Overview
- Harry and Meghan said their Archewell Foundation is now Archewell Philanthropies, stating the entity will allow the couple and their children to expand global philanthropic work as a family.
- The announcement marked the first official mention of Archie and Lilibet in the couple’s plans, following holiday materials that showed the children helping bake cookies for a Thanksgiving charity event.
- UK officials have asked the Risk Management Board to reassess Prince Harry’s threat level, with a decision expected soon, according to multiple reports.
- Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond said a favorable outcome would remove a major obstacle to more frequent UK visits and could support the gradual thaw after Harry’s private meeting with King Charles last year.
- Archewell confirmed leadership changes with James Holt stepping down from running the organization to serve as a senior philanthropic advisor supporting planned humanitarian trips in 2026, as commentators and an unnamed friend questioned the shift to involving the children.
