Meghan Markle and Prince Harry recently opened up about their trip to Nigeria in a rare interview, shedding light on their perspective regarding their life away from the royal family. In a conversation with People, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex reflected on their three-day tour to Nigeria, where they had been personally invited by the Chief of Defense Staff. The couple emphasized the significance of such trips, as it allows them to focus on the causes that hold deep meaning for them. Harry shared, "These trips are about us being able to go out and go and focus on the things that mean so much to us. And being able to be on the ground, to us, is what it’s all about."
Meghan echoed his sentiments, highlighting the value of connecting with people during their visits. She expressed, "It's really meaningful. Just being able to connect to people...that's what makes it special." Harry, who is the author of the book "The Spare," also expressed his happiness and excitement about including Nigeria in the Invictus Games, an event he founded that celebrates wounded, injured, and sick service personnel and veterans through sports.
When asked about their overall well-being, Meghan couldn't contain her joy. She shared, "We’re just doing great. And happy to be watching our family grow up and evolve. Of course, I'm happy. We're really happy."
The couple's trip to Nigeria followed Harry's solo visit to the UK, where he attended a church service to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. During that visit, he reportedly received a chilly reception from the royal family.
In this interview, Meghan and Harry provided insights into their experiences during the Nigeria trip and reaffirmed their contentment with their current path outside the royal family.
