Meghan Markle may be one of the most famous women on the planet, but the Hollywood powers that be are said to be less than impressed with her showbiz talent.
The Duchess of Sussex, 42, is said to be panicking after being told that the launch of her upcoming podcast with Lemonada Media has been postponed to next year.
according to In contactCompany executives suspended the project over concerns that the upcoming launch of her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, would draw attention away from her audio efforts.
“Meghan gets greedy,” an insider told the magazine. “She wants everything at once, but it’s backfiring again. She’s become a complete joke and it’s getting too far into her hands.”
Lemonada executives are also said to be concerned that Markle’s upcoming Netflix cooking show will draw attention away from the podcast.
“It obviously didn’t work out with Lemonada,” the source said. “They certainly expected it to be Meghan’s priority project, but she must have decided that Meghan had big fish to fry with Netflix.”
The alleged move against the podcast comes after Markle’s Spotify series Archetypes was not renewed for a second season.
The source said Markle is now in desperate need of a hit with her Netflix show and lifestyle brand to prove that she and her husband, Prince Harry, can still make it in Hollywood.
However, those involved are not holding out hope.
“Almost everything they tried ended in disaster,” they bitterly declared.
Meanwhile, a prominent Tinseltown source told In Touch that “big name celebrities have little respect for Duchess Kate, who demands large amounts of money for her content.”
“Hollywood is outwardly glamorous and glamorous, but true stars have worked hard to achieve success, and I get the impression that hard work is not Meghan’s strong suit.” Anonymous sources say.
“Now, after all her failures, all those celebrities and royals are laughing at her!”
