And it’s been in the diary for months,” he said.<\/p>\n According to the royal correspondent, the clash was “baffling” because it wouldn’t have taken much to move the realise date of Meghan’s podcast.<\/p>\n “I think that’s the only thing I can imagine is maybe Lemonade Media<\/a> had a schedule,” he said.<\/p>\n They end up making mistakes that they don’t really need to. I mean, this is what their fourth failed thing.”<\/p>\n \u00a0Esther Krakue<\/p><\/blockquote>\n “But she is such a big fish in a small pond at Lemonade, which is the podcast production company that you would think that she could ask to be moved a week.<\/p>\n “I mean, she wouldn’t even need to be moved. You know, she could be moved two days, one day.”<\/p>\n It’s the small mistakes like this that show they’re not part of “the royal machine” Esther added.<\/p>\n “I mean, these are the kinds of mistakes that just wouldn’t happen if they were part of the firm.<\/p>\n Meghan has NO substance – podcast is massive misfire & she wants glory without putting in the work<\/p>\n “Everything is like a well-oiled machine. And now they’re very impulsive and emotional and kind of like to do things off the cuff,” she explained.<\/p>\n And while this laid-back approach might be what the couple are going for – it’s not working as they may have hoped, Esther said.<\/p>\n She explained: “I think they think part of the authenticity or appeal comes from just not being as polished or trying to not seem as polished.<\/p>\n “They end up making mistakes that they don’t really need to. I mean, this is what their fourth failed thing.”<\/p>\n According to Esther, it’s these “wasted opportunities” that hold them back and show how detached they are.<\/p>\n Meghan Markle’s ventures after stepping down as a working royal<\/p>\n THE Duchess of Sussex has kept busy since stepping down as a senior working royal in 2020 and relocating to California. Here are some of her business ventures…<\/p>\n “I don’t know why they don’t get it,” she added.<\/p>\n Meghan’s eight-part Netflix series\u00a0With Love, Meghan\u00a0<\/a>which saw her making meals and crafting with Hollywood<\/a> pals, didn’t see the success she was likely hoping for.<\/p>\n In fact, it has since\u00a0received fierce criticism<\/a>\u00a0and currently has a rating of just 2.8\/10 on IMDb.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, her re-brand, As Ever, was faced with several blows after fellow business<\/a> owners, and a Majorcan mayor,\u00a0accused the Duchess of plagiarism\u00a0<\/a>over the name and logo.<\/p>\n And, Archetypes, the Duchess’ first podcast was axed from Spotify<\/a>\u00a0less than a year after its debut – seeing the Sussexes reportedly lose out on an \u00a318 million payout.<\/p>\n Why did Prince Harry and Meghan Markle step back as senior working royals?<\/p>\n PRINCE Harry has always wanted out of the Royal Family and the repercussions will be felt for years, an expert has claimed.<\/p>\n The Duke of Sussex has lived in California<\/a> with his wife Meghan Markle<\/a> since 2020 after they dramatically quit their jobs<\/a> as working royals and moved across the pond.<\/p>\n Katie Nicholl, who is Vanity Fair’s royal correspondent, told The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show<\/a> that Megxit<\/a> did not come as a surprise to her.<\/p>\n Speaking to The Sun’s Royal Editor Matt Wilkinson, the commentator explained: “Anyone who knows Harry is aware he’s always wanted a way out of the Royal Family<\/a>.<\/p>\n “He’s said multiple times on the record that he wished he’d never been born a prince.<\/p>\n “I think he really is living the life he wants to now. It’s very, very sad that it’s played out the way it has.\u201d<\/p>\n In a statement<\/a> made on the Sussexes’ Instagram<\/a> account as they stepped back in 2020, the pair wrote: “After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution.<\/p>\n “We intend to step back as \u2018senior\u2019 members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent, while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen.<\/p>\n “It is with your encouragement, particularly over the last few years, that we feel prepared to make this adjustment.<\/p>\n “We now plan to balance our time between the United Kingdom and North America, continuing to honour our duty to The Queen, the Commonwealth, and our patronages.<\/p>\n “This geographic balance will enable us to raise our son with an appreciation for the royal tradition into which he was born, while also providing our family with the space to focus on the next chapter, including the launch of our new charitable entity.\u201d<\/p>\n![\"Prince](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1744700652_6_prince-harry-meghan-markle-attend-936734422_6d20f0.jpg\")
