Enrique y Meghan dejan las redes sociales Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have reportedly quit social media for good over

Los duques de Sussex, Enrique y Meghan, se darán un tiempo de las redes sociales y «no planean» recurrir a Twitter o Facebook para promover la labor de su nueva fundación Archewell, según informó este domingo «The Sunday Times».

El periódico, que cita fuentes próximas a la pareja, radicada en Estados Unidos, señala que también «es muy improbable» que regresen a las redes a título personal, tras los ataques sufridos desde que se casaron.

La decisión de los Sussex, que hace un año anunciaron que se distanciaban de la monarquía británica para impulsar sus propios proyectos y su independencia financiera, marca un nuevo paso en esa separación, apunta el rotativo.

Antes de casarse con el príncipe Enrique el 19 de mayo de 2018, Meghan Markle, tenía mucha presencia en las redes, con 1,9 millones de seguidores en Instagram; 350.000 en Twitter y 800.000 «me gusta» en Facebook, apunta «The Sunday Times».

También tenía una página web y un blog sobre estilo de vida, Tig, donde promovía empresas y productos que apoyaba y ofrecía consejos de alimentación y viajes.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have more than 10 million followers on their @sussexroyal Instagram account, despite it not being updated since March 2020, the month they formally ended their run as senior royals. Now new word is coming that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are reportedly not returning to social media in any capacity.

A source close to the couple told The Sunday Times that the duo, who have moved to California since their royal break, have “no plans” to use social media even as they launch their new endeavor, the Archewell Foundation. The source also said that the couple were “very unlikely” to use social media in any sort of personal capacity.

For those who take an interest in the couple, this should come as no surprise. Markle has previously commented on her decision not to have a social media account, saying in a virtual chat with Fortune in September that, “For my own selfpreservation, I have not been on social media for a very long time.” She added, “I’ve made a personal choice to not have any account, so I don’t know what’s out there, and many ways that’s helpful for me.” Prior to her engagement to Prince Harry, Markle did have her own Instagram account as well as a now-shuttered blog called The Tig.

Markle has also been very frank about the hate she has received online and how damaging that has been. She most recently shared her experience as a guest — alongside her husband — on the podcast Teenager Therapy.
