IfMeghan MarkleandPrince Harryare looking for some gorgeous pieces for theirnew home, they’ve come to the right place!
During the final day of theirroyal tour in Moroccoon Monday, the royal couple visited the Andalusian Gardens to hear about youth empowerment in the country from a number of young social entrepreneurs at a market. They saw traditional Moroccan arts and crafts on display in the walled public garden amid exotic plants, flowers and fruit trees.
Harry squatted down to examine one craftsman’s pieces made of cedar wood, chatting with the seller as Meghan listened. The craftsman then gifted Meghan a necklace, placing it over her head to wear as she visited other stalls. Attentive Harry then pulled up his wife’s ponytail so that it fell back over it.

Silver craftsman Sakhi Driss had a photo of Harry’s father,Prince Charles, on display from when the Queen’s son visited his store in Fez. Driss said of Harry, “He asked when the visit was and where was the picture taken.”
At one point, Harry jokingly shielded his eyes as the sun reflected off one of the silver pieces — and Meghan learned that it takes about six days to make one tray.

At one of the first stops in the fabulous walled gardens high above the coast with the Mediterranean sea, they were handed two embroidered foot cushions — which will perhaps come in useful in their new home, Frogmore Cottage in Windsor Castle.
“They were interested. They asked many questions. It was a great pleasure to see them,” Ismail Boudrous from the social enterprise says.

Both lost their outerwear for the cooking demonstration, where Meghan exchanged cookbooks with Chef Moha Fedal,presenting him with a copy ofTogether: Our Community Cookbook—the collection of recipes she created with members of a community kitchen helping survivors of theGrenfell Tower tragedy in London— complete with a handwritten message.
The couple arrived in Morocco on Saturday — and decided to stay on privately for an extra night at the end of the visit. They’ll return to London on Tuesday, instead of Monday afternoon.
