The frustrated plans of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle
The Duke, 38, and the Duchess of Sussex, 41, announced they would step down from their top royal duties in January 2020, just months before the world collapsed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
They then gave an interview to Oprah Winfrey in March 2021, in which they spoke candidly about their discontent with the royal family, including a controversial claim that an anonymous member questioned Prince Archie’s skin color before he was born. A month after the interview, the Duke of Edinburgh died at the age of 99.

In August 2022, Markle launched a podcast, Archetypes, but it was overshadowed by the death of Queen Elizabeth II the following month. Despite the podcast drawing huge viewership, Spotify announced along with the Duke and Duchess in June that they would no longer work together.
A source told The New York Post at the time that the couple had not produced enough content to justify their $20 million deal. The news came on the heels of the platform cutting 200 jobs in an effort to save funds. A source then also implied that Spotify was taken aback by some of Harry’s suggestions for other podcast ideas.
