“After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution. We intend to step back as ‘senior’ members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent, while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen. It is with your encouragement, particularly over the last few years, that we feel prepared to make this adjustment. We now plan to balance our time between the United Kingdom and North America, continuing to honour our duty to The Queen, the Commonwealth, and our patronages. This geographic balance will enable us to raise our son with an appreciation for the royal tradition into which he was born, while also providing our family with the space to focus on the next chapter, including the launch of our new charitable entity. We look forward to sharing the full details of this exciting next step in due course, as we continue to collaborate with Her Majesty The Queen, The Prince of Wales, The Duke of Cambridge and all relevant parties. Until then, please accept our deepest thanks for your continued support.” – The Duke and Duchess of Sussex For more information, please visit sussexroyal.com (link in bio) Image © PA

Harry Walker Agency dikenal sebagai agensi yang menaungi banyak pembicara ternama seperti Barack Obama dan Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton dan Bill Clinton hingga Oprah Winfrey. Agensi ini dikenal mematok biaya 1 juta dolar AS untuk pembicara-pembicara yang sedang populer.

Dalam berpidato, Meghan dan Harry dikabarkan akan berfokus pada topik-topik yang penting untuk kehidupan mereka dan juga dunia. Topik-topik ini kemungkinan besar berkaitan dengan isu sosial, seperti keadilan rasial, kesetaran gender, kesehatan mental, masalah perempuan dan lingkungan.

“Banyak bidang dan topik yang dibahas dalam pidato akan berkaitan dengan dasar dan misi Archewell, organisasi baru mereka yang berfokus pada upaya filantropis mereka,” ujar seorang sumber, seperti dilansir Page Six.

Meghan dan Harry telah mencari pekerjaan sejak mereka mundur dari anggota senior keluarga kerajaan Inggris. Selain menjadi pembicara, Meghan dan Harry juga sedang merencanakan proyek pembuatan dokumenter ketika mereka melakukan kegiatan sukarelawan.

Having attended the 10th Annual One Young World opening ceremony on Tuesday, The Duchess of Sussex was joined today by The Duke of Sussex for a round table discussion on gender equity with OYW and Queen’s Commonwealth Trust young leaders. Over the last few days, these young leaders became @OneYoungWorld ambassadors with the intention to return to their communities and further existing initiatives to help change the world for the better. This year OYW partnered with the @Queens_Commonwealth_Trust, of which The Duke and Duchess are President and Vice-President respectively, to provide scholarships to young leaders driving positive social impact in the Commonwealth. This was the most exciting collaboration between two groups The Duchess is passionate about and has been working with for some time.

Belum lama ini, hubungan persahabatan antara Meghan dan Jessica Mulroney juga sempat mendapatkan sorotan. 

Persahabatan mereka dikabarkan retak setelah Meghan tak memberikan ucapan selamat ulang tahun untuk anak Jessica, Ivy, yang ke tujuh tahun. Jessica mengatakan persahabatan mereka mungkin benar-benar berakhir.

Persahabatan Jessica dan Meghan dikabarkan mulai bermasalah setelah Jessica tersandung sebuah skandal. Saat itu, influencer berkulit hitam Sasha Exeter mengajak orang-orang dengan pengaruh besar di media sosial untuk menyuarakan Black Lives Matter.

Namun, Jessica merasa unggahan tersebut menyinggung dirinya sehingga dia memberikan ancaman kepada Sasha. Jessica sempat meminta maaf kepada publik sebanyak tiga kali akibat permasalahan ini.
