Meghan Markle just released a new episode of her podcast Archetypes this week. The Duchess of Sussex spoke with Lisa Ling and Margaret Cho regarding the stereotypes that surround Asian-American women.
Archetype Producers Ensuring That No Negative Comments About The Royal Family Will Be In Meghan Markle's Podcast
According to royal expert Neil Sean, Meghan Markle is working closely with the producers of Archetypes to ensure that none of the upcoming episodes lined up have any negative or derogatory statements that might be offensive to the royal family. After all, Queen Elizabeth had just passed away.
"There's a lot of work going on behind the scenes on the remaining podcasts. We know there's been four in the can already that are ready to go. But according to a very good source, they're going through them all with a very fine tooth comb to make sure there's nothing derogatory, hurtful or indeed that could cause yet another explosive time bomb," he said (via 7news.com.au).
Sean also claimed that the public could look at this move in two different ways.
"You could look at this two ways really; is Meghan changing her tune to now try and re-fit back into the family that she left behind? Or indeed is she having second thoughts because she doesn't want to create any more trouble?" he said.

Meghan Markle Accused Of Taking A Swipe At The Royal Family With Latest Archetypes Episode
But during this week's episode, some listeners were convinced that Markle took another veiled swipe at the royal family. After all, she stressed that there's nothing more important than being yourself.
"Just be yourself no matter what any societal framework or archetype or loud voice coming from a small place tells you that you should be. Be yourself. Your full complete whole layered, sometimes weird, sometimes awesome, but always best and true self. Just be you. You're so much greater than any archetype," she said.
As a senior working royal, Markle was banned from doing several things. She was required to put her duties over her personal life. And she wasn't also allowed to defend herself from the British press.
So, after just a couple of years, she and Prince Harry announced their decision to step back from their royal duties. Unfortunately, the couple continues to get criticized for their every move even though they have already distanced themselves from the royal family.
