It is a divorce between the streaming giant Spotify and the rebel prince Harry and his wife Meghan . A contractual separation that closes a lucrative deal that had guaranteed the Dukes about 20 million dollars, according to media estimates.

“Spotify and Archewell Audio have mutually agreed to part ways and are proud of the series they have created together,” reads the joint statement with the Swedish company.

The collaboration with the well-known streaming service, which began in 2020 through the Archewell media company founded by the dukes, was limited to the Archetypes interview podcast, hosted by Meghan, which saw famous women as guests in the 12 episodes such as Serena Williams, Mariah Carey and Mindy Kaling.

According to the Times, however, Spotify would have chosen not to renew the contract: the royals had not produced enough content to receive the full compensation established by the agreement. While for another source Harry and Meghan wanted to move away from the exclusive distribution of the Swedish giant and find a new partner for their audio projects.

In recent weeks, the couple has had to face several ups and downs, from the slap suffered by the second son of King Charles III in court in London after his appeal against the Home Office to pay himself a police escort during visits to the United Kingdom, reporting the risk of an alleged "almost catastrophic" accident for the Sussexes in New York , later greatly reduced by American sources.

To all this are added the insistent rumors of a phantom divorce and a progressive estrangement of the two, increasingly concentrated in separate activities.
