Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has taken a bold step into the podcasting arena, releasing a new photo wearing Princess Diana’s watch to accompany the announcement of her latest venture.
The timing coincides with the launch of the couple’s new website, Sussex.com, signaling a new chapter for the royal duo.
Meghan’s Podcasting Endeavor
Expressing her joy, Meghan revealed her collaboration with the female-founded US podcast network, Lemonada Media. The partnership aims to tackle topics around sex, grief, and LGBTQ issues, with a mission to “make life suck less.”
This move follows the conclusion of the couple’s £18 million Spotify deal last year, making Lemonada Media the new platform for Meghan’s podcast series, including the re-release of her previous series, Archetypes.
A Stylish Announcement
Meghan’s announcement on Sussex.com was accompanied by a portrait taken by her friend Misan Harriman.
In the photo, she donned a £310 Totem grey dress and a gold Cartier watch, once belonging to Princess Diana, emphasizing a connection to the royal legacy.
The Duchess paired it with a £5,000 Cartier Love bracelet, a gift from Prince Harry, completing a stylish and poignant ensemble.
A Glimpse of the Podcast
Meghan, hinting at future projects, expressed her eagerness to kick off 2024 with this fantastic opportunity.
The Duchess also shared her excitement about the upcoming podcast, promising a dynamic and thought-provoking series that she can’t wait to share with her audience.
Lemonada Media Partnership
Lemonada Media, founded in 2019 by Jessica Cordova Kramer and Stephanie Wittels Wachs, has become Meghan’s chosen platform for podcasting.
The duo expressed their enthusiasm for working with Meghan, praising her collaborative spirit, clear vision, and commitment to building compassion and community through her work.
Archetypes Reimagined
The re-release of Archetypes, Meghan’s previous series, is part of the new deal. Lemonada Media, known for producing shows on sensitive topics, will oversee ad sales and distribution.
Archetypes, which garnered one million listens per episode, will now reach a broader audience on various audio platforms.
Lemonada’s Mission and Popular Shows
Lemonada Media, founded on the mission to make difficult topics more accessible, has garnered success with shows like Wiser Than Me with Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Being Trans, and Raised by Ricki.
Their dedication to addressing complex issues aligns with Meghan’s approach to creating meaningful content.
