Meghan Markle criticized for attempting to trademark 'Archetypes' podcast
Attempts to trademark Meghan Markle's Archetypes podcast are under question.
Archewell Audio's podcast, one of Meghan's 11 complex web companies, has filed for trademarks on Archetypes.
According to Express UK, the move would plunge the Sussexes into ownership of the trademark, rather than Spotify, which paid the couple £18m in 2020.
Legal experts have warned that the move could have legal repercussions from both Spotify and any company that already uses the Archetypes trademark.
Meghan's mission statement is shared in the podcast's trailer and in it she can be heard saying, "We talk about women like this: the words that raise our girls, and how the media women shows it back to us."
"But where do these stereotypes come from? And how do they continue to show and define our lives?"
