Harry, Meghan shut down their Sussex Royal charity as they shift focus to the eco-tourism scheme ‘Travalyst’
Los Angeles: Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have officially shut down their Sussex Royal charity.
The couple have filed official paperwork with Companies House to dissolve the royal foundation as they shift their focus to the Prince’s eco-tourism scheme ‘Travalyst’, reports suggest.
The company - which has been set up independently - hopes to help the hard-hit tourism industry survive the coronavirus crisis.
The couple’s move to disband their charitable organisation follows the Queen’s decision that Harry and Meghan can no longer use the word ‘royal’ in their ‘branding’. An insider told Newsweek: ‘Following previous announcements that The Duke and Duchess will not be using the name ‘Sussex Royal’ and will not continue with a foundation in its name, paperwork has been filed with Companies House and the Charity Commission to formally close the charity down.
‘This will appear on the online public record in the coming days. The charity formally enters a period of “solvent liquidation”.’
