Douglas Dickie, Scottish Daily Express; Fresh blow for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry as Archetypes patent bid fails amid Kate Middleton rumours
"Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been dealt a fresh blow after an attempt to trademark their Archetypes podcast failed. The Sussexes had hoped to bag exclusive rights to the name as they look to find a new platform for it after splitting with Spotify.
But their hopes were dashed by the US Patent and Trademark Office which refused to grant the request due to potential confusion with an existing company. Meghan had produced just 12 episodes and a Christmas special of Archetypes for Spotify before the £18 million deal was ended...
However, it emerged that a trademark for Archetypes LLC already existed. An Arizonian firm claimed it in 2015 for use in a series of books and articles about "nutrition, fitness, sexuality, psychological self-improvement"."
