AceShowbiz - Now that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have officially tied the knot in the royal wedding held on May 19, people are wondering where the newlyweds will be going for their honeymoon. A slew of places have been reported to be the couple's destination, including Africa and Hawaii.
Even months prior to the royal wedding, people speculated that the 33-year-old British prince and his 36-year-old wife will fly to Namibia, Africa to enjoy their honeymoon. According to Omid Scobie, Africa is "the one side of the world where Harry says he feels like he can be himself."
"He has laid roots there and has a huge amount of love and respect for the African continent," Scobie told Elle. "The couple have been keen to explore other countries in Africa, and I'm certain we will see them do that on this honeymoon."
However, another report suggested that Harry and Meghan would spend their honeymoon in Botswana and Hawaii instead. It was also said that they're planning to be having a "mini-moon" in Ireland.
Scobie added that the couple wanted to keep their honeymoon location under wraps. The couple allegedly keeps changing the locations once media catches wind of a royal honeymoon destination.
"The honeymoon destination has changed a few times since they started planning," Scobie said. "If a location leaks prior to travel, it compromises their safety on the trip, and they'll be advised by their protection team to change plans."
Scobie added, "William and Kate's protection officers ended up doing recon on two destinations before they settled on the Seychelles for their 2011 honeymoon. I heard that just over a month before the wedding, Harry and Meghan hadn't even booked a destination, so these plans have come together rather quickly!"
"Kensington Palace have said that the honeymoon is very much a private trip and they won't be releasing details to the media. The couple shared so much during the wedding and now is the time for them to enjoy some privacy. They deserve it," he concluded.
