Prince Harry and Meghan Markle quietly set up a business BEFORE announcing they would quit Royal roles .. and have already used it to apply for trademarks

Daily Mail

The couple established the company MWX Trading Ltd last August, naming their lawyer, Gerrard Tyrrell, as its secretary and Natalie Campbell, who works for their charitable foundation Sussex Royal, as director.
They registered it at Companies House and have already used the business to apply for trademarks.
One was for the name Travalyst, an initiative which ‘seeks to change how travel impacts local communities’; the other for Travalyst’s logo.      .......
The news follows my disclosure last month, inset, that Harry and Meghan had revealed the scale of their ambitions in trademark applications they had made for Sussex Royal.
Documents published by the Intellectual Property Office disclosed that the couple had applied for trademarks on everything from ‘emotional support services’ to clothing, including bandanas and sportswear. Perhaps most intriguing of all was the application to trademark ‘magazines, newspapers, newsletters [and] periodicals’.
