Meghan Markle is reportedly close to landing a major Hollywood deal.
According to Page Six, the Duchess of Sussex is on the verge of signing a multi-million-dollar deal with Amazon’s podcast company, Audible.
The new venture is said to “make or break her Hollywood dream.”
“Word of mouth is spreading that it will lead to a huge payout — even bigger than the millions Spotify splashed out. And Meghan is thrilled that she’ll be in the company of Michelle and Barack Obama [who signed a deal with Audible in 2022],” a source spilled to the tabloid.
The alleged insider noted the deal is expected to be extremely lucrative for Meghan.
“Meghan seems very confident at the moment, but the reality is that she’s been in a pretty desperate spot,” the source alleged, claiming Meghan “feels ready” to get to work, but that it “doesn’t mean this isn’t seriously daunting.”
“She hardly sleeps thanks to the pressure of it all but knows that the pressure will only get worse if she lands the deal — it will be make or break. The stakes are extremely high,” the source added.
