The latest episode of Meghan Markle’s Spotify podcast Archetypes has been released today (November 1). Titled ‘Good Wife/Bad Wife, Good Mom/Bad Mom’, the episode features guests Sophie Trudeau, Pamela Adlon and Sam Jay. Here are four key things we learned about Meghan and her life at home with Archie and Lilibet in today’s episode.

Meghan on being a mother in the public eye

At the beginning of the podcast, Meghan opened up about how she shared a summer day by the pool with Sophie Trudeau, and how much support the Canadian public figure had offered her when she was pregnant.

Meghan said: “She’s the type of person who cares really deeply about her friends.

“She used to send me these little meditations during my pregnancy and voice notes, just these moments of encouragement and I’ve gone to her over the years for advice.

“She knows what it feels like to be a mom and a partner, and specifically a mom and a partner in the public eye, and also how crushing the guilt of expectations can become.”

An important moment in Meghan’s pregnancy

While speaking to Pamela, Meghan thanked her for her “affirming” words when they first met at a birthday party.

She said: “It was Gloria Steinem’s birthday lunch at a mutual friend’s home.

“And I remember my friend said if you want to just come Gloria’s having a birthday lunch and I thought, okay, great, this will be casual like when I go and sit with her at the cottage, not realizing it’s a bit of an extravaganza and I haven’t gotten out of the house in a long time at that point, and I’m pregnant.

“I was so nervous when I walked in and just saw this room full of women, and you came up to me and you said something that was just so affirming.”

“No, but honestly, you have no idea what that moment meant to me,” she added, and Pamela said she was “so proud” of Meghan.

An update on Archie and baby Lilibet

In the podcast, Meghan spoke of how she is “in the thick of it” with her little ones, Archie and Lilibet, the latter of whom has recently reached a big milestone.

The Duchess said: “Lili has just started walking.

“She’s a year and a couple of months old and Archie’s just over three years old.”

She added: “Oh I’m in the thick of it.”

Meghan’s morning routine

The Duchess also touched on how “very important” it is to her to make breakfast for Prince Harry, Archie and Lilibet in the mornings.

She said: “So the morning rush, I’m sure it’ll only get more chaotic as they get older.

“But for me it’s, you know, both monitors on for the kids to hear them, always up with Lili, get her downstairs, then a half hour later Archie’s up.

“Start doing his lunchbox right before he’s up. While I have her, getting her a little nibble, my husband helps me get him downstairs.

“I make breakfast for all three of them. It’s very important to me.

“I love doing it… and it’s just to me feels like the greatest way to start the morning.”
