Meghan Markle is looking at a new deal which has the power to “make or break her Hollywood dream” as a new streaming giant shows interest in the Duchess of Sussex.

She said: “Since parting ways with Spotify, she’s said to be inching closer towards signing on the dotted line for a multi-million dollar contract with Amazon’s podcast production partner, Audible.

“The new venture has the power to make or break her Hollywood dream. Word of mouth is spreading that is will lead to a huge payout even bigger than the millions Spotify splashed out and she’s thrilled to be in the company of Michelle and Barack Obama who signed a deal with them back in 2022.

“I’m still hesitant about this and whether or not Audible would want to sign something like this considering how terrible the deal with Spotify went, maybe podcasting isn’t in her future.”

Co-host Christie Ross added: “A lot of people said that the podcasting wasn’t great, there were just lots of creative differences so perhaps podcasting is not necessarily the way forward.”

It comes as an expert has claimed Meghan and Prince Harry as “far from poor” after losing their allowance from King Charles.

Writer and broadcaster Esther Krakue pointed out that after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex signed multi-million dollar deals with Spotify and Netflix since moving to LA, they are able to fund “three lifetimes”.

She told Sky News Australia: “I don’t think anyone should worry about the Sussexes being able to finance themselves. That’s what happens when you sign their massive multi-million dollar deals with powerhouses like Netflix and Spotify.

“I’m sure they have a way to fund their lifestyles for three lifetimes. to come and we also have to remember that Prince Harry outside of these Hollywood deals is individually wealthy.

“Harry as an individual has quite a high net worth and Meghan was a moderately successful actress as well.

“The reality is that they’re far from a poor couple and I think they will be fine for many years.”

Meghan received $18million for the first episode of her Spotify podcast series about female stereotypes.

The Duchess’ first Spotify series investigated “labels that try to hold women back”.

Archetypes launched last summer, hosted by the Duchess of Sussex who spoke to historians, experts and women who have experienced being typecast.
