Meghan Markle Has Glam Moment in Strapless Dress at Reception with Prince Harry in Nigeria
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are kicking off the second day of their trip to Nigeria with an engagement related to the Invictus Games.
On Saturday, May 11, Meghan — who stepped out in a black and white cutout silk midi dress by Johanna Ortiz — and Harry attended a training session for Nigeria: Unconquered, a national charity working in collaboration with the Invictus Games Foundation. Their visit focused on sports recovery, and they observed a basketball match and training session with athletes.
Upon arriving at the Defense Headquarters Officers’ Mess in Abuja, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex was promptly escorted to watch a sitting volleyball game. As they settled into their seats in the arena, they were presented with scarves in Nigeria’s green and white colors. After about 15 minutes, Harry was invited to join in. His colleagues shouted, “Team Harry!” Animated Meghan clapped for every point, regardless of which team scored, but she had a big smile and cheered when Harry scored his first point.
Once Harry took his place on the court, a young girl named Tiwa Akanbi, 9, was ushered forward to meet the Duchess of Sussex.
