Prince Harry allowed himself to relax into a zen-like state as he sat on stage with Meghan Markle during one of the opening events of his tour of Colombia.
As the Duke and Duchess enjoyed a colourful tribal dance at the Delia Zapata National Arts Centre in the country’s capital, Bogota, they displayed very different body language as spectators.
While Meghan, 43, remained demure and showed impressive posture during the performance, Prince Harry, 39, appeared slightly more slouched in his chair.
As he sat between the Duchess and the couple’s English-to-Spanish translator, Harry even felt relaxed enough to rest his arm on the back of the translator’s chair — and royal fans certainly had plenty of jokes to make about his gesture.
Prince Harry looked super relaxed as he watched a tribal dance in Bogota, Colombia, alongside his wife Meghan Markle on Thursday.
He appeared distracted as he looked back and appeared to gesture to someone off-screen as Meghan and the translator appeared engrossed in their performance of “Hummingbird Kiss.”
Finally, a woman approaches to speak to the Duke, who says something to her in a low voice before returning his attention to the performance.
After the clip was posted online, royal fans joked that the duke was risking a telling-off from his wife, who was sitting across from him.
Meanwhile, however, Meghan appeared unfazed by her husband’s casual gesture as she remained focused on the performance and chatted to Vice President Francia Marquez and pointed out some of the costumes, before shaking hands with the dancers at the end of the performance.
She looked chic as she changed into her second look of the tour: a colorful maxi dress by Johanna Ortiz, who is of Colombian descent.
The Duke of Sussex, 39, appeared distracted as he rested his arm on his translator’s chair during the performance at the Delia Zapata National Arts Centre.
The Duchess opted for the $2,150 Navajo Weaver metallic tweed maxi dress in burgundy and styled her hair in loose waves after her previous updo.
She wowed with her look, which featured a thigh-high slit and a chic cutout in the middle.
Although the dress itself looked brand new, Meghan wore a very similar look on her “quasi-royal” tour of Africa in May, wearing a £2,275 striped summer dress also by Johanna Ortiz.
She kept the same jewelry she had worn earlier in the day, but also appeared to add her $12,800 Cartier ‘juste un clou’ necklace, which she has worn many times before.
She made a sweet nod to the host country, as the dress is made in Colombia.
Meghan remained demure as they watched the performance and showed good posture as she appeared focused on the dance.
At one point during the performance, Prince Harry turned to someone off-screen to speak to them.
It’s also practical, has removable ruffle sleeves and is cool for the weather, as well as stylish by nature.
Meghan was beaming as she watched the performance, with the couple holding hands and showing plenty of affection.
Earlier, Meghan showed off her fashion prowess once again today as she stepped out in Colombia alongside Prince Harry to kick off their four-day tour of the South American nation.
She put on a stylish display in a £596 collared waistcoat from New York label Veronica Beard.
Looking effortlessly chic, the mother-of-two teamed her sleeveless, button-down number with matching navy, ankle-length trousers from the designer, priced at £349.33.
Cinched at the waist to flatter the duchess’s slender figure, the chic ensemble was paired with black Manolo Blahnik high heels and a $4,700 cream handbag from Italian company Loro Piana.
Harry and Meghan were welcomed in the capital, Bogota, by Colombia’s Vice President Francia Marquez and her husband Rafael Yerney Pinillo on Thursday.
They spent about half an hour at the vice president’s residence, where they exchanged welcome gifts and were offered tea, coffee and traditional pandebono (Colombian bread with cheese).
The Sussexes had a full security team throughout their visit along with Ms Marquez, who had invited the couple to travel to Colombia for what has been dubbed a DIY royal tour.
