Cape Town – The countdown has officially begun for Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and baby Archie's tour to South Africa.
The British High Commissioner, Nigel Casey, confirmed there would be a royal tour in June before the Sussex Royal Instagram page shared the news as well.
Nigel joked while addressing the media, "I predict a hat and frock buying frenzy to rival SONA, which could restore economic growth all on its own."
On Sunday, the account posted their monthly social awareness – this time, with a focus on the African continent as a lead up to the tour – as well as a special message from Prince Harry, expressing his excitement for his family's latest adventure.
"In just a few weeks our family will be taking its first official tour to Africa, a region of the world that over the past two decades has been a second home to me. Our team has helped create a meaningful programme that we're so excited to share with you.
"On a personal note, I can't wait to introduce my wife and son to South Africa! We'll see all of you very soon."

From what we know so far, Harry, Meghan and baby Archie will all visit South Africa together, before the Duke visits Malawi, Angola and Botswana on his own.
According to the Sussex Royal account, there's just a little over 20 days until the tour officially kicks off.
And now we don't know who's more excited – Prince Harry, or us!
