Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Visit Nigeria ! #MeghanMarkle #PrinceHarry #meghan #Mediatakeout
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have touched down in Nigeria for their first international tour together since stepping down as working royals. The duke and duchess were personally invited to the West African nation by the chief of defense staff General Christopher Musa, the country’s top-ranking military official, as part of the celebrations of the Invictus Games anniversary.
The prince and former Suits star were greeted during a welcome ceremony as they made their first stop at Lightway Academy in the capital city of Abuja where they met with schoolchildren.
Photos of the pair’s visit had the internet buzzing with fans in awe over Meghan’s look.

While Harry sported a casual linen outfit, the Duchess of Sussex donned a peach-colored maxi dress by Heidi Merrick.
Some social media users pointed out that coincidentally, the backless halter style name of that dress is the “Windsor.”
Meghan accessorized her outfit with a gold chain necklace, gold bangles, and vintage gold Lanvin button earrings. She pulled her hair back in a low ponytail and wore minimal makeup.
The duchess and her husband were presented with long wooden bead necklaces that they both wore during their visit as well.
People noted that Meghan, who recently learned about her Nigerian heritage, gave a speech at the academy telling the youngsters: “Every single one of you has a story. We all have our story. And there’s no shame in any single one of your stories. Even on the hardest days or darkest days, everything is a pillar of your strength by each of you being there … as I look around this room, I see myself in all of you.
“It is a complete honor to have our first visit to Nigeria be here with all of you. We believe in you. We believe in your futures. We believe in your ability to continue to tell your stories and to just be honest with each other.”
It was also hard not to notice that Prince Harry’s wife was absolutely beaming when she spoke to the students. And as many of her fans said, she looked as happy as ever.
