Meghan Markle allegedly had a one-word demand for her husband, Prince Harry, during one of their most high-profile appearances last year. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex spent four days in Colombia, in what's been dubbed a "quasi royal tour" of the South American country.

Harry and Meghan were not representing the Crown, but their visit included many elements of a normal royal tour. The couple spent their first day in the capital, Bogota, meeting Vice President Francia Márquez and her husband, Rafael Yerney Pinillo.

But as they were departing their first engagement hand in hand, a lip-reading expert claimed there was a snappy exchange between the two.

Lip reader Nicola Hickling told the Mirror that Meghan had one demand from her husband. She simply told him, "Hand," before the Duke replied, "Here you go."

The Sussexes' visit to Colombia was criticised by some critics, while others dubbed it "successful".

The Sussex couple were invited to Colombia by Vice President Francia Márquez and were provided with a full security detail during their visit.

Harry and Meghan attended several engagements focusing on mental health among youngsters and the military community, cyberbullying, female empowerment, and the cultural richness of Colombia.
