Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may not be official working royal members. However, they still keep a touch of royalty about them, which may or may not sit well with outsiders. An integral part of monarchical life is royal tours. The Sussexes, who have long cut the cord with their royal duties, allegedly, have been trying to mirror the same with ‘faux royal tours’. Accusations of the same arose following the couple’s Nigerian trip earlier this year. 

Now, just three months after their Nigerian royal-like tour, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have set their sights on the next destination for their overseas tour.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry raised quite a few eyebrows during their May tour of Nigeria. And the kind of royal treatment the couple received in the African country even made Prince William “furious". Just three months after the successful tour, the Vice President of Colombia and Minister of Equality and Equity, Francia Márquez, announced in a statement that the Sussexes have accepted their invitation to visit Colombia for a four-day tour.

Even though no specifics of the schedule have been released for the tour, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry will visit Bogotá, Cartagena, and Cali with Márquez to have meaningful interactions with leaders, youth, and women. There will also be a conference later where the Sussexes, as part of their Archewell Foundation, will suggest a “framework for creating safer physical and digital spaces.” However, there is still one problem.

Prince Harry is still battling for police protection from the UK, which makes it even riskier for him to go on tour, especially in Colombia, at such a dangerous time.

The Colombian tour of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry comes amid the government issuing travel alerts for the crime-ridden, hostile country. While the UK government has advised “against all but essential travel to parts of Colombia,” the US government has asked people to “reconsider” their visit to the country. Even a British former royal protection officer told the Daily Mail that the Sussexes “have chosen to visit one, if not the most, dangerous country in the world.”

“It's just him digging his heels in with the UK authorities,” added the officer. He also claimed that it is because of Prince Harry’s knack for going to “dangerous places” that he is not getting security services from the government. Whether or not the Duke wins his legal battle with the UK over security, it is clear that the royal-esque tours are not going to be put on ice.
