The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have announced they will tour southern Africa in the autumn.
Sharing the news on Instagram, Prince Harry and Meghan said it
would be their "first official tour as a family".
The couple's son Archie, who was born in May, will be around
five months old when they begin their trip.
As well as travelling to South Africa, the duke will carry out
solo visits to Malawi, Angola and Botswana, where his HIV support charity is
based.
The post
on the royal pair's Instagram feed said they were looking forward to raising
awareness of the work local communities are doing "across the Commonwealth
and beyond".
In 2006, Prince Harry jointly founded Sentebale, a charity
helping to support children and young people affected by HIV in Lesotho and
Botswana.
Last week the prince gave his backing to a landmine clearing
initiative to help rid Angola of 153 minefields - a cause previously championed
by his mother Diana, Princess of Wales.
