Spotify Exec’s ”F*cking Gritters” Remark on Meghan Markle and Prince Harry resurfaces, Sussex Insider Speaks Out
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle although known to be a popular couple, do not get enough credit for being adventurous. They tied a one-of-a-kind knot in an institution where a biracial marriage was unheard of. They made a jaw-dropping exit from said institution. Their jaw-dropping exit was followed by a more bombshell interview, docuseries, and a memoir. But nothing could prepare the Sussexes for the falloff of their Spotify deal.
The Spotify deal may have cost the Californian royals $20 Million on paper, but with the aftermath consisting of an outcry of “f*cking gritters“, it left a dent on their livelihood. But a recent revelation by an insider might just turn the tide.

As if the announcement of their parting ways was not enough, Spotify executive, Bill Simmons, went on to accuse the couple of being lazy and “f*cking gritters.” But even without his demeaning comments, with a mere twelve episodes, the Sussexes did not have much going for themselves, that is, until recently. An exclusive by People reveals that an industry insider stated, ” were given no formal lay of the land to kick things off.”
It is true that the Californian royals are new to the working of Hollywood despite Markle being a former actress and therefore they might have not known much going into the Archetypes podcast.
The insider further reveals that the lack of episodes was not entirely Markle’s cross to bear. Even when the royals presented an idea, it was not received well by Spotify. The Spotify debacle was met with more as the Sussexes lost their close friends. But this is not the final chapter.
Will the Sussexes make a Hollywood-style comeback?

This is why, when asked if the Spotify falloff marked the end of the Californian royals’ Hollywood journey, an insider stated, “Hollywood loves a comeback”. Especially if said comeback includes former senior royals.
