Meghan Markle and Prince Harry embarked on their highly anticipated 4-day tour of Colombia on Thursday, but what was supposed to be a diplomatic and cultural showcase quickly devolved into a masterclass in public tantrums. Upon arriving in Bogotá, the couple was greeted by Colombia's Vice President Francia Márquez and her husband, Rafael Yni Pino. The initial pleasantries included exchanging gifts, sipping tea and coffee, and indulging in traditional Colombian pandebono cheese bread. However, the real spectacle began when Meghan's simmering frustration with Harry took center stage.
As Meghan prepared to address the Vice President, Harry dared to interject—a move that clearly crossed Meghan's invisible line of royal decorum. The moment was caught on camera and pointed out by Meghan's sharp reaction. With a look that could curdle milk, Meghan shot Harry a glare that spoke volumes: *How dare you interrupt me?* Her response was a masterpiece of passive-aggressive fury, showcasing just how strained their dynamic can be under the spotlight.
The real comedy of the situation was Meghan's apparent belief that she was delivering some sort of world-changing wisdom. For someone who was once nothing more than an extra on a cable TV show, Meghan certainly seemed to expect all eyes to be on her, eagerly hanging on to her every word. The irony? The world was indeed watching, but not with admiration. Instead, viewers were met with a display of incredulity and disgust as Meghan's behavior exposed her glaring lack of self-awareness.
Harry's anticipated backlash was almost palpable. Meghan, often described as a viper for her sharp and calculated demeanor, clearly had no intention of letting this perceived slight go unnoticed. Her chin jutted out, her jaw clenched, and her body language screamed that she had no idea how to conduct herself in a group setting. Meghan's awkward fidgeting and constant attempts to gauge others' reactions to Harry's words were almost comical. It was as though she was waiting for public validation of her own irritation, desperately hoping that everyone shared her view that Harry had overstepped his bounds.
The moment Harry dared to speak, Meghan's hand went straight to her wedding ring—a classic sign of marital discontent. The non-verbal message was clear: Harry had violated some sacred code, and Meghan was not amused. Her mask of composure slipped quickly, revealing a control freak who expected everyone to fall in line with the scripted performance.
Judi James, a body language expert, noted that Harry's expression during the event was one of hesitance, reflecting the complicated emotions he likely felt about the trip. "Harry walks ahead in less of a performative mode," James observed. His polite smile seemed a little more tempered and complex, his eyes almost wary, which could be natural given the absence of the familiar royal protocols and safety nets.
Indeed, Harry's concerns about security weren't unfounded. The high-profile nature of the visit meant that heavy security was evident outside the Colegio Cultura Popular in Bogotá, where the couple received a tour. Armed soldiers, police officers, and security personnel formed a formidable perimeter around the school, underscoring the heightened risks associated with their public appearances.
Meghan's public outburst over Harry's minor infraction not only provided a glimpse into the couple's strained dynamic but also underscored Meghan's often misplaced sense of entitlement and self-importance. As day one of their Colombia tour concluded, it was clear that Meghan Markle's dramatic flair was as much a part of the visit as the diplomatic and cultural engagements themselves.
