Kensington Palace announced a cluster of engagements on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s Twitter page this afternoon.
The first announcement was that the newlyweds would attend a gala performance at the Victoria Palace on August 29, followed 60 minutes later by another tweet announcing they would also attend the annual Well Child Award at The Royal Lancaster Hotel on September 4.
And as if that was not enough to keep busy bee Meghan occupied, just 40 minutes later the palace announced they would also attend another gala for Help for Heroes on September 6 at Central Hall to mark the centenary of the end of WW1.
The quick-fire announcements triggered an excited reaction from social media users.
One Twitter user said: “This couple is awesome. Keep rising above the petty and silly gossip!”
Another gushed: “OMG another engagement! Please keep them coming!”
The list of events come days after yet another damaging interview Thomas Markle, 74, gave where he compared the royal family to a “cult”.
He told The Sun: “They are either like Scientologists or the Stepford family.
“If they hear anybody say anything they just lock the doors. They need to speak up!
“They are cult-like — like Scientology — because they are secretive.
“They close the door, pull the shades down and put their fingers in their ears so they don’t have to hear.”
He added: “Maybe they have a secret handshake too! You cannot ask a question of them — as they won’t answer.”
Mr Markle, who resides in Mexico, has made several desperate attempts to reconnect with his daughter, 37, after it emerged he had posed for staged pictures in exchange for cash.
The pictures showed the former lighting director being fitted for a suit for the May 19 wedding and reading up on the royal family.
The scandal came out just days before the wedding and Mr Markle pulled out of walking Meghan down the aisle.
Prince Charles stepped in at the last minute while Mr Markle said he had suffered a heart attack.
In Meghan’s birthday card sent to her two weeks ago, Mr Markle wrote “I didn’t fake the heart attack.”
