Meghan Markle is faced with another delay for another one of her projects this year, reports have claimed.
The Duchess of Sussex was expected to have a busy start to the year focusing on different projects like her Netflix show With Love, Meghan, her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard and her new podcast series.
But following the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles, Meghan announced that her Netflix show would be postponed until March 4, instead of airing on January 15, and now it appears that her podcast series is facing a delay too.
Last February, Meghan signed a new deal with Lemonada Media for a new podcast series after parting ways with Spotify.
It was understood that Meghan would host a new podcast show herself and that Lemonada Media would also distribute her previous series, Archetypes, to all its podcast platforms.
No further updates have been issued since then, except earlier this month, when the company made a new post on Instagram teasing new content.
But while no official date was announced for Meghan’s podcast show, Lemonada Media’s post raised hopes that the duchess’s new show would be due to launch soon.
However, according to Hello! magazine, this does not seem to be the case, as her podcast episodes have allegedly also been pushed back due to the LA fires.
The outlet wrote: “HELLO! understands that a series of new podcast episodes from Meghan has also been pushed back as a result.”
It comes at a challenging time for Meghan, who has recently been faced with public scrutiny after Vanity Fair published a cover story with a number of bombshell claims about her and Prince Harry.
The article cited sources who were critical of the couple’s move to Montecito, labelling them “local villains”, while fresh allegations about Meghan’s behaviour towards staff emerged, claiming that she forced some former staff members into “therapy”.
The Duke and Duchess declined to comment on the Vanity Fair story, but sources close to them claimed to the Times they find the claims “distressing”.
