Meghan Markle beamed as she arrived at a heavily-guarded theatre supported by Prince Harry , where she will deliver a speech on female empowerment on the final day of their tour in Colombia . The Duchess of Sussex looked glamorous as she greeted those inside the Municipal Theatre in the city of Cali and she shook hands with those in the audience as a proud Harry looked on. Following all of their previous engagements in Colombia, security was tight around the theatre with heavily armed soldiers, explosive officers and police officers, including one with a dog, who were seen standing guard.
Later, Harry and Meghan are expected to visit the Petronio Alvarez Festival, which is a celebration of Afro-Colombian music. It will be the final event of their four-day trip to the South American nation. It comes after the Sussexes visited the port city of Cartagena yesterday, where they dropped by on a local drum school that preserves the art-form of traditional African drumming.
There, Harry and Meghan were gifted a small handcrafted wooden boat from a student, an ode to the beautiful coastal town and its beaches, before joining in with a drum lesson led by the students, followed by a performance from some of the locals which brought both the vice president and Meghan to their feet. Afterwards, they were given a warm welcome in "a little corner of Africa" that has become a symbol of anti-colonial resistance. The couple visited the historic north Colombian village of San Basilio de Palenqu.
