Sussex Archwell Foundation Acquires Press Forward, Raising Concerns Over Media Influence

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have recently faced criticism for their controversial remarks about the royal family, leading to accusations of unpredictability and hostility.

As the couple continues to make bombshell claims against the royals since their move to the US in early 2020, royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams warns that King Charles is now confronted with a significant problem.

Fitzwilliams believes that the rift between the Sussexes and the royal family is unlikely to be resolved anytime soon, speculating that it could take years for reconciliation to occur.

The recent timing of Harry and Meghan's announcement regarding their lack of invitation to King Charles' 75th birthday celebrations, coinciding with the King's first speech opening Parliament as monarch, has further fueled doubts about their trustworthiness.

The future remains uncertain, with much depending on the progress of Harry's ongoing court cases.

This situation poses an unpleasant prospect for King Charles to deal with, who took the step of ending the tenure of the Sussexes at Frogmore after the release of Harry's memoir, “Spare.”

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's unpredictable and hostile nature adds to the complexity of the situation.

Adding to the controversy, rumors suggest that Prince Harry and Meghan are considering purchasing the Telegraph newspaper, potentially with the backing of a billionaire.

During a recent Katy Perry concert, Harry was seen sitting next to Citadel's Ken Griffin, who is part of a consortium bidding for the Telegraph.

While Harry himself is not involved in the consortium, Griffin, a Republican and builder of the USA's most expensive house near Mar-a-Lago, is aware of Harry's perceived weaknesses.

The Telegraph is known for its conservative stance, catering to the middle and upper classes in the UK.

Subscriptions are required to access its quality articles, and it strongly supports pro-life values and the royal family.

However, if the newspaper were to be purchased by American interests, it could potentially undergo a change in direction, aligning more with Harry and Meghan's views.

This shift could result in a loss of readership, as the conservative issues in the UK differ from those in the US.

In a related development, the Archewell Foundation, founded by Prince Harry and Meghan, has successfully acquired Press Forward.

This acquisition allows Meghan to exert greater control over her social media presence, as the foundation now supports Press Forward alongside other organizations through the Democracy Fund, which was founded by Pierre Omidyar, the eBay founder who also owns The Intercept media outlet.

Critics argue that Harry's attempts to portray this acquisition as a noble fight against the press are merely a smokescreen to stifle criticism and profit personally.

They point to his involvement with BetterUp, a platform that works with the US military and grants Harry access to veterans.

Additionally, Harry's connections with Press Forward, the Aspen Institute, and wealthy individuals like Pierre Omidyar raise concerns about his ability to engage in activities that a prince should not partake in, both in America and elsewhere.

The couple's actions have been viewed as hypocritical, as they continue to sue the British media for privacy invasion while simultaneously investing in other newspapers to generate income.

The purchase of Press Forward by the Sussex Archwell Foundation raises questions about their intentions and the extent of their influence over the media.

As the saga continues to unfold, the public remains captivated by the ongoing tensions between Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and the royal family.

The repercussions of their actions and the potential impact on the media landscape are yet to be fully realized.
