Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are due to visit Colombia in their second pseudo-royal tour, after an earlier trip to Nigeria was hailed as a success.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been invited by the Vice President of Colombia to visit the capital, Bogotá, and Pacific regions Cartagena and Cali in November.
With multiple destinations, the trip will likely resemble the kind of overseas tour they embarked on as working royals.
A trip to Nigeria in May had similar choreography and proved a PR success for the couple.
A statement by Francia Márquez released on Thursday read: "As the Vice President of Colombia and Minister of Equality and Equity, I am pleased to announce that Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, have kindly accepted my invitation to visit our beautiful country.
"During their trip, The Duke and Duchess will join me in visiting Bogotá, as well as the Caribbean and Pacific regions of Cartagena and Cali.
"In these vibrant locations, they will have the exceptional opportunity to engage with leaders, youth, and women who embody the aspirations and voices of Colombians committed to progress. In addition to these meaningful interactions, The Duke and Duchess will experience the rich heritage of Colombia.
"Their visit comes at a particularly significant time, as it precedes the first Global Ministerial Conference on Ending Violence Against Children, to be held in Colombia this November.
"The Archewell Foundation, founded by The Duke and Duchess, is renowned for its global leadership in fostering a safer online environment.
"The forthcoming conference will unveil a comprehensive framework for creating safer physical and digital spaces, tackling issues such as cyberbullying, online exploitation, and the mental health impacts of these threats.
"It will offer actionable solutions and commitments for countries around the world. During their visit, The Duke and Duchess, as well as The Archewell Foundation, will engage in several activities related to this important topic.
"We are confident that their visit will further illuminate Colombia's role as a beacon of culture and innovation."
