The Royal Visit: Exploring the Duke and Duchess’s Ties to Nigeria
In a recent revelation, the duchess shared on a podcast that a genealogy assessment showed she has a 43% Nigerian heritage. This discovery has sparked her interest, especially after receiving enthusiastic responses from Nigerian women. Prince Harry has also expressed his fondness for Nigeria repeatedly.
Their upcoming trip to Nigeria is a testament to their profound affinity with Africa, adding a personal touch to their journey. During their stay, they engaged with the Nigerian representatives at the Invictus Games, where the duchess received the endearing title Amira Ngozi Lolo, translating to ‘royal wife.’
On May 8, the younger son of the current sovereign made a trip to London to mark the decade milestone of the Invictus Games, an initiative he established to celebrate wounded and disabled veterans.
Although King Charles was nearby at Buckingham Palace, a meeting between the two was not possible due to their respective busy schedules.
