Over the past ten days, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, have been on a momentous tour of Africa. This marked their first royal tour as a family since the birth of their son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor. As their time in Africa draws to a close, Markle took a moment to reflect on the deeply moving experience.
“Over the past ten days, our family has had emotional moments, poignant moments, spiritual moments, inspirational leaders in every walk of life, and we’ve been treated to incredible food, music, and dancing,” the Duchess shared.
Beyond the vibrant cultural experiences, the heart of the tour was about connecting with the people. Markle emphasized this, stating, “But above all, we’ve been able to meet the people that are the rocks behind the sort of work that really means so much to us.”
Their journey through Africa served as a powerful reminder that they are not alone in their beliefs and values. “It has been affirming to learn that we’re not alone in the things that we believe in and the principles that we hold so dear,” Markle reflected.
The Duchess’s words offer a glimpse into the profound impact the tour has had on her and her family. It’s clear that the experience has been both personally enriching and professionally fulfilling, allowing them to connect with communities and causes close to their hearts.
