A CLOSE advisor to Harry and Meghan has quit as head of the couple’s charity – just days after the duo lost their eleventh publicist.
James Holt was Executive Director of The Duke and Duchess’ Archewell Philanthropies, serving as a key leader for their charitable endeavors.
He oversaw their global impact and communications for the Archewell Foundation, focusing on community upliftment and compassion.
Holt’s statement said: “Working with Prince Harry and Meghan has been one of the great privileges of my career.
“From my first project with Prince Harry eight years ago to improve mental health support for soldiers in the British military, to our recent work helping injured children in Gaza, he has consistently challenged me to think bigger about how we can make a difference.
“From the moment I met Meghan, I recognized a kindred spirit – someone who finds joy even in difficult moments and connects authentically with people regardless of circumstance.
“Above everything else, the work we’ve done together to support families affected by online harm will remain the most meaningful of my professional life.
“These families are extraordinary, and they inspire me every day.
“After five incredible years in Los Angeles, it’s time for my family to return to London.
“When I pass the baton to the team leading Archewell Philanthropies in the coming months, I’ll do so with immense pride and optimism for what lies ahead.
“I’ll miss my colleagues deeply, and I’m grateful to Harry and Meghan for everything they’ve done – for me, and for the countless people we’ve worked to support.”
