Meghan Markle, Prince Harry Officially Change Sussex Royal To MWX Foundation: What Does It Mean?
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry just announced the new name of their foundation.
Following their Megxit, it was announced that the couple could no longer use Sussex Royal as the name of their foundation. After all, they were no longer considered as senior working royals.
According to Daily Mail, the change of Prince Harry and Markle’s foundation from Sussex Royal Foundation to the MWX Foundation was registered on August 5. And the three letters could mean Markle Windsor Foundation.
Last month, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex decided to withdraw the formal notice to change the name of their charitable foundation within just nine minutes after filing it.
But a formal document known as Change of Name Notice was filed after the new name for Prince Harry and Markle’s foundation was revealed.
This isn’t the first time that the MWX brand was linked to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Earlier this month, they also started a company with the same name. They also named their lawyer, Gerrard Tyrrell as the secretary of the company.
“The Duke and Duchess of Sussex do not plan to start a 'foundation', but rather intend to develop a new way to effect change and complement the efforts made by so many excellent foundations globally. The creation of this non-profit entity will be in addition to their cause-driven work that they remain deeply committed to,” they said in a statement last month.
Meanwhile, Prince Harry and Markle also made headlines this week after the latter praised the former and called him a Feminist dad to Archie.
During Markle’s conversation with Gloria Steinem, Markle revealed that one of the things that she learned as she got older is that it’s not mutually exclusive to be a feminist and to be feminine. Steinem replied that a lot of people can be a feminist and be masculine at the same time.
“Like my husband. I love that when he just came in he said, 'You know that I’m a feminist too, right Gloria?! It's really important to me that you know that,’” Markle gushed.
Markle also said that her son is growing up with a positive influence in his life like his dad.
“I look at our son and what a beautiful example that he gets to grow up with a father who is so comfortable owning that as part of his own self-identification. That there’s no shame in being someone who advocates for fundamental human rights for everyone, which of course includes women,” the source said.
