Prince Harry and Meghan Markle recently embarked on their second international tour of the year, arriving in Bogota, Colombia, to a warm reception.
Despite the welcome, their visit faced criticism from royal experts, who accused the couple of hypocrisy. This trip follows a previously controversial visit to Nigeria, drawing even more attention.
The visit to Colombia came at the invitation of Vice President Francia Márquez, inspired by the Sussexes’ 2022 Netflix series. Márquez, a prominent advocate for human rights and environmental issues, focused the trip on addressing cyberbullying.
The couple also launched their Parents’ Network initiative, supporting families dealing with challenges posed by social media. Prince Harry spoke passionately about the dangers of online platforms, stressing the importance of identifying truth amid misinformation.
During their first day, the couple visited a school to discuss social media’s impact and later attended a summit on digital safety, partly organized by their Archewell Foundation.
They also met with Vice President Márquez, exchanged gifts, and posed for photos. Observers noted Harry’s reserved body language, contrasting with Meghan’s poise and confidence.
Adding to the intrigue, a lip reader revealed a private exchange where Meghan reportedly issued Harry a subtle command during their public interactions, further showcasing their dynamic.
