Their Archewell Foundation website also underwent a makeover to coordinate with the new website. Instead of a beige background, the non-profit organization’s homepage features a similar blue theme.
The couple’s former website,SussexRoyal.com, now redirects to the new address. A pop-up message on the webpage reads: “This site was established in 2020 and sets out the work streams of Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex prior to their move to the United States.

After Meghan and Harry married in May 2018, news about their royal work appeared on the @KensingtonRoyal accounts alongside updates aboutPrince WilliamandKate Middleton. The following year, the couple launched a separate Instagram page, @SussexRoyal, as part of the plan toestablish a separate officefrom William and Kate.
The @SussexRoyal Instagram account stopped being updated after Harry and Meghan stepped back from their senior royal roles in 2020, and itsfinal postwas shared in March 2020.
The couple has not had a social media presence since, but Meghan has hinted that a return to Instagram might be in their future. In a 2022interviewwithNew Yorkmagazine’sThe Cut, the Duchess of Sussex said: “Do you want to know a secret? I’m getting back…on Instagram.” Although Meghan “would relay she was no longer sure she would actually return to Instagram” later in the interview, she appeared to be considering the move amid the launch of herArchetypespodcast.
