Prince Harry and Meghan Markle just kicked up a storm in Nigeria that would make even the savviest tabloid writer blush!
Picture this: the Duke and Duchess of Sussex waltzing into a swanky reception in Nigeria like they own the place. Day two of their Nigerian adventure, and they’re already causing a royal ruckus.
As the national anthem chimed in with “God Save The King” (cue the dramatic music), Harry and Meghan rose like majestic phoenixes, standing at attention as if they were auditioning for a royal statue. Harry, bless his royal heart, stood there with eyes forward and arms stiff like he was practicing for a mannequin convention. Meanwhile, Meghan, our favorite American-turned-British duchess, mirrored his stiff upper lip with a posture that screamed, “I’m here for the anthems, darling!”
But wait, it gets better! The British anthem was followed by the Nigerian anthem, and the royal couple kept up their anthem-standing game. Talk about international respect, right?
Of course, the internet had a field day with this royal anthem spectacle. Social media went bonkers faster than you can say “royal tea time.” Journalist Simon Perry, who was lucky enough to tag along on the Sussexes’ escapade, shared a video of the royal duo’s anthem antics, sending the virtual world into a frenzy.
And let’s talk fashion! Meghan, the style icon herself, strutted her stuff in a St. Agni white strapless number, while Harry rocked a cream linen suit like he was born in it. The fashion gods must’ve been grinning ear to ear.
But hold onto your tiaras, because the night didn’t end there. Oh no, they were treated to a dance performance that would put even the most rhythmically challenged to shame. Drummers drummed, dancers danced, and Harry and Meghan? Well, they watched with all the enthusiasm of kids at a candy store.
But it wasn’t just a night of entertainment; they got a sneak peek at a future Invictus Centre, where wounded warriors would find solace. Talk about turning a royal jaunt into a heartfelt affair!
And then there’s Abike Dabiri Erew, the Nigerian voice of reason in this royal madness, declaring Meghan an honorary Nigerian. Because, why not? “Princess Meghan is a Nigerian!” she exclaimed, as if she’d just uncovered the world’s best-kept secret. And she didn’t stop there; she showered Harry with compliments too, calling him the “best man” for Meghan. Aw, ain’t that sweet?
Harry and Meghan’s Nigerian escapade: a whirlwind of anthems, fashion, and unexpected honorary titles. Who knows where their royal adventures will take them next? Nigeria today, Mars tomorrow!
