Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have recently been caught up in Joe Rogan’s Spotify drama. In 2020, the royal couple signed a $25 million deal with Spotify. Recently, though, they expressed concern that “Covid misinformation” is “being spread” on the streaming service provider by Joe Rogan’s podcast. Despite the Sussexes’ concerns, it looks like they are going to stay with the company, as reported by The Mirror.
Royal expert Richard Eden told Mail+ Palace Confidential, according to the Daily Star, “For years, they’ve gone on about the dangers of misinformation … And then here they are with Spotify, accused of spreading misinformation through Joe Rogan’s very popular podcast. But Harry and Meghan have signed a very lucrative deal with Spotify that’s meant to be worth £18million. So between the principles and money, it’s always a question of which will they go for, and it seems they’ve gone for the money.” Now, talk show host Tucker Carlson has some bold thoughts on the situation and on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Carlson didn’t hold back in his written piece. The conservative commentator focused on a revealing moment during the Oprah interview where Meghan claimed that sister-in-law Kate Middleton made her cry and refuted earlier rumors stating the opposite. Carlson called the event “petty” and trivial, before asserting that the Duchess of Sussex is entitled and has a victim mentality. He boldly claimed that despite “the fact that she’s literally a princess — sorry, duchess — she is actually an oppressed victim.” He accused her of using her fame and status to draw sympathy from fans.
