In addition, The National Theatre, which Meghan became patron of in 2019, noted it “is very grateful for the support offered by the Duchess of Sussex throughout the course of her patronage.”
“The Duchess championed our work with communities and young people across the U.K., and our mission to make theatre accessible to all,” a tweeted statement read. “As Buckingham Palace have stated, the process of appointing a new patron is ongoing and will be announced in due course.”
The Association of Commonwealth Universities, a patronage Meghan also inherited from Her Majesty in 2019, will revert back to The Queen, as well. In addition, honorary military appointments held by Harry—including associations with The Royal Marines, RAF Honington and Royal Navy Small Ships and Diving—will be returned to The Queen.
Harry and Meghan will still work with a number of the organizations. For instance, Meghan, who is pregnant, will remain patron of Mayhew and Smart Works Charity, and Harry will continue to serve as patron of Sentabale and the Invictus Games Foundation.
