Meanwhile, the story that has everyone buzzing is that Harry and Meghanhave discreetly launched a revamped website, transitioning from SussexRoyal.com to the new Sussex.com. The updated site introduces visitors to the couple's bios, along with links to their Archewell Foundation and Archewell Productions, and adopts a sleek dark navy and beige color scheme.
The site also features a news section highlighting their recent endeavors, including Harry's presentation of the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year award to Cameron Heyward. A message on the old site redirects users to the new platform, emphasizing the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's work before relocating to the United States.
At the top of the Sussex.com homepage, their coat of arms is displayed, signifying "The office of Prince Harry & Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex." A backdrop photo from the 2023 Invictus Games, which also served as their holiday card image last year, graces the homepage.
Harry's bio describes him as "a humanitarian, military veteran, mental health advocate, and environmental campaigner," proudly mentioning his bestselling memoir, "Spare."
In an interesting departure from tradition on the updated website, Meghan Markle adopts a simpler identification in her biography, being referred to simply as Meghan, a move away from the formal use of her full name and title. Just Meghan, no Markle. Also, in Meghan's profile, the only mention of the royal family reads: "In 2018, Meghan married Prince Harry, becoming the Duchess of Sussex. Only 25 of teh 590 words are about her TV career. Meghan's bio reads..
Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex is a feminist and champion of human rights and gender equity. Her lifelong advocacy for women and girls remains a constant thread in her humanitarian and business ventures. She has been named one of the most influential women in the world in rankings including TIME Magazine’s Most Influential People, The Financial Times’ 25 Most Influential Women, Variety Power of Women, and British Vogue’s Vogue 25."
Despite stepping down as senior royals, their children are referred to as "Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet" on the website. However, the couple's self-promotion on the site has drawn mixed reactions on Twitter, with some criticizing their use of royal titles and others lauding Meghan for showcasing her accomplishments.
