The royal duo will produce audio programming via their company Archewell Audio as part of the multi-year partnership. It comes three months after the pair, who recently relocated to California, struck a deal with Netflix. The pair said that they wanted to create shows to `spotlight diverse perspectives and voices`.
A holiday special hosted by The Duke and Duchess will air later this month, produced in partnership with Spotify's Gimlet studio. It will feature `stories of hope and compassion from inspirational guests in celebration of the new year`.
`The Duke and Duchess of Sussex may live in California but the power of their voices rests in their status as citizens of the world. That they are embracing the extraordinary capacity of podcasts on Spotify while also seeking to elevate underrepresented voices is a testament to their appreciation for the potential of audio storytelling,` added Spotify Chief Content and Advertising Business Officer, Dawn Ostroff.
