Her dedication to the Royal Family earned formal recognition in 2019 when she received the Royal Victorian Order.

Prince William personally bestowed this prestigious honour upon Ms Archer during an investiture ceremony held at Buckingham Palace.

When Ms Archer tendered her resignation in 2025, the Wales household reportedly extended their warmest wishes for her future endeavours.
