A celebrity PR expert claimed that Meghan Markle might ask some of her celebrity friends — including her former “Suits” co-stars — to help boost her new podcast with Lemonada Media.
“Initially, we might expect her to call in favours from her remaining friends and work through their networks,” Kayley Cornelius told Express on Sunday.

Cornelius also said: “Other potential guests could include friends from her ‘Suits’ days, such as Abigail Spencer and Wendell Pierce, who likely remain accessible points of contact for Meghan.”

The Duchess of Sussex, 42, in February inked a deal with Lemonada Media to launch a new podcast, which is set to debut in 2025.
This came after Spotify decided not to renew the steep $20 million deal for a second season of her previous podcast, “Archetypes.”
“I’m proud to now be able to share that I am joining the brilliant team at Lemonada to continue my love of podcasting,” Markle said in a statement earlier this year. “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.”

“Archetypes,” which launched in August 2022, focused on exploring the labels that hold women back.
Markle co-produced the podcast with Prince Harry.
Some of her guests included Serena Williams, Paris Hilton, Mariah Carey and Andy Cohen.
While the celebrity PR expert claimed that Markle wants to use her Hollywood connections to help her podcast, it’s been said that the Sussexes are losing friends in the industry.

“Harry and Meghan’s circle is getting smaller and smaller,” Princess Diana’s former butler, Paul Burrell, told Closer earlier this month.
He added: “I think the A-list stars are dropping like flies. Some already have done — Oprah [Winfrey] no longer seems involved with them and some other celebrities have also dropped them.”
As a former actress who starred on “Suits” from 2011 to 2018, Markle has been friends with many Hollywood stars, including Chopra and Williams. She and Harry, 39, are pals with George Clooney, Amal Clooney, Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Elton John and Idris Elba.

However, Burrell said that the couple — who quit their royal duties and moved to California in 2020 — are disconnected from their famous friends now.
He also claimed that some Hollywood stars, like the Clooneys, who went to Meghan and Harry’s wedding in 2018, have “turned down recent invites” from the pair.
In addition to their podcast, the Sussexes also inked a lucrative $100 million deal with Netflix back in 2020.
Since signing on the dotted line, the couple released their bombshell six-part documentary “Harry & Meghan” in 2022, followed by “Live To Lead,” and most recently, “Heart of Invictus,” with more projects on the way.
