Princess Beatrice is reportedly in talks to secure a role with Spotify, following the company’s terminated £18 million deal with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who produced only one show under the agreement. Beatrice’s involvement comes despite a Spotify executive’s negative comments about Harry and Meghan, calling them “f** grifters.” Beatrice, the eldest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, attended an industry event at Spotify’s London office, reinforcing her engagement with the platform. She has a background in technology and is a founder of the tech firm BY-EQ, established in 2022.

In a separate development, Meghan Markle has launched a new venture called ‘American Riviera Orchard,’ introducing a jam product that has drawn comparisons to King Charles’s Highgrove Estate products. Meghan’s jam has been promoted to influencers and friends, contrasting with Highgrove products that contribute to charitable causes through the Highgrove Foundation, supporting education, training, and community support. Meghan’s brand has also filed trademarks for various items including spreads, preserves, and jellies, indicating plans for expansion in these markets. Meanwhile, she and Prince Harry are expected to launch new shows on Netflix related to cooking, gardening, and polo. Critics, however, have questioned the direction of Meghan’s business endeavors in comparison to other royal family members’ contributions to charitable activities.

Overall, these developments illustrate the ongoing professional pursuits and collaborations of the Royals and their spouses with major business entities in the broader media and consumer goods sectors.
