Ryan Reynolds has lampooned Meghan Markle in a joke with Conan O'Brien about her being a 'middleman for jars of jam', MailOnline can reveal today.

The Hollywood A-Lister took aim at the Duchess of Sussex and her new brand As Ever in the latest brutal gag at her expense.

The 48-year-old actor, who has been embroiled in Blake Lively's legal battle with Justin Baldoni, was a guest on Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend podcast.

Reynolds discussed his early career and his regrets - but did not mention his wife or the ongoing legal drama over It Ends With Us.

In an interview laden with gags, Ryan joked at Meghan's expense as he spoke with Conan about his father Jimmy.
