Harry and Meghan focus on social media 'agenda'
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are seemingly moving forward with their charitable foundation Archewell.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who will be hosting a series of talks for Time Magazine, have included the topic 'Engineering a Better World' which will focus on how social media and technology can be used to make the world a better place.
The topic is expected to be one of the main focuses of their work through Archewell.
Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams told Express UK he expects the couple to pick and choose those voices they feel will best promote their agenda in this space.
