Meghan and Harry Just Donated a Huge Amount of Wedding Profits to Charity
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may not live in England full-time anymore, but they've always said that they will uphold their commitment to charitable endeavors even as non-royals. Now, they've proven just that with a new donation. As Town & Country reported, the couple has donated roughly £90,000, or about $112,000 in U.S. dollars, to the charity Feeding Britain. According to the organization's website, it is "running an emergency food program to protect children and their families from hunger" amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Feeding Britain is a crucial resource for low-income families to supplement meals while schools are closed.
Per Town & Country, the donation amount came from the money that Meghan and Harry profited from the BBC's broadcast of their royal wedding back in May 2018. Suffice to say that their current life looks very different than it did back then, but we'll still be cheering them on every step of the way.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
