Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, tired of the British press and the atmosphere at the court, shared a surprising decision with the world in 2020. They officially resigned from royal duties and moved across the ocean with their then less-than-one-year-old son, Archie, wanting to escape the media.
Shortly after moving, the couple began to pursue their professional plans, aiming to become financially independent. At that time, they founded the Archewell Foundation, whose main mission is to support equality, mental health, and ecology projects. Now, they have traveled to Colombia to engage in further initiatives related to their activities.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry flew to Colombia
In 2022, Netflix released a documentary series about the life of the former royal couple. Among its viewers was the Vice President of Colombia, Francia Márquez, who was moved by Meghan Markle's story. For this reason, she invited her for a several-day cultural and social visit, during which they will discuss topics including cyberbullying and discrimination. Additionally, Prince Harry is set to meet with members of Team Colombia, who will participate in next year's Invictus Games.
As they announced via social media, the Sussexes have already checked in to Colombia. The couple was photographed in Bogotá, where Francia Márquez herself welcomed them. Meghan Markle chose a navy set with a vest, low shoes, and an ivory-colored bag for the occasion. Meanwhile, Prince Harry wore a black suit and a light blue shirt.
