Prince Harry and Meghan Markle recently embarked on a four-day tour of Colombia.

Meghan Markle’s fans have taken to social media after noticing Prince Harry briefly resting his arm on the back of a translator’s chair who was sat next to him.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were at Zapata National Centre for the Arts in Bogotá as they watched a tribal dance show.

Harry was then seen speaking to a translator. He then rested his arm on the back of her chair.

Posting on X, one commenter said: “Sitting very close to the translator & with his arm around her chair!!!!! Oh dear, Harry will be in for it when he gets home!!!!!”

One fan of Meghan said: “I’m sure Harry got the wrath of Meghan about this!”

Another said: “This is the strangest photo I have ever seen of these two.”

A third added: “The translator is not doing anything wrong and appears to be acting with professionalism and decorum.”

Another person wrote: “Their interpreter’s demeanour seemed very professional and friendly.”

Meghan and Harry traveled to the South American country to highlight issues surrounding bullying and misinformation online.

Harry said in a speech: “What happens online within a matter of minutes transfers to the streets. People are acting on information that isn’t true.

“It comes down to all of us to be able to spot the true from the fake. In an ideal world, those with positions of influence would take more responsibility. We are no longer debating facts.

“For as long as people are allowed to spread lies, abuse, harass, then social cohesion as we know it has completely broken down.”

Harry and Meghan’s trip was not without controversy. The tour came under fire from locals in Colombia who claimed the Sussexes were helping the beleaguered government in Bogota to distract from corruption scandals and other issues.

A Colombian lawyer told the Mail on Sunday: “I’m sure Meghan and Harry mean well, but everyone here is talking about how obviously they are being manipulated.

“Of course, their star-power will be used to bring attention to poor people and certain areas of culture in Colombia… but the reality is the Colombian government has been drowning in scandal since it came in two years ago.

“They need something to appease people at home and make them look good abroad.”
