Prince Harry and Meghan have launched their own website with the announcement that they are stepping down as senior royals.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex visit Tembisa during their royal tour of Africa.
They plan to bypass the tabloid press which are getting cut out of access as the couple will break with using the traditional royal press pool used by Buckingham Palace and known as the"royal rota" and which guaranteed the tabloid media access to them.
They say that they believe in"a free, strong and open media industry, which upholds accuracy and fosters inclusivity, diversity and tolerance" but that they are going to continue to use social media, and use it even more, since they believe that"their updated media approach will enable them to share more, with you, directly".
"The current structure makes it challenging for The Duke and Duchess of Sussex to personally share moments in their lives directly with members of the public , without first going through the filter of the royal rota."
