Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Sign New Speaking Deal After Royal Step Back

Stepping back into the spotlight! Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are moving forward with their post-senior royal plans.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Rocky Royal Path

The couple have signed a speaking engagement contract with Harry Walker Agency, the Los Angeles Times reported on Wednesday, June 24. The New York-based agency represents Barack Obama and Michelle Obama and Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton among others.

According to their deal, Harry, 35, and Meghan, 38, will take part in moderated discussions and keynote speeches with trade associations, corporations and community forums. The topics will include racial justice, gender equality, environmental concerns and mental health, which have traditionally been a part of the couple’s platform and represented in their charity efforts.

Royals Get Candid About Their Mental Health Struggles

The new gig will mark the pair’s return to public service following their last engagement at the annual Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey, as a part of their last duties for the royal family in March.

Although the duo announced their step back as senior royals in January, and moved to Los Angeles in March with their son, Archie, they’ve continued their charitable ventures in both the U.K. and U.S.

Earlier this month, Harry and Meghan sent a letter to the charitable organization StreetGames, which has been giving fresh meals to young people in need across London amid the coronavirus pandemic. The meal service has been helped by Hubb Community Kitchen, which is another charity the pair support.

“We wanted to write and express our heartfelt thanks to the team at StreetGames following their support delivering Hubb Community Kitchen meals throughout London,” the letter, which is dated June 19, stated. “To know that North Paddington Youth Club, Solidarity Sports and St. Matthews Project distributed hundreds of freshly prepared meals across their networks of young people over the last few months is fantastic.”

Harry, who has been struggling to adjust to his new life in the U.S., has also been spotted on more than one occasion with the former actress donating and aiding L.A.-based charities amid the pandemic.

“Harry and Meghan’s No. 1 priority right now is helping those affected by the virus, especially the vulnerable,” a source told Us Weekly exclusively in April, following the duo’s work with Project Angel Food.

The same month, the pair announced their new nonprofit organization, Archewell, along with new projects and a fresh website. The site will focus on “information in the field of nutrition, general health and mental health,” they told the Telegraph in April.

The Archewell foundation is set to focus on “organizing and conducting support groups of persons in need.”

Red Carpet Date! Sophia Bush and Grant Hughes Attend WHCA Dinner

Finding The One! Sophia Bush has kept her romance with Grant Hughes relatively private since the pair were first spotted together in Malibu in May 2020. However, the FocusMotion Health founder has shared a few photos of the couple. Ever since landing the role of Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill in 2003, Bush’s personal life has made headlines. That is something that the actress and activist has intentionally changed, she explained in June 2021. “It’s hard to have nothing that’s yours. And when you are a person who lives in the public eye, everybody wants to pick over everything and that can be really tricky,” the False Positive actress told Entertainment Tonight at the time. “I also grew up in the early aughts when girls were raked over the coals for any choices that they made. And I just was like, ‘I don’t think I like this.’ I didn’t like having my private life lied about. There were times where someone would send through an article and be like, ‘Well, supposedly you’re dating t...
