More Sussex 'Ridiculousness': Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Roasted Over Their New Website
Despite recreating their brand's website, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were roasted over the page's style and content.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have dropped the "Royal" in SussexRoyal.com in a brand new bid to relaunch their brand on a sparkling new website — but the new design and content of the page are not being received adoringly by everyone.
"Umm, these two nincompoops do realize they are not 'Sussex,' right? The gall of buying Sussex.com, and including a royal crest, though they hate the royals, is ridiculous," one observer on X tweeted when sharing their take on the new website.
"'The Office of The Duke and Duchess of Sussex,' Grandiose, arrogant & self-serving," another X user pointed out. "If this isn’t an attempt to pre-empt their anticipated removal from the royal family website (and other actions), it should be the catalyst to do so. Get on with it."
There was some praise to be found as well on the new digital relaunch from Team Sussex.
"Meghan outlines all the work she’s done throughout her life. I’m so proud of her for doing this. She’s taking control of her life. She doesn’t owe anything to anyone, and she wants you to know that yes, her children are in fact a prince and princess," a third person shared.
Another highlighted how "the Sussex.com website is going to make a lot of people cry, and I am here for it. However, I am so proud of Harry & Meghan for doing things the way they see fit & having some of the best people working for them. Onwards and Upwards! 2024 is our year to celebrate them!"
If interested browsers click on the old website, they get a message that reads: "This site was established in 2020 and sets out the work streams of Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex prior to their move to the United States," before prompting readers to a link to the new page.
If royal critics were hoping to see an absence of the duo's regal styles and titles, they will be sorely disappointed as the couple's royal coat of arms issued in 2018 appears at the top of the page, along with the pair sharing: "The office of Prince Harry & Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex."
The fiery-haired prince refers to himself as a "humanitarian, military veteran, mental health advocate, and environmental campaigner," in his bio, while a section praising his memoir states: "The Duke is the New York Times Bestselling author of Spare, a memoir of his life told with compassion, vulnerability, and unflinching honesty. Spare was the publishing industry’s fastest-selling non-fiction book, selling more than 1.4 million copies on its first day of publication."
Meghan's section refers to the ex-actress as "a feminist and champion of human rights and gender equity." The bio further shares how Meghan "has written for a number of publications and created the lifestyle website, 'The Tig'. The Duchess of Sussex guest edited British Vogue in July 2019, which was the fastest-selling copy in the magazine’s history."
