That didn't last very long!

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s multi-million dollar deal with Spotify has come to an end.

Spotify and Archewell (Prince Harry and Meghan's production company) released a joint statement, saying that they both have agreed to "to part ways".

The $20m deal was announced in August of last year and since then the pair only had one season of their podcast 'Archetypes' released on the platform, so it seems like maybe it wasn't the success they were hoping for!

In the statement they said they were "proud" of Archetypes, a podcast hosted by Meghan and Harry where they had a slew of famous guests like Serena Williams, Mariah Carey and Paris Hilton.

This news comes after it was reported in the Wall Street Journal that Archetypes wasn't renewed for a second season.

However representatives for Meghan Markle told the newspaper that the Duchess wasn't finished making content.

"Meghan is continuing to develop more content for the Archetypes audience on another platform."

Goes to show how saturated the podcast market is these days that even a couple as famous as Prince Harry and Meghan are struggling to get their show into the charts!
