Meghan Markle Is Not Planning Sussex Foundation Expansion on Royal Break
A source tells BAZAAR.com that prior to contrary reports, Duchess Meghan is not spending her break from royal duties planning the Stateside launch of the Sussex Royal Foundation.
Meghan alongside Prince Harry and baby Archie are reportedly spending the holidays in California, where Megan's mother, Doria Ragland, resides.
Prior to contrary reports yesterday, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, is not spending her six-week-long sabbatical from royal duties planning the Stateside launch of the Sussex Royal Foundation.
The Telegraph reported that Meghan would be spending part of her vacation time plotting the expansion of the royal charity program rather than relishing time with her family and friends in the States. Supposedly, HRH was in total “work mode,” hoping to finalize the U.S. launch of her and the Duke of Sussex’s foundation and aiming to make it “one of the biggest and most successful philanthropic organisations in the world.”
A source tells BAZAAR.com, however, “This story is a stretch. The couple are very much on a break.”
Since the start of the holiday season, the duke and duchess have been on a lengthy pause from royal duties, reportedly obtaining much-needed rest and relaxation in Meghan’s home country. A source previously told BAZAAR.com that the couple “plan to spend time as a family for their first break this year.”
The couple have managed to stay completely out of the spotlight since the beginning of their time off and will probably remain so until after Christmas, which—much to public surprise—they will not be spending with the queen at Sandringham Estate. Instead, they are reportedly spending the holiday in the duchess’s home state of California with her mother, Doria Ragland.
“Having spent the last two Christmases at Sandringham, Their Royal Highnesses will spend the holiday this year, as a new family, with the Duchess’ mother Doria Ragland,” a spokesperson for the Sussexes swiftly explained once the news was announced. “This decision is in line with precedent set previously by other members of the Royal Family, and has the support of Her Majesty The Queen.”
