Kelly Osbourne didn’t hold back when it came to talking about Prince Harry on the I’ve Had It podcast. “I think Harry’s a f--king tw-t. I do,” she said. “I think he’s a f--king tw-t. He’s a whining, whinging, complaining, ‘Woe is me, I’m the only one that’s ever had mental problems, like, my life was so hard.’”
Kelly continued, “Everybody’s f--king life is hard. You were the Prince of a godd-mn country who dressed up as a f--king nazi, and now you’re trying to come back as the Pope? S-ck it. No. No.”
Meanwhile, Bill Simmons, who sold The Ringer to Spotify in 2020, recently referred to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex as “grifters” on his eponymous podcast.
“The f-cking grifters. That’s the podcast we shoulda launched with them,” Bill said (via Deadline ). “I gotta get drunk one night and tell the story of the Zoom I had with Harry to try and help him with a podcast idea. It’s one of my best stories.”
Archewell Audio, the Sussexes’ audio-first production company, announced in December of 2020 a “multi-year partnership” with Spotify. However last week, it was confirmed that the Sussexes and Spotify had parted ways. In a joint statement (via Deadline ), Spotify and Archewell Audio said they “have mutually agreed to part ways and are proud of the series we made together.”
Variety reported that a source said Harry and Meghan, whose podcast Archetypes debuted last August, “wanted to move away from exclusive Spotify distribution to find a new home for their audio projects,” while another source said “Spotify expected more content from Archewell Audio.”
