Meghan, who was, at the time, a working royal, suspended public appearances for four months.<\/p>\n<p>Now that the pair have split from the royal family, they are not obligated to make any public appearances on behalf of the royal family and can take any length of parental leave their current jobs are willing to support. At the moment, both are reportedly working on independent projects with entertainment and retail companies \u2014 Netflix, Spotify, and Proctor &#038; Gamble, to name a few \u2014 and Prince Harry is working remotely for tech startup BetterUp as its \u201cchief impact officer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There, he is expected to offer input on \u201cproduct strategy decisions and charitable contributions, and advocate publicly on topics related to mental health,\u201d according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2021\/03\/23\/tech\/prince-harry-betterup-tech-startup\/index.html\">report from CNN<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Meghan just published a children\u2019s book, \u201cThe Bench,\u201d which is expected to hit store shelves this summer.<\/p>\n<p>The couple\u2019s charitable foundation, Archewell, will continue to operate in their absence.<\/p>\n<p>The pair announced that they were expecting their second child earlier this year, on Valentine\u2019s Day, and revealed that they were expecting a girl during a controversial interview with Oprah Winfrey, in which the pair also alleged that their \u201cMegxit\u201d break from the royals was partially motivated by what they took to be racial animus. Meghan implied, in the interview, that her son Archie was not given the title of \u201cPrince\u201d because of his mixed-race heritage.<\/p>\n<p>A source close to the couple later admitted that the suggestion may have been in error, as Archie, like other royal great-grandchildren not in direct line of succession to the throne, was denied the title by an early 20th-century order, and was never going to be called \u201cPrince Archie.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The couple welcomed Lilibet Diana on June 4th, they noted on Archewell\u2019s website.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn June 4<sup>th<\/sup>, we were blessed with the arrival of our daughter, Lili,\u201d they said. \u201cShe is more than we could have ever imagined, and we remain grateful for the love and prayers we\u2019ve felt from across the globe.
