“Word of mouth is spreading that it will lead to a huge payout – even bigger than the millions Spotify splashed out,” they told the outlet.
“And Meghan is thrilled that she’ll be in the company of Michelle and Barack Obama.”
However, the Duchess may still be feeling the strain after being dropped by Spotify so quickly after launching one of their first major projects after leaving the Royal Family.
“Meghan seems very confident at the moment but the reality is that she’s been in a pretty desperate spot,” the source continued.
“Losing the Spotify deal was a massive blow to her, not to mention her ego. She’s been pretty lost since but this deal could turn everything around.”
They added her deal with Audible could “make or break” Markle’s Hollywood dream for her and Prince Harry.
“She feels ready but that doesn’t mean this isn’t seriously daunting,” they said.
“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.
“Hollywood’s power brokers will be aware of just how they fumble on the Spotify deal, so they fear that getting dropped twice would be the end of their brand, as nobody would trust they could deliver the content. The stakes are extremely high.”
