It ended with a very special event for Meghan Markle, a forum on women in which the former actress also spoke Suits he was encouraged to speak in Spanish. “Hello. Good afternoon. I would like to start in Spanish. Because we are in your country, my husband and I, and I can feel this embrace from Colombia and it is incredible.”he said, sparking applause from those present.

“So thank you, thank you very, very much. Because the culture, the history, everything, this trip was like a dream. And forgive me if my Spanish is not perfect because I learned it 20 years ago in Argentina.. But I’m trying because here I can feel this community and this feeling that is the best thing in the world now. So thank you, thank you very much,” she added, before finishing with a laugh: “And well, now, in English.” It should be remembered that a couple of decades ago, Meghan lived in Argentina as part of an internship at the United States Embassy.

She also had a very spontaneous moment when she got up from her seat and went to one of the sides of the stage to turn on one of the fans. During her speech in English, she made some references to her children, like this one about little Lilibet Diana: “At three years old, they have already found their voice, and we are very proud of that because this is how they themselves are going to create an environment very different from that of our childhood.”.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who recently gave another television interview, attended the forum Afro Women and Power, which was held at the Municipal Theater of Santiago de Caliwhere their last stop in Colombia took place. During these days, they also stopped in Bogotá and Cartagena. Vice President Francia Márquez accompanied them during this “almost royal” tour, as the English press calls it.

For this last event, Meghan opted for a sleeveless white shirt with a pronounced collar. For the bottom, she chose a colorful long fitted skirt with a floral print. She completed the look with fuchsia high heels.
