Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have done an awe-inspiring job since their move to the U.S. from the royal house in the United Kingdom. Not only from the financial contentment point of view but also their family strategy seems to be going in the right way.
Their impact on society has enhanced significantly with the charities they are doing and the words of wisdom they spread during their public interactions also make a lot of sense.
According to the Telegraph, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have a code of making public appearances, especially on the speaking part.
Provided their high profile status and the need to uphold their own and royal house’s brand value, the availability of a set of rules for public speaking is in fact quite understandable.
Telegraph reported that the event organizers who wish to have the Sussexes speak on a digital platform, have to necessarily fill out a “Virtual Event Request Form” that contains the details to book a Sussex appearance through the Harry Walker Agency.
Harry Walker Agency also represents influential public personalities such as Oprah Winfrey, Barack and Michelle Obama, and Bill and Hillary Clinton, among a string of others.
Harry has pledged not to do anything that in any way goes against the ideology of the royal family, so the organizers have to put in words the exact details of the entire public event to avoid any controversies.
Another reason is the high magnitude and frequency of their digital public appearances, with their previous interactions, the Sussexes have made it quite clear that - they would only take up works that add value to society and provide people with insights into what’s important to do.
In order to book Meghan and Harry for a show, the organizers must also share the details of their previous shows, the speakers who made an appearance, and the likes of the same. Apart from that, they also need to specify the names of other speakers who will be sharing the show with the royal pair. Some more questions that are asked are:
"Will you incorporate any branding? What will the audience see on screen? What will the Speaker see on screen immediately during and prior to their presentation?"
The Sussex pair is careful in every new step they take and they certainly don’t wish any controversial situation to rock their smooth sailing boat. That also explains public appearance guidelines.
