The Duke of Sussex appears to have taken a solo trip to Lesotho and South Africa for his Sentebale charity – and was captured mingling with South African royals
Prince Harry has been spotted in South Africa for the first time since making a visit for his Sentebale charity – as he posed for a photo with his arm wrapped around the Princess of Lethoso, Senate Seeiso.
The Duke of Sussex, who recently turned 40, appears to have taken a solo trip to Lesotho and South Africa, with no mention so far of wife Meghan Markle, or their two children Archie and Lilibet, joining him. Dressed in a white shirt, dark blazer and slim-fitting jeans, Harry smiled as he stood with Lesotho Senate Seeiso in a snap she posted to her Instagram page. The 22-year-old wrote: “Had a pleasure of hosting a lunch today”, as she shared the image in a reel.
During his visit, Harry is expected to gather with world business leaders and philanthropists in the region to work towards fostering prosperity in Southern African communities, specifically for young people.

He co-founded his Sentebale charity with Prince Seeiso of Lesotho back in 2006, and is now working to bring together leaders from Google’s charitable arm and several other companies and organisations for a series of meetings in Lesotho and Johannesburg, South Africa.
Speaking about the philanthropy work he plans to undertake in the region, Harry said of the charity: “Through its work in Lesotho and Botswana, Sentebale has developed a profound understanding of local youth – their passions, their concerns, and their extraordinary creativity. These young adults are eager and capable of driving meaningful change, yet significant barriers still stand in their way.
“As we head towards our 20th anniversary, our ambition has grown, giving us the confidence to bring our skills and experience in designing solutions with young people, and to leveraging our convening power to engage with leading regional players and global funders so we can add Sentebale’s voice to addressing the challenges faced by the next generation in Southern Africa.”
On Monday, Harry was at a central London hotel as he attended the WellChild Awards ceremony to honour some of the country’s bravest children, while supporting a charity he has been a patron of for 16 years. He was just two miles from Buckingham Palace, but did not appear to visit King Charles, and was less than an hours drive from his older brother William’s home.
