for what feels like forever @jakerosenberg @danielmartin @madebyarticle.”
The podcast host sweetly concluded, “You have supported and believed in my creative vision since The Tig, and here we are all these years later creating magic in a different way. Thank you for being the best partners through thick and thin. My heart feels so full. Dream team As ever 💫.”
As Ever’s launch comes on the heels of Markle’s show “With Love, Meghan” premiering on Netflix in March. The eight-episode series followed the Duchess of Sussex, showcasing her cooking and gardening skills.
The series had a slew of special guests, including Mindy Kaling, and Markle’s husband of seven years, Prince Harry, had a small cameo.
Shortly after “With Love, Meghan” launched, Netflix renewed the show for a second season.
Markle also announced the news on Instagram that same day.
“Oh, how I love ASMR!,” she captioned a video featuring clips from the episodes. “If you’re loving Season 1, just wait until you see the fun we cooked up on Season 2!”
Markle gushed, “Thanks for joining the party, and an endless thanks to the amazing team and crew who helped bring it all to life! @netflix.”
