Duchess of Sussex calls for unity to protect children from online harm after NYC ceremony
Meghan Markle released a powerful new video message following King Charles’ major announcement regarding the Royal Family’s upcoming reunion for the 80th anniversary of VE Day.
Taking to Instagram, the Duchess of Sussex shared an emotional clip from the Lost Screen Memorial ceremony in New York City — a moving art installation dedicated to honouring children lost to online harms.
In the heartfelt post, Meghan wrote: “An important and emotional evening last night in NY as we unveiled #NoChildLostToSocialMedia with parents and families who have lost their children to online harms."
She continued, "My husband and I have worked with many of these families for the last several years, and through The Archewell Foundation and our program The Parents’ Network, we support them in their grief and stand with them in their call for action."
Ending her message with a plea for kindness and positivity, Meghan urged communities to become a guiding example for the next generation: "Let’s tell our children that they are enough, and that this life is worth living. And let’s ensure that no child is lost to social media. With your support, we can effect change."
The Duchess’s emotional appeal came just after Buckingham Palace confirmed King Charles, Queen Camilla, Prince William, and Princess Kate will reunite alongside other senior royals for the historic VE Day celebrations — marking a significant moment of unity for the Royal Family.
