Meghan Markle launches new podcast
In a new post to Instagram, Meghan detailed: “I’m so excited to share with you something else I’ve been working on: ‘Confessions of a Female Founder,’ my new podcast with @lemonadamedia!
“I’ve been having candid conversations with amazing women who have turned dreams into realities, and scaled small ideas into massively successful businesses. They’re opening up, sharing their tips, tricks (and tumbles), and letting me pick their brains as I build out my own business, As ever.

“It has been absolutely eye-opening, inspiring…and fun! (Because what’s the point if we can’t have some fun on this wild adventure?).
“First episode is April 8th!”
Alongside the message, Meghan could be seen in a promotional snap advertising the podcast, posing in an cobalt blue blouse.
Royal fans react to Meghan Markle’s new podcast
Consequently, royal fans are reacting to Meghan’s latest update on X, due to the comment section of Meghan’s Instagram post being turned off.
One penned: “Mother is NOT playing with us this year, AT ALL.” [sic]
“Wow! Nice,” chimed in another.
Of course, she was anticipating some negative reaction. But that doesn’t mean the backlash she’s received has hurt any less.
“They will NOT BREAK THIS WOMAN!!! We love you Meghan,” added a third.
A fourth praised: “Always working hard!”
It comes after Meghan launched her latest series on Netflix, With Love, Meghan, which has seen varied reaction.
Meghan Markle faces negative backlash over Netflix cooking show
Unfortunately, reports have claimed that the negative backlash sparked by With Love, Meghan, which follows the duchess as she cooks and entertains with friends, has supposedly “crushed” Meghan’s spirits.
A source close to Meghan reportedly claims she is devastated by the backlash, despite “plastering” on a brave face.
“Meghan’s gone from being on a complete high to feeling crushed and humiliated,” the insider alleged to Closer. “She was adamant this would be a pivotal moment for her and truly believed it could turn her into the next Martha Stewart. An opportunity to re-launch her career and boost her image.
Meghan ‘has tried to plaster on a smile’
“Of course, she was anticipating some negative reaction. But that doesn’t mean the backlash she’s received has hurt any less. She’s devastated. She has tried to plaster on a smile and cling on to the fact that the show reached the Top 10 for a couple of days. But deep down, she knows those ratings would have been from all the intrigue surrounding her, and possibly not a genuine interest in the programme itself.”
Elsewhere, Meghan has also been teasing her new brand, As Ever. The lifestyle brand is set to sell a slew of products including herbal teas and preserves.
What happened to Meghan’s Archetypes podcast?
Meghan has previously had her own podcast, Archetypes, with the same production company. The podcast focused on investigating and subverting the labels that try to hold women back, according to the description on Spotify.
The last podcast episode of Archetypes was shared in 2022 after only four months of uploading. It wasn’t renewed for a second series.
