Meghan Markle was bestowed a new ‘title’ after her recent trip to Nigeria joined by husband Prince Harry and this has left royal fans divided.

Meghan Markle’s statement after receiving a new “title” following her Nigeria tour with Prince Harry has left royal fans divided.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex visited the West African nation last month to champion mental health initiatives for soldiers and empower young people as they celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.

During her trip, Meghan was bestowed the traditional Yoruba name ‘Adetokunbo’ by Olowo of Owo, the Yoruba King of Owo.

Following this, the duchess released a letter in which she said she will “treasure” the title – which means ‘the crown returns from over the sea’ – adding she regards Nigeria as her “home”. Meghan said:

“Thank you for your warm welcome to Nigeria. I am deeply humbled by your blessing of the traditional Yoruba name, Adetokunbo. “I treasure the name and appreciate your trust in me to carry it with grace and dignity

“Our visit to Nigeria was important to many reasons, not least because it gave us an opportunity to explore and understand my heritage, which extends to our children.

“We look forward to coming back home one day soon.” However, Meghan’s words did not sit well with some royal fans, while others fully supported Prince Harry’s wife.

One user wrote on X: “It’s cool that Meghan’s embracing her Nigerian heritage. Representation matters, and it’s nice to see someone in the spotlight acknowledging.”

Another one disagreed: “Embracing? Nah. Just attempting to be relevant.” A third one added: “Good to know she loves Nigeria her made up homeland from whence she did not come.

If H is told to exit the USA they can return to Nigeria as promised, where she can bond with her letter writing family of prince & princess’s.(sic)”

Lastly, a fourth one commented: “Those who are confident & humble don’t have to advertise their titles. “Meghan Markle is pretentious & fake”.
