Meghan Markle's Secret Spotify Nickname 'Eva' Revealed

Meghan Markle was reportedly given the nickname 'Eva' by Spotify staff during her time working on the now-canceled 'Archetypes' podcast, referencing Joan Crawford's character from the 1955 film 'Queen Bee'. This nickname was allegedly used as a warning signal due to her purportedly difficult and demanding behavior, including mood swings and a preference for interacting with only high-ranking officials. Royal correspondent Neil Sean revealed that the nickname symbolized how staff felt 'stung' by her actions, although Markle was reportedly unaware of this label. Despite these claims, some former colleagues, like producer Jane Marie, have described Markle as a 'lovely, genuine person'. The $20 million deal between Spotify and the Sussexes ended after Markle produced only 12 episodes, with insiders suggesting the content did not meet expectations. These revelations follow a Vanity Fair cover story about the couple's life in California, which did not receive immediate comment from their representatives.
