Meghan Markle draws flak from the royal commentators due to her podcast Archetypes as they label it as unnatural and scripted.

&#8220;Very scripted and quite unspontaneous&#8221; &#8211; Royal Correspondents Slam Meghan Markle’s Spotify Podcast Archetypes

Meghan Markle has breached a new forte with her Spotify podcast Archetypes. The
show, which has hosted a number of influential personalities, started with a
bang. As the first episode featuring Serena Williams went online in August,
Archetypes achieved the first ranking in the US. The show continued its
domination in the second week as well. However, with ten episodes gone by, the
podcast has failed to continue the glorious ride.



It has now slipped to 27th place in the United States while also receiving a lot
of criticism from the people in the United Kingdom. It was very recently that
Meghan Markle was accused of not interviewing the experts, authors, and writers
in her podcast.

Archetypes was again put under fire as a handful of royal correspondents labeled
the podcast as scripted and unspontaneous.

ROYAL EXPERTS CLAIM MEGHAN MARKLE FOLLOWS A SCRIPT IN HER PODCAST

The TV host Ian Collins was extremely critical of the latest episode of the
podcast titled The Audacity of the Activist with Jameela Jamil & Shohreh
Aghdashloo. Collins seemed upset with Meghan Markle trying the British accent

with her guest, Jamil. As the British actress entered the podcast, the Duchess
greeted her by saying Ello. Further, the royal commentator believes that the
tenth episode was all about complaining, while it also had some sort of
underpinning.

Meanwhile, the royal correspondent Daisy McAndrew labeled Meghan Markle’s
podcast as scripted and unnatural. McAndrew is of the opinion that the
conversations look forced as the Duchess refrains from speaking her heart out.
She advised Markle to go off-script often in the show. The former American
actress looks very authentic and genuine when she does not follow the
pre-written script for the episode.

“I wish she would rip up the script. There are occasions where she goes off
script, and she sounds much more genuine and authentic, which, of course, is the
whole point about a podcast,” the royal commentator said as quoted
