Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have subtly addressed the negative media attention they received recently through an Instagram post.
The royal couple shared one of revolutionary Nelson Mandela’s most inspiring quotes through their Sussex Royal Instagram account ahead of their royal tour of Africa.

The Instagram post contained the following caption:
“Sharing a powerful quote to start the week. Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela was a true leader, a South African anti-apartheid revolutionary and philanthropist who served as President of South Africa from 1994 to 1999.”
The powerful quote read, “It is easy to break down and destroy. The heroes are those who make peace and build.”
Meghan and Harry are known to share inspirational quotes on their Instagram account, however many royal fans believe there may be more to the Nelson Mandela quote than meets the eye.
“Is that shade coming from my royals? I love it,” one user wrote, followed by another who said, “Ha ha subtle and yet very clear.”
A third person wrote: “We love you and keep doing what you are doing. The haters are just louder but the people who love you are many. Thank you for being such amazing role models.”
“Rise above the haters, Harry and Meghan! There are so many more people who love you both,” said another.
“Keep up the good work you are doing. Don’t listen to the haters. You two are amazing,” another user agreed.
According to their Instagram account, the royal family will begin their first official tour of Africa with their son Archie on September 23.
Last month, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex – who have been very vocal about climate change in the past – were attacked online when it was revealed the couple (and their son baby Archie) took a private jet to Nice, to stay at friend Elton John’s mansion.
