Meghan Markle gave fans an insight into the lives of her two childen Archie and Lilibet as she discussed their favourite hobbies and birthday activities.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are on their second day of their visit to Nigeria to mark the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.
Harry and Meghan landed in Abuja on Friday morning as they kicked off their visit with a tour of Lightway Academy, a primary and secondary school in the city.
They were greeted by traditional dancers and met some of the primary schoolchildren.
During their tour the couple visited a kindergarten class where children aged up to five danced and sang – at one point, the visitors got to their feet and joined the class in singing Jump Up, Turn Around.

Meghan said that dancing was Lilibet’s favourite class, adding: “Maybe it’s all the jumping around.”
She added: “Our daughter, Lili, she’s much, much tinier than you guys. She’s about to turn three. And a few weeks ago she looked at me and she would just see the reflection in my eyes. And she [goes], ‘Mama, I see me in you’.
“Oh, now she was talking really literally. But I hung onto those words in a very different way,” she continued.
“And I thought, yes, I do see me in you, and you see me in you.”
Meghan then told the class: “As I look around this room, I see myself in all of you as well.”
Meghan and Harry were told by their young guests they are aged “five”, before the Prince cheerily confirmed: “Our son Archie is five… the same age as you”.
Their son Prince Archie turned five on May 6, however, not much is known about how the Sussexes marked their first child’s special day.
Adding to her husband’s words, Meghan said: “That’s right. He turned five last week!”
