Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s charity restructure has resulted in staff redundancies, it has been reported. It was revealed last week that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were renaming their Archewell Foundation as Archewell Philanthropies – and moving to a “fiscal sponsorship model”. Now it has been revealed that, among the restructuring, three staffers have been let go from their jobs.

Harry and Meghan set up the foundation, which has the mission statement “Show up, do good”, after stepping down from their royal duties and moving to Los Angeles in 2020. It was one of the first projects they set up after quitting their royal roles.

A statement said: “The move toward a fiscal sponsor operating model does mean that some staff redundancies are inevitable, particularly with junior admin roles.

“We will not be discussing these personnel details further, other than to say that we are honored to have worked with incredibly talented and caring people who dedicate themselves to helping others.” The Mirror has contacted Archewell Philanthropies for comment.

It was announced on Friday that the duke and duchess’s joint charity, the Archewell Foundation, will be renamed Archewell Philanthropies as it marks five years since it was founded. The charity this year has advocated for safer digital spaces and the responsible development of artificial intelligence (AI). It has also funded support for children affected by conflict in Gaza and Ukraine.

Archewell takes its name from “arche”, the ancient Greek word meaning “source of action”, and “well”, symbolising “a plentiful source or supply, a place we go to dig deep”.

A spokeswoman for Harry and Meghan said: “This next chapter allows Prince Harry and Meghan, Duke and Duchess of Sussex, to broaden their global philanthropic efforts as a family, with meaningful reach and maximum impact, grounded in the same values, partnerships, and their commitment to show up and do good.”

News of the new name came just hours before a photo of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex with their children was shared by Meghan alongside a “happy holidays” message.

Meghan posted a photo on her Instagram account on Friday showing the family of four on a small bridge surrounded by greenery, with her bending down to touch heads with Princess Lilibet and holding hands, while Prince Archie has his hands around Harry’s waist. The caption read: “Happy Holidays! From our family to yours.” The couple also posted a video on their website to mark the festive season.

On their website, they wrote: “On behalf of the office of Prince Harry and Meghan, Duke and Duchess of Sussex, and Archewell, we wish you a very happy holiday season and a joyful new year.”

A video on the site included video clips of the couple during events this year, including giving speeches, dancing and hugging others during sections with the captions: Responding to Global Crisis; Supporting Women and Girls; Protecting Families Online and Show Up, Do Good.

In a sweet Instagram post shared with her followers, Hollyoaks actress Jessamy Stodart revealed that she is expecting her second child with her husband Ryan O’Gorman.

Jessamy Stoddart has announced she is expecting her second child with husband Ryan O’Gorman via a sweet social media post. The 32 year old actress who plays Liberty Savage in the TV soap took to Instagram and wrote: “So incredibly lucky to be growing a little brother or sister for Joni.”

The cute caption was accompanied by a series of pictures sharing the happy news. One picture showed a heart shaped bauble hanging from the couple’s Christmas tree, which read: “Baby O’Gorman. Due May 2026.”

A copy of the couple’s baby scan was visible in the picture enclosed in the bauble. In a mirror selfie, Jessamy was seen lovingly touching her growing baby bump in another image. The side of the snap showed the excited star, who was wearing a black top that sat on top of her bump.

And it didn’t take long before her post was inundated with comments, congratulating the star and her husband. Former Hollyoaks star Nikki Sanderson wrote: “Amazing news!!!! So happy for you all.”

“Ahhh, this is great news!!!” wrote Kimberly Hart-Simpson. I love you all the most. Carrie Hope Fletcher also said, “EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Congratulations, gorgeous!!!” “Congratulations,” added Lucy Fallon.

And her supporters congratulated her quickly as well. Oh lovely, one person said. Happy hun … I’m certain that Hollyoaks water contains something.

Another person praised the news as “the most beautiful.” Ryan and Joni, you two deserve a lot of congratulations. And a third person expressed his happiness for the entire group by saying, “This is SOOOOO happy!” Congratulations for all of my love.

By the time Jessamy and Ryan had tied the knot in 2021, they had already given the news that they were expecting their first child. The TV star shared the birth of her daughter Joni in January 2023.

And she later said, “Our little girl,” when she shared a picture of her new arrival. Joni Drew O’Gorman 04/01/2023 8lb4. A rainbow appears after every storm, and this rainbow was born on the anniversary of our first finding out that we were pregnant.

She continued: “We are besotted. @lwhhomebirthteam & @liverpoolwomens I owe you the world xxx.” Jessamy’s character had gone through her fair share of ups and downs since joining the show.

Liberty had planned to have a baby with her half-sister, Sienna, but she unexpectedly made the decision to keep the biological child. However, she experienced postpartum psychosis as a result of believing that Sienna would attempt to flee with her child.

In an exclusive chat with Mirror Online, Jessamy explained: “All Liberty wants is for Faith to be safe. She is her number one priority, she just needs to shut out the noise and listen to her instincts.”

She continued, “Senna is persistent, out of all of whom, I believe, will be most likely to get there eventually.” Their relationship is so strong despite Liberty’s concerns for her.

The path to recovery is a long way away, she continued. The heartbreaking storyline will stick with Hollyoaks fans forever thanks to the multiple scenes that played out over the course of several weeks.

Jessamy re-entered the show in 2018; She had previously appeared in numerous theater productions, including Legally Blonde and Mack and Mabel, before transitioning to TV acting.

A former Strictly Come Dancing star broke down in tears as he revealed that he attempted suicide after being the witness to a murder when he was a teenager.

Tyler West, who competed on Strictly in 2022, spoke about how seeing the violent attack left him with “PTSD that I just couldn’t get rid of” on Paul C. Brunson’s We Need To Talk podcast. The 29 year old shared that what he saw still affects him and drove him to attempt suicide at one point in his life.

“I can’t talk about it, and that’s probably the worst decision I’ve ever made, like not talking about it,” was my response to it all. Tyler spoke in a sentimental manner. Let’s sweep it under the carpet until it was unavoidable because it had accumulated a lot, as it seemed like it was just.

“And then it all came out at once in a number of different ways, making it so difficult for me to try to kill myself,” she said. Really challenging work was done. He continued, “He claimed that he had walked and ended up on top of a bridge.”

“I can’t recall how long I spent crossing this bridge. I have no idea. My phone had died. Everything . I had no idea what I was going to do when it must have been about half-four or five in the morning.

“But I was so depressed and thought, “I can’t stop thinking about this.” I simply need to unwind for a moment. One vehicle passed just past the right, exactly? The vehicle also sounded. I said, “You’re not going to do this,” and I was right. You can’t, I told you. I thought, “No way, can you please? ” I returned home. I slept in my bed, I awoke, and I just carried on with my day.

Tyler also discussed what transpired when he was 14 years old. He claims that he witnessed a confrontation between two “local alcoholics” from his bedroom window, and that one man grabbed a knife and slashed the other’s neck.

The man continued to slash and stabbing while his mother called the police, according to his mother. As two more men had left an apartment, Tyler recalls feeling “frozen” in place before preventing his mother, a nurse, from helping the victim.

Tyler struggled with a poor mental health after the murder. He explained that he couldn’t watch knife-related scenes in movies with a fork and a knife. He said, “My partner Molly hides my eyes even to this day.” In the same way, he was unable to be in a setting where he was persuaded that someone was about to pass away.

Tyler continued to claim that talking about his experiences has become his “biggest strength” after years of bottling everything up. He said to Paul, “I see all of these things, and I think about those times because they help me get there today, like they help me advance.” They are actually what makes me strongest. And talking about things is where I find my greatest strength.

The mother-of-two wrote, “In Memory of Guy,” in a statement. I purchased a beagle from a Canadian dog rescue in 2015. He had a few days to live at a kill shelter in Kentucky. I swooped on him. and smitten with love. Because he was so young and frail, they called him “the little guy,” so I gave him the name “Guy.” And he was the most ideal man a girl could have asked for.

You saw a lot of him on Instagram and The Tig, according to the post. When I became a mother at Suits, he was there with me when I got engaged (and then married). He was there for me throughout every situation, whether it was peaceful, chaotic, or comforting. “

Meghan thanked celebrity guru Noel Fitzpatrick for her special thanks, saying, “He had a terrible accident that left him unable to leave the clinic for a while. Dr. Noel Fitzpatrick assured him that he could walk again despite doctors’ predictions that he would never walk again. After hours, H and I would drive late at night to see Guy as he recuperated in Surrey for months.

Noel and his team, the staff at Queen West Animal Hospital in TO, our current vets, my friends, and the community, thank you for loving him so. I hope you will understand why I am so devastated by his passing because many of you will now see Guy in this new series. You might also develop a romantic inclination.

Noel now opens up about Meghan and Harry’s behind-the-scenes interactions, recalling his invaluable assistance to Gus’ incredible recovery. After Noel received a call from the Duchess, the Sussexes made a visit to the vet’s office in 2017.

However, the practice wasn’t all about serious talk. After Gus’ op, the celebrity vet even shared a “sweet” note with the couple and ate cake with them. The Duke and Duchess were seated on the floor, he said. We had a cake. Guy was fixed. He lived until January of this year, and Meghan gave me a sweet note of gratitude. “

He said, “I was wondering, what is the farmer’s son doing here?” Why am I here, exactly? It resembled a true instance of imposter syndrome. I genuinely felt honored, but I still made the decision to leave. Noel continued, “It seemed to me as though I didn’t know anyone.”

Meghan also acknowledged that she had “cried too many tears,” the kind that causes you to get in the shower in the hope that the running water on your face will somehow make you ignore them or pretend to be unaware.
