Meghan Markle reportedly has a “smaller pool” of friends to rely on as guests for her upcoming podcast with Lemonada Media, a PR expert has claimed.

Speaking on behalf of Betfred, PR expert Kayley Cornelius recently exclusively told Express.co.uk that Meghan has another list of potential guests – particularly ones that didn’t feature on her first podcast series, Archetypes.

Archetypes was released as part of Prince Harry and Meghan’s multi-million-pound deal with Spotify, which came to an end last year. Meghan released only one series of Archetypes before the couple and company announced that they had parted ways.

Discussing potential guests, the expert added: “Initially, we might expect her to call in favours from her remaining friends and work through their networks. For instance, long-term friend Priyanka Chopra, who did not feature on ‘Archetypes,’ could be among the first names Meghan considers.”

She also added that Meghan may have to invite her former TV colleagues to be guests in a desperate move to help her newest business venture, adding: “Other potential guests could include friends from her ‘Suits’ days, such as Abigail Spencer and Wendell Pierce, who likely remain accessible points of contact for Meghan.”
