Meghan Markle's nephew 'grows new marijuana strain named after Archie'

A relative of Meghan Markle has found a novel new way of honouring the Duchess's baby son - by naming a strain of cannabis after him.

Tyler Dooley, who runs a 1,000 acre cannabis farm in Oregon, said his famous aunt has made him "a lot of money".

A new line introduced by the 27-year-old - son of Meghan's half-brother Thomas - is called "Archie Sparkie".

He has already found fame after another product called "Markle Sparkle", and estimates his business has an "expected revenue" of $200 million a year.

He also plans to build a castle on his farm with bricks made from hemp - which he says is in honour of baby Archie.

Dooley, who runs a business named Blue Line Hemp, told the Mail on Sunday : "People have always called me the black sheep of the family but I've been working my **** off to make a living in a very competitive business.

"Markle Sparkle made headlines and made me a lot of money."

The farmer lashed out at the Duchess, saying his farm is organic and sustainable, while Meghan and Harry jet around the world.

"I think we're doing more for the planet than my aunt Meghan is," he said.
