Meghan Markle has been given a new title unconnected to the Royal Family, as she and Prince Harry travelled to Nigeria for a three-day tour last month.

She was bestowed the traditional Yoruba name ‘Adetokunbo’ by the Olowo of Owo, the Yoruba King of Owo, and has since spoken about receiving the honour in a letter.

The Duchess of Sussex stated: “Thank you for your warm welcome to Nigeria. I am deeply humbled by your blessing of the traditional Yoruba name, Adetokunbo.

“I treasure the name and appreciate your trust in me to carry it with grace and dignity. Our trip to Nigeria was significant for many reasons, not least because it provided us an opportunity to explore and understand my heritage, which extends to our children.”

Some royal fans online praised Meghan for her attitude, with one writing: “It’s cool that Meghan’s embracing her Nigerian heritage. Representation matters, and it’s nice to see someone in the spotlight acknowledging.”

However, another was less convinced, commenting: “Embracing? Nah. Just attempting to be relevant.”

Others in the cast include Derry Girls’ Saoirse-Monica Jackson and Laura Aikman, last seen being jilted at the altar by Smithy in Gavin & Stacey – who we expect to see returning for series two. After the controversy of his character’s savage m::rder in episode 2, which fans deemed ‘m@d’, it has been confirmed that Sean Bean will make a reappearance in the second season. The news comes after some viewers took issue with his quick departure from the show, writing ‘Perhaps he can only manage 30 minutes of acting per programme. One of the biggest disappointments ever was him being written out of Game of Thrones so early.’ Speculation is already swirling that the new season will feature a flashback episode delving deeper into Ronnie’s past. We have all been blown away by the incredibly positive response to This City is Ours,’ said show creator Stephen Butchard. ‘I can’t thank the audience enough for their time and emotional investment.’ Beginning to contemplate the possibility of a future and a new family with his girlfriend, Diana, (Hannah Onslow, left), Michael reevaluates his life choices Beginning to contemplate the possibility of a future and a new family with his girlfriend, Diana, (Hannah Onslow, left), Michael reevaluates his life choices Featuring scenes such as the Catholic ‘wigwam’ cathedral, where a gangster prays for guidance before betraying his fellow crooks, to the ships on the Mersey, the series is set and shot in Liverpool, with an unwavering affection for the city Featuring scenes such as the Catholic ‘wigwam’ cathedral, where a gangster prays for guidance before betraying his fellow crooks, to the ships on the Mersey, the series is set and shot in Liverpool, with an unwavering affection for the city ‘This City is Ours was one of our team’s first commissions when I joined the BBC,’ added Lindsay Salt, director of BBC Drama. ‘I could not be happier with how Stephen, Saul and the Left Bank team have brought it to the screen so classily.’ The show has garnered a whopping 92% rating from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes, with one fan on X calling last night’s finale ‘Shakespearean level drama’. But Salt suggests that the drama is only just beginning: ‘I’m delightedthat we now get to build on this fantastic first run and show that things are only just getting started for this very special series’.
