Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Archewell Foundation was brutally slammed by the California Registry of Charities and Fundraisers as "delinquent", but the Duke and Dutchess of Sussex have managed to find solstice in the comfort of the State's Governor, Gavin Newson, who attributed it to a technical issue.
A letter from California's Attorney-General dated May 3 levied the criticisms against the royal couple's charity as they continue to lurch from one drama to the next.
Their Archewell Foundation was said to have failed to submit required annual reports and renewal fees to the Registry, according to PEOPLE. It's something they deny, but fortunately Prince Harry and Markle have one key friend in all of this, California's Governor, who took to the media to back the wealthy pair.
"I'm here at a behavioral health site, a mental health site," Newsom told PEOPLE. "Archewell Foundation, run by Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, do extraordinary work, particularly [for] women and girls, but notably, around mental health.
"And I just want folks to know, not only are they in compliance, it was a technical paperwork issue that was wildly overhyped, and with respect, I hope people that ran those headlines run this headline, that it was a very typical, technical issue around paperwork that persists for so many others as well.
"And they're in full compliance and they're a celebrated organization that does great work in the state of California. So I wanted to clarify that, because that's important, and I just thought there was a little bit of a piling on that was deeply unfair."
