Meghan Markle opens up about her children Archie and Lilibet while on Nigeria trip

It is an important trip. Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle arrived in Nigeria on Friday 10 May 2024 to raise awareness on the mental health of the many young people affected by conflict, but also to promote the Invictus Games. The Invictus Games are a competition founded by the Prince to help the rehabilitation of wounded soldiers and veterans. For this trip as a couple, Harry and Meghan Markle made part of the journey separately!

Meghan Markle joined her husband

Indeed, before flying to the capital of Abuja, Prince Harry made a brief visit to his home country to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. Meghan did not come with him. She did however meet him in a UK airport, so they could both fly to Abuja together.

During their visit, the Sussexes met students and teachers, after attending dance performances on their arrival. They then went into the classrooms to chat with the children. Prince Harry took the opportunity to ask them about their knowledge of mental health, reminding them not to be ashamed of taking good care of themselves, but also of others.

How are Archie and Lilibet doing?

During their stay, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will attend basketball and volleyball matches in Abuja and Lagos. The Prince is also expected to meet wounded servicemen in a military hospital. For her part, as revealed by American media outlet PageSix, the Duchess made a few revelations about her two children, Archie and Lilibet. She said that her 5-year-old son, who just celebrated his birthday on 6 May, was increasingly interested in construction.

And regarding her daughter, Meghan Markle shared that Lilibet made a very sweet statement. She told the children:

A few weeks ago, she looked at me and she could just see the reflection in my eyes. And she was [like], ‘Mama, I see me in you.'

The mother-of-two is not about to forget this intimate moment, especially as news of Archie and Lilibet is rare. According to People magazine, Meghan and Prince Harry's two children are inseparable. A source close to the couple told People:

They are so adorable together. Archie adores Lili.
