Last night, we chatted about news Prince Harry and Meghan had travelled to Nice to celebrate the New Year. The Daily Mail exclusively revealed they took a helicopter to Monaco and partied the night away in the glamorous principality.
More from the article:
'Prince Harry and his fiancée Meghan Markle flew out of the billionaire tax haven of Monaco on a helicopter today after celebrating New Year ‘partying like tycoons’. A source on the French Riviera told MailOnline that the couple arrived on December 31st and met up with friends.
'There was speculation that the group may have included Prince Albert, and his wife, Princess Charlene, who are the most senior royals in the millionaires' playground in the south of France. Last year, glamorous Princess Charlene joined Prince Harry at Twickenham to watch a rugby match between England and south Africa.
'Monte Carlo is party central at this time of the year and the word is that the British Royals really enjoyed themselves,’ a source in the principality said. What’s certain is that they were partying like tycoons on New Year’s Day.'
The visit was a flying one - the couple were seen boarding a helicopter this morning and returned to the UK. Back in London, the couple will be firmly focusing on wedding planning and a series of engagements around the UK. Kensington Palace confirmed the first of these, will take place next on Tuesday, 9 January. Harry and Meghan will visit Reprezent 107.3FM in Brixton, to see their work supporting young people through creative training in radio and broadcasting, and to learn more about their model of using music, radio and media for social impact.
The Reprezent training programme was established in Peckham in 2008, in response to an alarming rise in knife crime, to help young people develop and socialise through radio. Since then, it has transformed into a hotbed of UK music talent. Training hundreds of young people every year in media and employment skills, over 4,000 young people have been through the Reprezent programme, with over 3,000 on the waiting list. It offers accredited training and support in topics ranging from audio and radio production and editing to communication skills and confidence building, work experience and volunteering. During their visit to the station, they will meet some of the presenters, content producers and staff, hear more about their training programmes, and meet some of the current and former volunteers who have benefitted from the training.
The visit will mark Meghan's second official day of duty following a successful day of engagements in Nottingham on 1 December to highlight World Aids Day.
I'm very excited to see Harry and Meghan's tour of the UK unfold in the coming months :)
