Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have hinted that they are preparing to make a major announcement soon. The couple, who stepped back as senior royals last year, have been working on various projects in the US and around the world.
As reported by GB News The Duchess of Sussex attended a glitzy event in Los Angeles on Thursday evening without her husband. She was one of the honorees at Variety magazine’s ‘Power of Women’ gala, which celebrated the achievements of influential women in entertainment, media, and politics.
Meghan gave a speech at the event, where she thanked the magazine for recognizing her work and praised the other honorees for their contributions. She also gave an insight into what she and Harry have been up to lately.
“We’ve been busy, as I’m sure you all have been, working on some really exciting things that we can’t wait to share with you,” she said, adding that they will reveal more details “very soon”.
She did not give any clues about what the announcement might be, but some speculate that it could be related to their Archewell Foundation, which aims to promote compassion and wellbeing in the world.
The foundation has supported various causes and organizations, such as providing mental health services for refugees, donating diapers and supplies for homeless mothers, and funding scholarships for girls’ education.
Meghan and Harry have also signed lucrative deals with Netflix and Spotify to produce content that reflects their values and interests. They have already released a podcast series and a documentary about the Invictus Games, and are reportedly working on an animated series and a memoir.
The couple have also been vocal about social issues, such as racial justice, gender equality, and environmental sustainability. They have spoken out against online hate and misinformation, and urged people to vote and get vaccinated.
Meghan and Harry have also been focusing on their family life, after welcoming their second child, Lilibet Diana, in June. They have been living in a mansion in Montecito, California, with their two-year-old son, Archie.
The couple have been keeping a low profile since the death of Harry’s grandfather, Prince Philip, in April, and the release of a controversial biography, Endgame, by Omid Scobie, which revealed new details about their rift with the royal family.
The book claimed that Harry and Meghan felt betrayed and isolated by the palace, and that they were denied security and financial support after their departure. It also alleged that Harry was informed of his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II’s death, by Meghan, who heard it from a friend, before the family told him.
The royal family has not commented on the book, but has expressed their happiness for the couple’s new baby. The Queen, Prince Charles, Prince William, and Kate Middleton have all congratulated Harry and Meghan on the birth of Lilibet, who is named after the monarch’s nickname and Harry’s late mother, Princess Diana.
Harry and Meghan have not visited the UK since March 2020, due to the Covid-19 pandemic and travel restrictions. They are expected to return next year for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee and the unveiling of a statue of Diana at Kensington Palace.
It is not clear if they will meet with the rest of the family, or if they will attend any official events. However, some royal watchers hope that the couple’s upcoming announcement will be a positive one, and that it will help heal the wounds and bridge the gap between them and the royals.
