Meghan Markle breaks silence on Sussex.com website after backlash: ‘I’m a fan’

Meghan Markle has defended her and Prince Harry’s new Sussex.com website after being hit with major backlash for using their royal titles on the site.

On Monday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex awoke to a shiny new online domain that features each of their bios as well as links to their Archewell Foundation and Archewell Productions organizations.

But their new rebrand seemingly struck a nerve among the public, who noticed that they used their royal titles at free will — despite quitting royal life in 2020.

The “Suits” alum has now responded to the backlash after users slammed the runaway royals for flattering themselves on the website.

“There is a reason I have worked with Ryan and the talented team at Article for a decade: their attention to detail, their creativity and care, and the thoughtful approach to design as well as to the user experience,” Markle said in a review on Article’s website.

“They’re not just designers; they are collaborators who elevate your ideas into visual identities. They’re a very special company. Plus they’re Canadian, so I’m a fan.”

The Post has reached out to reps for the Sussexes for comment.

The Sussexes were labeled “ridiculous” for using the Royal Coat of Arms at the top of the homepage with text underneath that reads, “The office of Prince Harry & Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.” However, others applauded them for making a “fresh” change to their online domain.

The foundation’s website has also gotten a face-lift, to coordinate with the new hub’s dark navy and beige theme.

Additionally, the Sussex.com site offers a news tab that summarizes the pair’s achievements.

The newest entry is a write-up of Harry presenting the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year to Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Cameron Heyward at last week’s NFL Honors.

A photo of the couple smiling and cheering at the 2023 Invictus Games acts as a backdrop for the homepage. It’s the same image they used for their holiday card last year.

Harry’s online bio calls him a “humanitarian, military veteran, mental health advocate, and environmental campaigner.” It also boasts about his 2023 bombshell memoir, “Spare.”

“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,” the bio adds.

Markle’s bio describes her as “a feminist and champion of human rights and gender equity.” It also mentions her role in the “hit series, ‘Suits.’”

“She 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,” the Duchess’ bio adds.

To boot, both of their pages refer to their two kids as “Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.”
