The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are to receive a top accolade at the NAACP Image Awards for heeding the call to social justice and joining the struggle for equity around the world.
Harry and Meghan were named as recipients of the President’s Award, which recognises special achievement and distinguished public service.
The couple, who stepped down as senior working royals in 2020, said in a joint statement it was a “true honour” and are expected to give a live acceptance speech in the early hours of Sunday, UK time, during the virtual awards ceremony.
