The attorney general of the State of California has included the organization on the list of debtors, so they will not be able to “request or disburse charitable funds” until the existing debt is paid. At the moment, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have not commented on the matter despite the criticism.
After their media tour of Nigeria, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are in the eye of the storm after the Archwell Foundation was declared "delinquent" by the United States Justice.
It was the Attorney General of the State of California, Rob Bonta, who included the organization on the list of debtors, so they will not be able to “request or disburse charitable funds” until the existing debt is paid. From the Foundation, they have assured that it is a misunderstanding, the product of an administrative problem that caused the payments to not arrive on time.
Apparently, the check would have been sent by mail, something normal in California when paying bills and taxes, but it would have been lost, so Archwell decided to send the checkbook again, hoping that this time it would arrive at its destination. It is the last detail that social networks exploded against the couple, who they accused of lying to cover up their lack of solvency.
It should be noted that, as a result of the bad press surrounding Harry and Meghan, the Foundation went from receiving more than 12 million dollars in donations to just over 2 million.
For the moment, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have not referred to the controversy, thus dismissing the accusations. The marriage comes from experiencing a great mass bath in Nigeria after the rudeness suffered by the prince in London where neither Charles III nor William received him privately despite his request for an audience with both.
Although it would not be in their plans to have an active role in the Royal Family again, the Sussexes are close to the Palace although its doors remain closed to them, who now divide their time between raising their children and producing three new series for Netflix: one about polo, one about gardening and one about cooking.
