This is another major disappointment for the couple, whose mission of creating the charitable nonprofit with volunteering services and a “wide-ranging website” got off to a rocky start this spring.

If you recall, back in April, Meghan and Harry revealed that they were planning to launch a new foundation since departing from the royal family, named after their young son Archie, 1, and the Greek work for “source of action.”

Although the couple had been hoping to wait a bit longer for the novel coronavirus outbreak to pass to announce the news of launch, British papers beat them to it.

Once the cat was out of the bag, people of the U.K. were none-too-pleased with the high-profile pair seemingly stealing the spotlight from the virus. More than 40,000 British lives have been lost to COVID-19, and at the time their own prime minister Boris Johnson was admitted to the ICU.

Needless to say, the launch did not go as planned--but it seems that their trouble did not stop there.

According to The Sun, Meghan and Harry submitted their application to the United States Patent and Trademark Office on March 3, but have been since sent an "Irregularity Notice," saying the application will become "abandoned" if their attorney doesn't make several changes, including being "too vague."

The notice also states that, "The wording 'providing a website featuring content relating to philanthropy, monetary giving, volunteer and career opportunities' in International Class 35 is also indefinite and over broad, and must be clarified to specify the nature of the content provided." The Sun notes that submissions for trademark are regularly denied on the first try, so we're hopeful that Meghan and Harry can get this up and running soon!
