Moreover, despite the amicable nature of the companies joint press release, Spotify are said to be extremely disappointed with the outcome of the deal, having expected more content produced than just one series.
The audio streamer shelled out a reported $20 million fee back in August of 2020, in a bid to secure exclusivity over content produced by Archiwell Studios.
It is not the first podcasting deal with big-name celebrities to go awry for Spotify though, with the company opting against renewing another husband and wife duo in the form of Barack and Michelle Obama last year.
The former US President and First Lady also had an exclusive rights deal with Spotify, however it too failed to deliver the expected success the platform had hoped for.
In an unrelated move, Spotify earlier this month announced that it had opted to lay off around 200 employees from its podcasting division, in what was labelled a restructuring of its podcast operations.
