On Wednesday, November 8, 2023, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, made a rare appearance in San Diego to support the Navy SEAL Foundation’s newest facility for veterans. The Sussexes, along with Navy SEAL Foundation leaders, veterans and their families, officially opened the Warrior Fitness Program West Coast Facility with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The facility features state-of-the-art fitness and workout resources, rehabilitation technology and advanced biometric tracking systems. It aims to optimize human performance for warriors on the battlefield, transitioning to civilian life, or retired from service.



The Navy SEAL Foundation is a non-profit organization that provides critical support for the warriors, veterans, and families of Naval Special Warfare. The Foundation has a four-star rating from Charity Navigator and a perfect score from Guide Star, indicating its transparency and accountability. The Foundation offers various programs and services to address the needs of the Naval Special Warfare community, such as strength and resilience, health and wellness, education and development, and community and legacy.


The Warrior Fitness Program is one of the Foundation’s initiatives to enhance the physical and mental wellness of the Naval Special Warfare personnel and veterans. The program was launched in 2020 in Virginia Beach, Virginia, and has since expanded to San Diego, California. The program provides access to world-class fitness facilities, coaches, trainers, nutritionists, and therapists. The program also incorporates biometric data and feedback to monitor and improve the performance and recovery of the participants. The program is designed to help the warriors and veterans achieve their personal and professional goals, whether they are preparing for a mission, transitioning to a new career, or enjoying retirement.

The Sussexes have been vocal supporters of various U.S. veterans foundations since moving to California in 2020. Prince Harry, who served in the British Army for 10 years and completed two tours in Afghanistan, has a personal connection to the military and veteran community. He is the founder of the Invictus Games, an international sporting event for wounded, injured, and sick service members and veterans. He also attended the Department of Defense’s annual Warrior Games at Naval Station North Island in June 2023, where he met and cheered for the athletes. In addition, he made a surprise appearance at a Chula Vista movie theater in August 2023, where he spoke to the attendees and posed for selfies before a screening of his Netflix docuseries, “Heart of Invictus.”


The Duke and Duchess of Sussex expressed their gratitude and admiration for the Navy SEAL Foundation and the Naval Special Warfare community at the opening ceremony of the Warrior Fitness Program West Coast Facility. They also interacted with the 250 Naval Special Warfare personnel and their families who attended the event. The Sussexes said they were honored to be part of the celebration and to witness the impact of the program on the lives of the warriors and veterans. They also encouraged the public to learn more about the Navy SEAL Foundation and to support its mission of providing a nation of support for the Naval Special Warfare community.

Nevertheless, 2022 has been a special year for the Duchess, together with her husband, Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex . As you know, they signed a multi _ million dollars deal with both Netflix and Spotify, and needly to say, they have delivered in abundance beyond am sure, what these companies would imagine. Even the critics are still in disarray not because they don’t that our power couple deliver but because their relentless negative campaign against this couple so that they fail, always ends up being a waste. But let leave it for another day 😊.

In August, Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, surprised us with her talk show “Archetypes” from her Archewell production company with Prince Harry. In the show, which since its premiere took the No. 1 spot on Spotify’s charts in several countries, Meghan sat down with guests to dissect the semantics of labels historically applied to women such as “slut,” “ambitious” and “crazy.” despite some tiny Detractors with bigger microphone, “Archetypes” opened door to many discussion and talks. People shared experiences, learnt, and offered solutions. According to Spotify, Meghan ‘s Archetypes helped the company exemplifies the breakout quality Spotify is pursuing in the audio space.

So it did not come as a surprise when Fortune magazine named the Duchess of Sussex as their one of 2022 most influential woman, the message read as follows ;




Meghan Markle has become a symbol of resilience for many silenced women. Specifically speaking, for women of colour and, even more specifically, mixed-race and black women. Her experience within the royal family resonated with those who have had to navigate historically white, elitist institutions that are, at best, not built with them in mind and, at worst, outwardly hostile.

The royal family is an establishment largely maintained through silence and complicity. It’s this, in part, that makes Meghan’s choice to use her voice so powerful. This year she launched a podcast, Archetypes, where she interrogates the labels used to contain and inhibit women – fitting, given the projection and smears she has endured from the press. For the black community in particular, it was hard to watch her demonisation by the British media and public. But seeing her come into her own, and use her platform to speak about what matters to her, has sent a message even louder than she may have intended.

Visit and listen to this amazing podcast. I swear you won’t regret it. All the best as you listen and share with your family and friends as a Christmas gift! https://open.spotify.com/show/6UfyXZgVAUX1UzF8j5L72t?si=CeJQ9yihTpuBSD_Ovx0j4Qhttps://open.spotify.com/show/6UfyXZgVAUX1UzF8j5L72t?si=CeJQ9yihTpuBSD_Ovx0j4Q
