Meghan Markle, Prince Harry unveil new charity, Sussex Royal foundation

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are moving forward with their philanthropic efforts.

The couple, who split from the Royal Foundation organization with Prince William and Kate Middleton in June, has a new charity entitled, “Sussex Royal The Foundation of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex,” The Sun’s royal correspondent, Emily Andrews, reported Wednesday.

Andrews also confirmed “Sussex Royal” will have public relations aficionado Sara Latham and Natalie Campbell, a former employee of the Royal Foundation, on its staff.

Last month, Kensington Palace confirmed Meghan and Harry’s exit from the Royal Foundation.

“Later this year the Royal Foundation will become the principal charitable and philanthropic vehicle for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will establish their own charitable foundation with transitional operating support from the Royal Foundation,” the palace said in a statement.

“In addition both couples will continue to work together on projects in the future.”

Meghan, 37, and Harry, 34, have long made it their mission to forge a new royal path, which included a private christening for their only child, son Archie. The couple also moved from Kensington Palace to Frogmore Cottage ahead of their son’s birth this spring.
