Britain’s Prince Harry is keen to visit our shores.

In a Facebook Live feed from the University of East Anglia in Norwich, Sky News Royal Correspondent Rhiannon Mills said she had spoken to Prince Harry who had expressed his interest about visiting here.

Ms Mills was covering this year’s first public engagement of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, who toured the Fiji: Art and Life in the Pacific exhibition at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts.

“And I think it is probably because of the rugby,” Ms Mills told Josateki Cokanasiga, a London-Irish rugby player dressed as a Fijian warrior.  He was part of the traditional welcoming ceremony.

British High Commissioner to Fiji Melanie Hopkins said she was not aware of any confirmation of the visit any time soon.

“There has not been any confirmation made by the Royal Family that there will be a visit by Prince Harry to Fiji.

“But we will be grateful if Prince Harry visits Fiji as it is a common thing for the Royal Family to visit Commonwealth countries,” Ms Hopkins said.
