Meghan Markle [1] now has her own official page on the royal website [2]! Following the royal wedding [3], the 36-year-old was given the royal title of Duchess of Sussex [4], a role which comes with a whole host of new royal responsibilities.

The duchess's new page gives readers background on her life, highlights the activist and feminist work she has previously engaged in, and how she aims to further her work through her new royal duties. It talks about her volunteering from age 11, and how she campaigned for a sexist TV advert to be altered [5]. The website says "these early experiences helped to shape her lifelong commitment to causes such as social justice and women's empowerment." It highlights the work Meghan has done for One Young World, UN Women, and World Vision.

Meghan is among many other members of the royal family [6] highlighting the charitable work they've accomplished leading up to and including their royal duties.
