Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s fight back in ‘ludicrous’ missing millions claim
Sources close to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have hit back at “ludicrous” claims the couple’s charity Archewell has hidden charity funds in a ‘missing millions’ scandal.
MailOnline claimed today that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were given two grants of more than £4.5 million ($6 million) over the last two years – but both are missing from the charity’s latest 990 tax return.
However, Archewell told the publication that the records, which declared $2,000,911 in the latest return, are correct and the money will appear on the next tax return.
Express.co.uk launched its own investigation this morning and has found that the Sussexes’ records are 100% correct.
Fidelity Charitable’s 990 captures grants they made from July 2022 to June 2023.
All donations received in 2023 will appear on The Archewell Foundation’s 990 as standard at the end of this year.
“It’s so unfair to do this to a charity when they have done everything correctly,” said a source. “The claims are ludicrous because they [the Sussexes] have always been upfront and transparent about their finances.
