Meghan Markle launched her As Ever brand and Netflix series With Love, Meghan, but Prince Harry has reportedly planned to launch a commercial venture of his own. In recent months, Meghan Markle has appeared in a backseat.
From launching her Netflix show to selling out the products from her As Ever, Meghan Markle has not been far from the spotlight of late. And the Duchess of Sussex has continued to build her business empire with her podcast on female business founders and by posting snippets of her life on Instagram.
But while Meghan has basked in the limelight, the same can’t be said for Prince Harry, who appears to have taken a back seat after the couple appear to have decided to pursue different career paths. It has led some to label Harry as Meghan’s ‘spare’ in a jibe about his status as a spare to his heir to the throne older brother Prince William.
However, according to the Mail on Sunday, that could be set to change as he attempts to find a ‘new purpose’. The publication reports that Harry will be launching his own commercial venture in the next few months and the same time as concentrating on his Invictus Games Foundation – and it will be one of the first tasks for the Sussex’s newly formed team of advisors.
A source said: “Harry is unkindly described as the ‘spare’ to Meghan’s endeavours. In reality, he has been giving her the space to flourish. Now it is his time to throw himself into exciting new work. Invictus will always come first, but he has also been working on commercial ideas of his own.” The Mirror has contacted the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s representatives for comment.
Harry’s commercial venture comes after it was revealed that he left a charity “completely gobsmacked” with an unanticipated move that follows his wife Meghan.
It emerged that the Duke of Sussex has thanked a community project based in Nottingham by making a ‘significant’ donation to help fund its services. The charity, Himmah, says the undisclosed sum will fund more than 650 much-needed food parcels for vulnerable families in the city.
Harry’s donation comes four years after the Duchess of Sussex gave £10, 000 to The Royal Foundation to support the charity’s efforts to build and support the Salaam Shalom Kitchen, a joint project between Jewish and Muslim communities that provides hot meals and groceries.
The Radford-area organization Himmah, which works to combat racism, social exclusion, and is based in Gamble Street, described Harry’s donation as “hugely humble.” When we received the email, Himmah’s director, Sajid Mohammed, said, “I could not believe it. It’s amazing to have been chosen by such a famous royal once, but Prince Harry’s support also made us completely enthralled.
Harry stated in a letter to Himmah that the organization had the honor of visiting and supporting the town of Nottingham for more than ten years.
“It deserves praise and recognition for the incredible work Himmah does to combat food insecurity, poverty, and social exclusion. I’m pleased to be able to contribute a small amount to your effort to unite communities by providing opportunities and support for those in need.
