The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are said to be planning a “world tour” after completing a visit to Nigeria.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry travelled to the African country in mid-May to deepen their charity work on issues close to their heart, promote the Duke’s Invictus Games and allow the Duchess to connect to her Nigerian heritage.

Following their trip to Nigeria, speculation started to swirl over whether this was just the first of a series of overseas visits by the two California-based royals.

The Duke of Sussex himself seemingly suggested more journeys of this kind would be planned, as he told Nigerian outlet Peoples Daily: “There’s only so much one can do from home and over Zoom, so we look forward to travelling more because the work matters.”

While Meghan and Harry haven’t publicly shared their future plans, a source previously claimed that Ghana may be the next destination of the Sussexes.

They told the Mirror: “There is already a lot of talk and excitement in Ghana, everyone is so keen for Harry and Meghan to come and experience the great culture and warmth.”

They added: “Several top names have already visited Ghana in recent years from Ed Sheeran to Naomi Campbell and One Direction’s Liam Payne.”

Adding to the conversation about the Sussexes’ next move, TalkTV host Andre Walker claimed on his programme That Was The Woke That Was: “Harry and Meghan are planning a world tour this summer following on from the success of their trip to Nigeria.”

Discussing the reasons why Meghan and Harry, who are no longer working royals and haven’t represented the Crown since the spring of 2020, could be undertaking more overseas visits, political strategist Sam Armstrong told the host he believes the Duke and Duchess want to “prove a point”, which is that they can “do better” than the Prince and Princess of Wales.

He continued: “What they are trying to do is show that they still got it and they can do it.

“And, of course, you can never forget that they have to do something to keep Spotify and Netflix interested, which have written a check for hundreds of millions of dollars to produce something so far haven’t got much for it.”

Meghan and Harry struck multi-year deals with the two streaming platforms in late 2020 and released a series of programmes for them.

Their partnership with Spotify was ended in the summer of 2023, and the Duchess has since signed a new podcast deal with Lemonada Media.
