Meghan Markle, Prince Harry’s Kids Archie, Lilibet Serve Up Cuteness at Pre-Thanksgiving Event
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are clearing up details of their latest business move.
As the Duke and Duchess of Sussex restructure their Archewell Foundation—which they founded in 2020—as Archewell Philanthropies, a report in the Daily Mail alleged that three of the organization’s staff members has been let go, with the ex-employees being told their layoffs were “because the charity was closing.”
While a spokesperson for the couple acknowledged that its team was indeed shrinking, they did not specify exactly how many people were affected.
“The move toward a fiscal sponsor operating model does mean that some staff redundancies are inevitable,” the spokesperson told People in a statement published Dec. 22, “particularly with junior admin roles.”
The statement continued, “We will not be discussing these personnel details further, other than to say that we are honored to have worked with incredibly talented and caring people who dedicate themselves to helping others.”
