  • Meghan was given a traditional henna tattoo during the visit.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's three-day trip to Morocco has already been incredibly busy.

Stepping out at the Education For All boarding house in Asni Town on Sunday morning, Meghan and Harry were greeted with a welcome ceremony. Education For All is a Moroccan organization which builds boarding houses for girls between the ages of 12 and 18, to give them access to a secondary education in rural communities.

As part of the welcome, Meghan took part in a traditional henna ceremony, receiving a henna tattoo from one of the boarding house students:
