One royal fan commented underneath: “So beautiful! Thank you for sharing this photo and the backstory. Meghan is taking salsa lessons wow. Can’t wait to see her in Cali.”
Another wrote: “Thank you for sharing this with us! Seeing Meghan finally dance salsa was amazing! It’s so uplifting to see the lessons pay off so beautifully!”
During her recent visit to Colombia with Prince Harry, Meghan showed off her salsa skills.
After participating in several activities through their nonprofit Archewell Foundation, including school visits and hosting an Invictus Games training session, they were able to immerse themselves in Colombian culture through dance.

Meghan paired a white T-shirt with a hand-embroidered midi skirt by Colombian designer Juan De Dios and leather sandals.
Harry was now wearing a blue linen shirt and beige khaki trousers.
In addition to salsa dancing, the Duchess also practiced her Spanish with Colombian students at Colegio La Giralda, a public school in Santa Fe, Bogotá.
She first learned the language during an internship at the U.S. Embassy in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and while studying abroad in Madrid, Spain.
