It was also reported that the podcast series won't be renewed after it failed to pay off.
According to a report in the British media, the decision to cut more jobs came five months after Spotify laid off about 600 employees and bid farewell to Dawn Ostroff, the podcast boss who signed up Harry and Meghan.
Spotify has yet to officially confirm that the podcast hosted by Meghan Markle has been canceled.
The podcast debuted on August 23, 2022 and featured Meghan talking with celebrities, historians and experts about the history of stereotypes that get leveled against women.
