All round
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s multi-million dollar deal with Spotify has been surrounded by controversy since Harry’s remarks during his infamous Oprah interview.
In the interview, Harry downplayed the significance of the Spotify and Netflix deals, implying that he was forced into signing them due to financial constraints.
These comments left Spotify executives feeling far from impressed, as they likely expected a higher level of dedication and professionalism from the couple.
Richard Eden, the diary editor at the Daily Mail, dismissed the notion that producing a podcast can be approached casually, suggesting that Spotify executives would have expected meticulous planning and hard work.
Rebecca English, the royal editor at the Daily Mail, emphasized that while the couple may have intended to create meaningful content centered around the causes they care about, the public’s fascination lies predominantly in their raw connections.
English cast doubts on the marketability of their chosen content, bluntly stating that what truly sells is the insight into their lives as royals.

The sudden and dramatic end to the Spotify partnership with only one lacklustre podcast series release titled Archetypes further added fuel to the fire.
Reports emerged claiming that the Archewel Media Company founded by Harry and Meghan failed to produce enough content to fulfill the terms of the $20 million deal.
This revelation supports the notion that the partnership did not meet Spotify’s expectations, ultimately leading to its premature demise.
To make matters worse, sports writer and podcaster Bill Simmons openly criticized the couple, referring to them as “effing grifters,” in the aftermath of the shattered deal.
Simmons’ scathing comments highlight the negative sentiment that surrounded the couple’s reputation within the industry.
Additionally, a recent report alleged that some interviews for Meghan’s Archetypes podcast were conducted by members of her staff, with their voice later added in post-production.
This revelation raises questions about the authenticity and integrity of the content, further eroding the credibility of the partnership.
Overall, the controversy surrounding the Spotify deal exposes the true sentiments behind Prince Harry’s remarks during his Oprah interview.
The lack of commitment and enthusiasm towards the partnership likely left Spotify executives feeling far from impressed, ultimately leading to its premature demise.
While the couple may have intended to create meaningful content centered around the causes they care about, the public’s fascination lies predominantly in their raw connections, casting doubts on the marketability of their chosen content.
The negative sentiment surrounding the couple’s reputation within the industry only adds to the controversy.
