Meghan Markle can never be a successful podcast host, says an insider.

The touches of Sussex, who tried her luck in the world of podcast with Archetypes, it’s too guarded and self-contained to be a successful host.

Speaking to Closer, an insider said: “Meghan is too guarded and too self-controlled to succeed in the podcasting world, and she’s afraid to go on other people’s shows where she’ll get asked tough questions in a long-form setting.”

They added: “Unfortunately, that’s really the only effective avenue to grow a show, and Meghan isn’t willing to go to those lengths."

Prince Harry left the Royal Family back in 2020 alongside wife Meghan Markle and son, Prince Archie. The couple later accused the Royal Family of showcasing racism towards their son and publicly shared their grievances on television. Harry and Meghan now live in California, where they also welcomed their daughter, Princess Lilibet.
