Harry and Meghan Clarify 'Missing Millions' as King Charles Faces Criticism Over 'Secret Millions'
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have addressed the concerns surrounding their charitable donations, clearing up any confusion about the "missing millions" that made headlines earlier this year.
As they close out the year, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex released the 2024 Impact Report for their Archewell Foundation, offering transparency about their charitable contributions.
The foundation disclosed its 2023 tax records, revealing that of the over $5 million raised, $1.3 million was allocated to various charitable causes between January and December 2023, as reported by *People* Magazine.
According to the report, Archewell’s total revenue for the year amounted to $5.7 million, which will support ongoing initiatives and further expand its impact.
The report also addresses previous rumors about $4 million being unaccounted for in the foundation's 2022 tax return. It clarifies that this sum is fully accounted for in the 2023 filing.
Additionally, the filing confirmed that neither Meghan nor Harry receive any salary from the Archewell Foundation.
While the Sussexes clarified the situation regarding their "missing millions," King Charles and Prince William are now facing criticism for reportedly earning "secret millions" from their private estates. This controversy has sparked concerns about the use of public sector resources, including NHS hospitals, schools, and prisons.
An investigation by *Channel 4 Dispatches* and *The Sunday Times* uncovered that, although the Duchies of Cornwall and Lancaster, which fund Charles and William, are not directly supported by taxpayers, they still derive income from public services.
