Meghan Markle, Prince Harry Launch Archewell Foundation's Website Months After Royal Exit

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry officially launched the website of their new charity Archewell which they announced in April.

On Wednesday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's website for their new nonprofit organization went live. It happened months after Prince Harry and Markle stepped down from their royal duties and moved to the United States.

The website's homepage details the meaning of the foundation's name, and it shows "Arche," a Greek word for "source of action," and "Well," which means "a plentiful source or supply, a place we go to dig deep." The site also offers an email sign up option for those who want to receive emails about the foundation.

Prince Harry and Markle announced the name of their new foundation six months ago and explained the meaning behind its name, which is now reflected on the site. They also revealed at the time that it was their inspiration for their son Archie's name.

"We connected to this concept for the charitable organization we hoped to build one day, and it became the inspiration for our son’s name," the couple said in a statement.

"To do something of meaning, to do something that matters. Archewell is a name that combines an ancient word for strength and action, and another that evokes the deep resources we each must draw upon. We look forward to launching Archewell when the time is right."

Twitter users praised the name of the Sussexes' new foundation, with some saying it was "perfect" and "wonderful." However, their critics accused them of capitalizing on their child's name.

“Here we go... Capitalizing on the child no one is allowed to see. They are so predictable,” @LaurenCampHood wrote.

Some also questioned the timing of Prince Harry and Markle’s announcement because it happened when Prime Minister Boris Johnson was moved into the intensive care unit due to the coronavirus. Royal biographer Phil Dampier didn't think it was the best timing and even considered it "appalling."

"If I were Harry and Meghan I would have laid low until this situation (coronavirus) was over," Dampier told Daily Mail. "People everywhere are really concerned with dealing with this and it does not look good, however good the cause is."
