Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have been living a new kind of life in the United States since they cut their royal ties back in 2020. Ever since moving here, the two have had a number of business ventures and projects, but not everything has gone according to plan.

Meghan’s podcast, Archetypes, wasn’t as successful as was initially thought, and she ended up parting ways with Spotify in 2023. But now, she’s onto the next version of her podcast, and some think she’s looking toward one famous friend to help her out.

Meghan Markle’s new podcast will reportedly contain interviews with celebrities

Meghan Markle’s Archetypes spent time discussing the various stereotypes that plague women; she had famous women on the show, and her new podcast with Lemonada Media will likely be a similar version to the work she previously did. However, now that her first podcast wasn’t as successful as was anticipated, there is a little more pressure on the duchess to deliver this time around. And one expert thinks she’s looking to a famous friend to help her out: actor Priyanka Chopra.

PR expert Kayley Cornelius told Express, “Initially, we might expect her to call in favors from her remaining friends and work through their networks.” Cornelius continued, “For instance, long-term friend Priyanka Chopra, who did not feature on ‘Archetypes,’ could be among the first names Meghan considers.”

Priyanka Chopra is a famous actor; she also happens to be married to famous musician Nick Jonas. Priyanka and Meghan have been friends for years. “Other potential guests could include friends from her ‘Suits’ days, such as Abigail Spencer and Wendell Pierce, who likely remain accessible points of contact for Meghan,” Cornelius said.

Meghan Markle’s new podcast is just one of several business ventures

Harry and Meghan have been busy finding their footing ever since relocating to the United States in 2020. The two have dabbled in all kinds of fields, from public speaking to charitable work, documentaries, books, and even Meghan’s new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard. Although Harry and Meghan have found success in a number of projects, it still remains a bit unclear what their actual brand is.

The relaunch of Meghan’s podcast could be a good way for her to nail down a greater identity for her brand, but of course, that is contingent on its success. It’s unclear yet what kind of guests she will have on her show, though people likely wouldn’t be surprised to see longtime friends like Priyanka make an appearance.
