Overview
- An official December statement said Archewell is becoming Archewell Philanthropies and stated the entity allows the couple and their children to expand their philanthropic work as a family.
- The mention marked the first explicit inclusion of Archie, 6, and Lilibet, 4, in such an organisational announcement, coinciding with a family photo, a Christmas card, and a year‑end video showing clearer images of the children.
- A Sussexes spokesman has said Archie and Lilibet’s titles have been a birthright since their grandfather became monarch and that the matter was settled in alignment with Buckingham Palace.
- Coverage cited an unnamed friend of Prince Harry expressing surprise at the children’s inclusion in the statement, characterizing it as a departure from earlier privacy signals, though this reaction remains reported rather than confirmed.
- Reporting also notes a pending UK security risk assessment on police protection for potential visits, which could influence whether the children travel to Britain, with separate reports flagging recent staff departures at Archewell.
