Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have been capturing global headlines over the past couple of months with their Netflix docuseries and Harry’s memoir, Spare.
Both projects broke records, with Harry and Meghan becoming the biggest debut for a documentary series on the streaming platform, while Spare became the fastest selling non-fiction book in history. With the runaway success, the Duke and Duchess have rewarded some of their hardworking staff at Archewell with promotions, while also bringing in new hires.

“We didn’t want to wait. We both wanted to start a family straightaway,” he explained. “We were working crazy hours, our jobs were demanding, the timing wasn’t ideal, but too bad. This had always been our main priority.”
