Meghan Markle and Prince Harry made a donation to charities working in Nigeria after the Duchess announced she is 43 per cent Nigerian on her latest Archetypes podcast, it has been revealed.
The Duchess of Sussex, 41, released her sixth episode of her audio series yesterday and explained she discovered she is 43 per cent Nigerian after doing a genealogy test ‘a couple years ago’.
And in a press release which accompanied the episode, a Spotify representative confirmed that the couple’s Archewell Foundation made donations to Save the Children and Unicef.
The spokesperson said the unspecified donations to the charities would ‘help provide relief following devastating floods wreaking havoc in Nigeria.’
Floods in the country, blamed by the government on heavy rain and a water release from a dam in neighbouring Cameroon, have killed more than 600 people, displaced around 1.4 million and damaged or destroyed 440,000 hectares of farmland across Nigeria.
