Breaking News:Moment Meghan Markle and Prince Harry discuss Prince Archie’s birthday as they sit with school children in Nigeria

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s visit to Nigeria marks their first official international tour since their royal exit.

Though they’ve left their royal duties behind, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made an official visit to Nigeria on Friday, reminiscent of their former royal tours. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were all smiles as they visited the Lightway Academy in Abuja while on a visit to Nigeria. Not only is it their first time in the country, but the trip also marks the couple’s first official international tour since they stepped down from their roles as senior royals in early 2020.

On Friday, Harry was seen wearing an off-white linen button-down shirt and pants while Meghan donned a peach-colored Heidi Merrick maxi dress with her hair down in a loose ponytail. The couple were gifted large brown wooden beaded necklaces, which they wore throughout the visit. They snapped selfies with school children, watched local performers and were greeted with a flower-covered banner that read, “We Are Honored to Have You!”

Harry and Meghan’s Archewell Foundation previously donated school supplies and menstrual products to the women of Nigeria through a partnership with the GEANCO Foundation. In addition to meeting with the school’s staff and students, Harry and Meghan also delivered their own speeches about mental health.

“We are honored to have our first visit to Nigeria be here with all of you. We believe in you, we believe in your teachers and we believe in your ability to continue to tell your stories and to just be honest with each other,” Meghan told the crowd (per People). “There is no need to suffer in silence.”

After Harry’s speech, Meghan couldn’t help but gush over her husband, saying, “You see why I’m married to him? It’s so inspiring because he speaks the truth.” The trip comes after Harry visited the United Kingdom to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. Meghan did not join her husband for that part of the trip, though she did briefly touch down in the country as a part of her layover to Nigeria, meeting Prince Harry in the airport’s Windsor Suite, per royal reporters.
