Quick Summary

Meghan and Harry are set to make their first joint public appearance since returning to the UK in Nottingham, visiting several charity organizations including a food project initiated after the Grenfell Tower tragedy. While Harry remains dedicated to his philanthropic work through charities like Invictus, Meghan sees herself more as a full-time mother and entrepreneur, with limited availability for public appearances. She intends to launch her new brand As Ever in the UK by year-end and is also considering a return to acting.

Story summary

On October 15, Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, made their first joint public appearance since returning to live in the UK in August. They visited Nottingham, a city with special significance as it was where they first appeared together after announcing their engagement in 2017. Despite being no longer active members of the royal family, the visit included stops at three charities focusing on youth support and community initiatives, mirroring traditional royal engagements. However, King Charles has stated that Harry and Meghan remain private citizens rather than working royals, causing some to question whether their activities are an attempt to recreate royal duties without official endorsement.
