Trevor Noah Signs Non-Exclusive Podcast Deal With Spotify

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are ready to move forward after their Spotify deal fell through — but they aren’t too pleased with how news broke of their exit from the platform.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Netflix deal has been confirmed to be continuing despite speculation it might follow the same fate as their Spotify deal which was axed last week.

Meghan Markle's talent was called into question by United Talent Agency (UTA) CEO Jeremy Zimmer during an interview last week.

"Turns out Meghan Markle was not a great audio talent, or necessarily any kind of talent," Zimmer told global news website Semafor when asked about the podcast cancelation at the 2023 Cannes Lions advertising festival in Cannes, France.

And they have delivered a number of projects.
