PRINCE HARRY AND MEGHAN MARKLE LAUNCH NEW WEBSITE

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are ready to get more “personal” and completely rebranded their website.

Although their Archewell foundation is still intact, their brand new site, Sussex.com, replaced the Archewell.com website.

Fans and followers of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex can now visit their new site for “personal updates for the couple.”

The new site has gotten lots of backlash from royal fans and experts alike. Especially since the late Queen Elizabeth banned the couple from using the “SussexRoyal” brand after they stepped down as working members of the royal family in 2020, MailOnline reports.

According to The Sun, Harry and Meghan are allowed to use their Duke and Duchess titles but cannot use HRH in any new financial endeavors.

USING THEIR ROYAL COAT OF ARMS

It seems, however, that the couple did decide to use their royal connections to their advantage as they opted to add their royal coat of arms on their new website.

The Sun reports that the Duchess worked closely with the College of Arms in London to create the design, which was first revealed after their royal wedding in May 2018.

Traditionally, when a royal gets married, the reigning monarch awards the couple with a conjugal Coat of Arms. Usually, it’s a combination of their respective family’s Coat of Arms, Hello! Magazine explains.

The lion represents the Duke, while the songbird represents Meghan, the publication explains.

Beneath the shield is California’s state flower, the golden poppy. Wintersweet can also be seen as it was depicted on the duchess’ wedding veil.
