Meghan Markle has signed a new podcast deal with Lemonada Media, the left-leaning network famed for hosting the ‘BEING Trans’ podcast.
“I’m proud to now be able to share that I am joining the brilliant team at Lemonada to continue my love of podcasting,” said Harry’s 42-year-old wife in a statement on the move.
“Being able to support a female-founded company with a roster of thought-provoking and highly entertaining podcasts is a fantastic way to kick off 2024,” she added.
In addition to transgenderism-focused shows, Lemonada also platforms far-left “comedians” Sarah Silverman and Samantha Bee.
Lemonada CEO Jessica Cordova Kramer said her company was “beyond honored” to have partnered with the Duchess, claiming her “talent as host, creator and conversationalist is unparalleled.”
Meghan and Harry’s previous deal with Spotify was worth a reported $20 million, but the Anglo-American couple produced only a handful of episodes for the company from late 2020 to 2022 before it cut the deal short in mid-2023. The botched partnership resulted in significant job losses.
Lemonada Media, with fewer than 11,000 followers on Elon Musk’s X platform, is a significant step down from Spotify, which boasts 14.3 million.
