However, Meghan Markle’s fashion choice during the trip has sparked a social media storm.
Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, alongside his wife Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, recently embarked on a three-day visit to Nigeria from May 10 to 12, 2024.
The purpose of their trip was to promote the Invictus Games and support wounded servicemen in the country. During their visit, the couple engaged in various activities aimed at uplifting the spirits of wounded veterans and garnering global support for their cause.
However, Meghan Markle’s fashion choice during the trip has sparked a social media storm. The Duchess of Sussex wore a striking backless peach maxi dress by Heidi Merrick, named “Windsor“, catching the attention of the royal watchers. This decision has led to speculation about whether it was a coincidence or a deliberate message.
Some believe Meghan is intentionally forging ties to the Windsor name, despite stepping back from royal duties in 2020. Previously, there were reports of Meghan’s desire to live in Windsor Castle, a wish that the Queen reportedly declined.
The visit to Nigeria holds personal significance for Meghan, as she recently discovered through a genealogy test that she is 43% Nigerian. During a panel at an event hosted by the World Trade Organization, Meghan called Nigeria “my country” and spoke about the importance of positive representation.
Regardless, some royal followers believe Meghan’s actions are deliberate attempts to gain attention and approval.
The purpose of Harry and Meghan’s three-day trip was to boost their popularity as estranged members of the royal family and gain positive PR. The visit, which included a stop at a military rehab hospital where Harry earned comparisons to his mother, Diana, was not an official royal your.
As the couple continues to navigate their new roles outside the royal circle, their actions and choices remain under intense scrutiny, with some seeing their Nigeria visit as a strategic move to garner attention and support.
