Overview
- The December statement renaming the Archewell Foundation to Archewell Philanthropies said the entity will allow the couple and their children to expand global philanthropic work as a family.
- Reporters note this is the first official communication to include Archie, 6, and Lilibet, 4, and commentators such as Richard Eden suggest it points to future roles for the children.
- The couple released a holiday photo showing clearer images of the children and a year-end video featuring them volunteering by baking cookies with a Los Angeles charity.
- Recent reports detail staffing changes at Archewell, including the departure of director Kristen Slevin, senior adviser James Bolt, and publicist Meredith Maines, with some outlets describing broader reductions.
- UK media report a new risk assessment on taxpayer-funded police protection for Sussex visits to Britain is under consideration, a decision that could shape potential family trips, though it has not been confirmed.
