Prince Harry and Meghan Markle unveil new MWX Foundation

‘Sussex Royal’ is officially no more, as Prince Harry and wife Meghan Markle unveil their brand new MWX Foundation.

The change of the foundation title is a result of the Sussexes agreeing to stop using the 'Sussex Royal' brand after officially stepping away from senior royal duties in April this year.

Paperwork has been published revealing that the formal change of name to MWX Foundation was registered on 5 August, the Daily Mail reports.

Documents filed on The Foundation of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex at Companies House also revealed Meghan and five other directors had stepped down from their positions, which leaves Prince Harry as the sole director.

And what does MWX stand for – some reports suggest it’s ‘Markle Windsor’.

Harry and Meghan had to give up their royal titles and public funding after officially stepping back as senior royals.

The couple would no longer be referred to as his/her ‘royal highness’ and would not be allowed to use the term ‘royal’ in any branding or naming going forward.

A statement attributed to Buckingham Palace said: “the Sussexes will not use their HRH titles as they are no longer working members of the Royal Family.”

“As agreed in this new arrangement, they understand that they are required to step back from royal duties, including official military appointments. They will no longer receive public funds for royal duties.”
