MEGHAN Markle and Prince Harry barely kept their hands off each other during their three-day official visit in Morocco after spending almost a week apart.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry share touching moment
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have delighted their royal fans with a series of public displays of affection while in Morocco. The royal couple has often broken the Queen’s untold rules regarding showing little to none tenderness to a beloved one in public. But in Morocco, Meghan and Harry didn’t just hold their hands as they usually do but also often hugged, touched and joked with one another.
The parents-to-be were spotted sharing a tender moment from the very instant they landed in the North African country.
Moments before stepping out of the car that took them from the airport to the residence of the British Ambassador to Morocco, Meghan put a hand on her husband’s leg.
On the following day, while visiting Education For All, a boarding house supporting female education in rural and isolated areas of the High Atlas Mountains in Morocco, Prince Harry made a cheeky joke about Meghan’s pregnancy.

As teachers congratulated the couple on the impending arrival of the royal baby, Harry told Meghan: "Wait, you're pregnant?"
Playing along, a smiling Meghan replied: ”Surprise!"
Prince Harry then asked, with a grin: "Is it mine?"
The joke exchange was welcomed by roaring laughter from those around the royal couple.
While at the school, Harry also made sure his heavily-pregnant wife was sitting comfortably by putting a hand on the small of her back in support.

Snaps of the pair basking under the sun of Morocco also show the Duchess of Sussex leaning against Harry, with the prince in turn lovingly looking at her.
And on the last day of their tour, Meghan voiced her admiration and affection for Prince Harry.
As the couple was tasting some of the country’s signature dishes cooked by chef Moha Fedel, a shy child paid a compliment in Arabic to the duke.
Translating for him, the chef said: “He finds you a very good person.”
Meghan, putting an affectionate hand on her husband's arm, said: “He is a good person.”
The duchess was also seen giggling at Harry’s passion for the food he was trying.
As the duke took a mouthful of Amlou, a blend of almond butter, argan oil and honey, she said: “Big bite!”
This royal tour is set to be one of the last public appearances of Meghan before her maternity leave.
The Duchess of Sussex’ firstborn is due next spring, and Meghan herself said during a visit to Birkenhead in Wirral, Merseyside she believes the baby will arrive towards the end of April or the very beginning of May.
The fact that the Duchess of Sussex doesn’t have any other flights planned in the foreseeable future also hints at the fact she is approaching her 37th week of pregnancy.
According to the NHS guidelines, “most airlines will not let you fly after week 37 of pregnancy”, as it increases the risk of getting blood clots.
