Meghan Markle and Prince Harry issued their first statement after Prince Andrew announced he was giving up his royal title: Duke of York.
The California-based royal couple issued the statement through their Archewell Foundation.
The charity shared the statement on its website, saying: “For the second year, the Archewell Foundation is proud to support the George Zajfen Tennis Tournament in Los Angeles – a moving event that brings the community together in support of the Alliance for Children’s Rights.”
Prince Harry and Meghan attended the tournament, celebrating the Alliance’s notable impact and its continued commitment to strengthening families throughout Los Angeles.
The annual George Zajfen Tennis Tournament raises essential funds to advance the Alliance’s mission of ensuring safe homes, quality education and comprehensive support for children and families in need.
They said: “At the Archewell Foundation, we remain committed to uplifting communities and are proud to support the Children’s Rights Alliance’s dedication to ensuring children receive the support and care they need.”
Prince Andrew renounced his title as Duke of York on Friday under pressure from his brother King Charles, amid new revelations about his links to Jeffrey Epstein.
“I will no longer use my title or the honors bestowed upon me,” Andrew, 65, said in a bombshell announcement.
He said his decision came after talks with the head of state, King Charles III.
