Meghan Markle’s “Archetypes” Spotify podcast won’t be renewed for a second season, The Post can confirm.
A source near the situation told The Post on Thursday that the Archewell media company launched by Prince Harry, 38, and Markle, 41, didn’t produce enough content to receive the total payout of the roughly $20 million deal the couple signed in 2020.
The news comes after struggling Spotify announced this month it’ll cut 200 jobs because it reimagines its approach to podcasting.
In a joint statement to The Post, Spotify and Archewell Audio said they’ve “mutually agreed to part ways and are happy with the series we made together.”
“Meghan is constant to develop more content for the Archetypes audience on one other platform,” an Archewell Productions spokeswoman added to The Wall Street Journal.
The Post has contacted reps for Harry and Markle for comment.
“Archetypes,” which explored the labels that hold women back, was the one project the couple produced for Spotify during their two-and-a-half-year partnership.
The podcast premiered in August 2022.
There have been just 12 episodes of “Archetypes,” which featured guests resembling Serena Williams, Mariah Carey, Mindy Kaling, and Paris Hilton.
Each episode typically ran about an hour.
The Duchess of Sussex put the podcast on pause in September throughout the official mourning period for Queen Elizabeth II.
Trevor Noah, Andy Cohen, and Judd Apatow appeared on the ultimate “Archetypes” episode, “Man-ifesting A Cultural Shift,” which dropped Nov. 29.
Harry and Markle also signed a take care of Netflix in 2020 for an estimated $100 million.
Their six-part, tell-all docuseries “Harry & Meghan” was a smash hit for the streamer last 12 months.
Harry also shocked the world along with his 400-page memoir “Spare,” which was released in January.
As for what’s next for Markle, the previous “Suits” actress and her WME team could also be trying to land film and TV production gigs, brand partnerships, and “overall business-building,” but a return to acting won’t be an area of focus.
