Princess Eugenie Announces Return of Podcast Series with Special Guest
Princess Eugenie, who recently made a stunning appearance at the Vogue World event in London, is once again in the public eye.
The 33-year-old, who is a mother to August and four-month-old Ernest, took to social media to share some exciting news.
Eugenie, along with her best friend Julia de Boinville, co-founded an anti-slavery collective in 2017.
In April 2022, they launched their own podcast series called “Floodlight,” which aims to raise awareness about modern slavery and explore ways to combat it.
In an Instagram stories video, Eugenie and Julia announced that the second season of their audio series will be released on October 18th, which coincides with anti-slavery day.
The first season featured discussions with actress Dame Emma Thompson, but this time, they have a special guest lined up: former UK Prime Minister Theresa May.
Julia mentioned that they have been working on the new season for a long time and revealed that it will also feature sports stars, charity leaders, and musicians as guests.
Interestingly, there is some behind-the-scenes drama surrounding the podcast.
According to a close source, Meghan Markle, in the first season of the podcast, had reached out to Princess Eugenie expressing her interest in participating.
At that time, Meghan's Archewell podcast had not yet been released, and she was looking for opportunities.
The topic of Eugenie's podcast aligns with Meghan's interests, but due to existing royal tensions, Eugenie did not extend an invitation to Meghan.
It seems that this snub has caused some resentment, especially since Meghan had previously invited Eugenie to her own podcast in an attempt to showcase a harmonious relationship with the royal family.
Now, with Spotify reportedly distancing itself from Meghan and Harry, it seems that there won't be any future deals between the streaming platform and the couple.
Public relations experts suggest that Meghan may have to explore other avenues, such as speaking engagements or buying awards to maintain her public presence.
While it is unclear whether Meghan is jealous of Eugenie's career, recent rumors suggest that Meghan's PR agency has been spreading false accusations against Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank.
The agency claims that the couple copied Meghan and Harry in a tribute to their sons.
However, Eugenie seems unfazed by these allegations as she recently shared a video and a photo montage, expressing her delight in joining the Goals House advisory board, a community dedicated to achieving the UN's Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.
In conclusion, Princess Eugenie's podcast series, “Floodlight,” is set to return with an exciting lineup of guests, including former UK Prime Minister Theresa May.
Despite some tension within the royal family, Eugenie remains focused on her advocacy work, while Meghan Markle seeks new opportunities to maintain her public presence.
The podcast industry continues to evolve, and it will be interesting to see how these two influential figures navigate their respective paths in this digital space.
