Prince Harry, 39, and Meghan Markle, 43, have embarked on a four-day tour of Colombia with the aim of educating young people on how to tackle cyberbullying and promoting mental health awareness.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were warmly received at the residence of Vice President Francia Marquez in Bogota’s heart on Thursday, with the couple making their entrance “hand in hand”.
As their whirlwind tour of the South American nation kicks off, a top Royal expert has commented that while it’s “easy to poke fun” at the pair, their efforts are “to be applauded.”
Jennie Bond, former BBC Royal correspondent, told OK!: “It’s becoming their signature look…arriving hand in hand, Harry looking pretty casual, Meghan looking sharp, stylish and glamorous. So far it has all the hallmarks of a quasi-royal tour… An official welcome from the VP (a slight downgrade on a presidential welcome), a cultural event to follow… And then the serious business of the discussions about online dangers for children. “
