Which superstars received Meghan Markle’s first jars of jam? Some A-listers are sure to be jelly

Meghan Markle sure is sweet.

The Duchess of Sussex, 42, is gifting pots of jam to her celebrity pals ahead of the launch of her high-end lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard.

The first 50 pots of the preserve have already been sent out, with Kris Jenner, Tracee Ellis Ross and Mindy Kaling among the A-listers who received the coveted condiment.

Markle has numbered each of the limited-edition items out of 50, with Jenner nabbing jam pot 13, while Ross received pot number 21.

While the numbers aren’t a ranking per se, fans have been speculating as to who scored the first five pots, which could become collector’s items if American Riviera Orchard turns into a multi-billion dollar brand.

Only one of the first 5 recipients has been identified: philanthropist Kelly McKee Zajfen.

Zajfren is the co-founder of the non-profitAlliance of Mom, which aims to “empower” pregnant and parenting teens in foster care.

The 44-year-old — who has become close friends with Markle over the past few years — received pot 3 of 50.

On Saturday, the Daily Mail speculated that the other four people gifted the first five jars of jam are far more famous than Zajfren.

Below, a list of the stars who may have received the American Riviera Orchard jam.

Oprah Winfrey

Winfrey was one of the few American celebrities who attended Markle’s wedding to Prince Harry back in 2018.

She also conducted the infamous, explosive sit-down interview that the aggrieved Sussexes gave back in 2021.

It’s unclear how close Markle actually is with Winfrey, but given the talk show queen’s incredible influence, the savvy duchess would no doubt love an American Riviera Orchard shout out from the superstar.

Markle and Harry were last seen at a Santa Barbara fundraiser with Oprah, and a slew of other stars, including Ellen DeGeneres, in September 2023.

Ellen Degeneres

Did this comedian get the condiment?

Daily Mail theorizes that DeGeneres could also have received one of the first five jars of jam sent from Markle, given that she is another influential powerhouse who also calls Montecito home.

Markle also appeared on her chat show back in 2021.

Serena Williams

While Winfrey and DeGeneres may have only become friends with Markle’s more recently, Williams has been one of the star’s closest pals for years.

Markle first met the tennis legend while she was still starring on “Suits,” well before her wedding to Prince Harry.

The pair have been firm friends ever since, so it’s likely Markle sent her one of the American Riviera Orchard jams, but it remains to be seen what number she received.

Dora Ragland

While Markle’s mom may not be a superstar in her own right, she’s become a household name since her daughter joined the British royal family more than five years ago.

Markle and her mom are known to be super close, so it could well be that Ragland received the very first jar of jam ever made by American Riviera Orchard.
