Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are stepping into a new phase with Archewell Philanthropies, and sources claim that their kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, will be part of it. The couple recently reworked their foundation into Archewell Philanthropies. Now, people close to them suggest that the Sussexes want the organization to feel more like a family effort than a business move.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry will include their kids into Archewell’s activities, per source
OK! Magazine exclusively reported that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s kids, Archie, 6, and Lilibet, 4, will start appearing in small ways as the couple expands Archewell Philanthropies. One insider told OK! that the couple wants their kids involved early.
Besides, the goal is simply to show the public that their work “extends beyond themselves,” with a source claiming that the couple “aim to demonstrate” lessons about kindness and giving back. And they want their children to learn this lesson while growing up in the public eye.
The children have already joined their parents during charitable moments. Last November, the family visited Our Big Kitchen in Los Angeles to help prepare meals, and a source who was there said, “Archie and Lilibet were fully included in the activities. They pitched in wherever possible.” Moreover, having the kids around made the visit feel more personal.
The Sussexes launched the original foundation in 2020 after moving to California, and their updated website now describes Archewell Philanthropies as the home for their global charitable efforts. Besides, it notes that the new direction allows them and their kids to take part together.
While no one seems sure of the kids’ roles in Archewell Philanthropies, sources claimed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle expect them to join them at some events and continue helping during community visits. Meanwhile, another insider explained that the intention is to teach Archie and Lilibet service in a way that fits their age and everyday life.
