Prince Harry and Meghan Markle just suffered a major setback when their charity application was denied for being “too broad” and unsigned.

The royal couple filed paperwork earlier this year to launch their charitable foundation named Archewell, named after their 1 year-old son Archie, but Fox News has obtained U.S. patenting and trademarking documents that show their application was rejected because of a series of errors they made.

The papers show that Harry and Meghan’s description of Archewell’s goods and services need to be changed in an astounding nine different ways because the current wording of the application is “indefinite and too broad.” On top of that, the couple forgot to sign the application, meaning that it is “not being properly verified,” according to documents.

This comes after The Sun reported that a trademark attorney who reviewed the documents found several issues with the papers. The lawyer then warned that these problems must be fixed within the next six months, or else it will be “abandoned.”

Harry and Meghan gleefully announced the name of their charity two months ago, explaining the meaning behind the name in a brief statement.

“We connected to this concept for the charitable organization we hoped to build one day, and it became the inspiration for our son’s name,” they said back in April. “To do something of meaning, to do something that matters. Archewell is a name that combines an ancient word for strength and action, and another that evokes the deep resources we each must draw upon.”

They added that their charity will aim to provide education and emotional support, among other services. However, they also made sure to add that they were in no rush to officially launch the charity because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Like you, our focus is on supporting efforts to tackle the global COVID-19 pandemic, but faced with this information coming to light, we felt compelled to share the story of how this came to be,” Harry and Meghan added in their statement.

Harry and Meghan shocked the world when they stepped down as senior members of the British royal family earlier this year. Archewell was meant to be their first main endeavor outside of the royal family, but clearly they have more work to do when it comes to the logistics behind their charity.
