In the first episode, the Duchess of Sussex sits down with tennis superstar Serena Williams, revealing she was criticised for her ambition when dating Prince Harry.

Meghan has expressed her desire to unpack “the boxes women have been placed in for generations”.

Meghan says the Archetypes podcast will focus on “harmful labels and stereotypes applied to women.”

During the first episode Meghan reflected on a time when her, Harry and baby Archie were travelling South Africa, for Royal duties.

A fire broke out in Archie’s room but they were instructed to carry on with their official duties.

Unbeknown to Harry and Meghan, Archie wasn’t in the room at the time, but Meghan says it was a traumatic moment in their lives.

“The focus ends up being on how it looks instead of how it feels… And part of the humanising and the breaking through of these labels and these archetypes and these boxes that we’re put into is having some understanding on the human moments behind the scenes that people might not have any awareness of and to give each other a break.”

Williams also spoke of emotional rollercoasters that she has faced in the sporting world and juggling her career while being a mum. She reflected on playing a match in 2018, after a sleepless night, because her daughter had broken her wrist.

“I somehow managed to win, but I was so emotionally spent and just like so emotionally drained that it was, it was crazy. And, you know, and then like every night after that, I just was with her the whole time and was like you’re going to be with me,”

Harry and Meghan have a contract to produce and host podcasts for Spotify. They will be produced by their company, Archewell Audio.

The first podcast episode follows a turbulent few years for the Sussexes and their relationship with the Royal Family.

Israel and Hamas agree to release hostages in U.S.-brokered deal, marking a potential turning point in Gaza conflict.

In a major diplomatic breakthrough, Israel and Hamas have agreed to release all remaining Israeli hostages under a U.S.-brokered framework. The deal pairs prisoner exchanges with an Israeli troop pullback and expanded aid access, marking a potential turning point in the two-year Gaza conflict.

The agreement, set for approval by Israel’s cabinet, could pave the way for lasting peace if both sides uphold the terms. It follows weeks of negotiations led by U.S. envoys and regional mediators in Egypt, Qatar, and Türkiye.

As international agencies prepare to facilitate aid and logistics, the world watches to see whether this fragile deal can hold and bring relief to millions affected by the war.
