Meghan Markle speaks to Daily Show host Trevor and director Judd Apatow

Meghan Markle today released the latest episode of her Archetypes podcast featuring male guests for the first time after Prince Harry “suggested” it.

The Duchess of Sussex admitted that her British husband said she needed to speak to men on the show, currently 29 on the Spotify charts, to “shift the gender debate.”

The Duchess of Sussex spoke to The Daily Show host Trevor Noah, film director Judd Apatow and Real Housewives executive producer Andy Cohen for their take on “the labels and tropes that try to hold women back.”

Her Spotify podcast deal is said to be worth $18 million and episode 12 of her show has finally been completed two years after signing with the streaming giant.

Meghan revealed that the first male guests on Archetypes came after Prince Harry — the only man to appear in an episode to date — proposed.

She said, “Now, if you’ve listened to the past eleven episodes, you may have noticed that you haven’t heard many male voices until now, other than a quick pop, in, from my husband, in in the first episode, this one contained show only female voices.

“It was important to us that women have a space to share their authentic and intricately complex and dynamic experiences in order to be heard. And to be understood.

“But through that process, it also occurred to me, and frankly at my husband’s suggestion, that if we really want to change how we think about gender and the restrictive labels we put people in, we should open the conversation.

“And we need to actively involve men in that conversation and certainly in that effort. So today we just do we take it all out of the box.”

Trevor Noah opened up about the shooting of his South African mother Patricia Noah at the hands of his stepfather, mechanic Abel Shingange, saying that “all [he] felt was anger” in the aftermath of the horrific incident.

He said that he and his mother trusted each other and suddenly he was the man of the house.

He said, “I remember my mother saying to me when I was very young, she said remember that as a man you can be the head of your household without owning a penny more than your wife said you can’t earn anything.”

“She said being a man has nothing to do with how you exercise your power in the household. It’s all about how you fulfill your role’.

Last month, Noah was involved in a row with the prime minister after he called the UK a racist country and falsely claimed there was outrage that ‘Indians are going to take over’ after Rishi Sunak became prime minister.

But in a video posted to Twitter from The Daily Show, Noah said, “Seeing the story of Rishi Sunak becoming England’s first Prime Minister of Color, of Indian descent, of all these things and then seeing the backlash is one of the more telling things. about how people view the role they or their people have played in history.

And what I mean by that is this, you hear a lot of people say, “Oh, they’re taking over, now the Indians are going to take over Britain and now what?”

“And I always find myself going, “And then? What are you afraid of?” He suggested that fear was based on the formerly oppressed taking revenge on their tormentors when they came to power.

Tom Holland, the historian, author and podcaster, said, “As always, the inability of American liberals to understand the world outside the US in anything other than American terms is a marvel.

“(The probability of the right-wing party in the US electing a Hindu as its leader is, I agree, basically zero.)” Mr Sunak’s grandparents came from the state of Punjab before the Indian subcontinent was declared in 1947. distributed in India and Pakistan. British colonial rule ended.

Noah, 38, grew up in a mixed-race family during apartheid and is one of the US’s best-known satirists. His family moved to East Africa and settled in the UK in the 1960s.

Meghan Markle admits she loved watching Real Housewives but stopped when ‘my life had its own level of drama’

Meghan Markle has admitted she’s a fan of the Real Housewives franchise, but stopped craving “other people’s drama” when her own life turned turbulent.

The Duchess of Sussex, 41, who lives in Montecito, California, spoke about her love of the show with host Andy Cohen on her podcast Archetypes.

She said she used to love the Real Housewives of Orange County because the women on the show felt close to her life as a California native, but also “foreign.”

Cohen joked about rumors claiming that Meghan would appear in Real Housewives of Beverly Hills after she and Prince Harry moved to the US in 2020 after Megxit and the mother-of-two insisted she had no plans to star in a reality TV show to appear.

However, Meghan will soon appear in a fly-on-the-wall series when Netflix releases its £88m production following the Duchess and Prince Harry next week on December 8.

After admitting to being a longtime fan of the show, Andy Cohen, one of three male guests on this week’s episode of Archetype, told Meghan, “I think the million-dollar question is, do you look still to the housewives? This is what we so wanted to know.

Meghan replied, “Well, I’ll tell you the truth. I stopped watching the Housewives when my life had its own level of drama.

“That I stopped—” Andy finished her sentence for her, saying, “longing for other people’s.”

Meghan agreed with his interpretation, saying: “I understand why it was such a huge part of pop culture and when it started because you started with Orange County and at least I’m from California,” she added.

“It felt distantly like a world I knew, yet felt so foreign,” she added.

Cohen further mentioned rumors circulating about a possible appearance by Meghan in the franchise’s Beverly Hills series after she and The Duke of Sussex stepped down as senior royals and moved to the US.

She laughed at them and said that she was not aware of any rumors and that she would not be appearing in any TV reality TV show.
