Harry, 37, and Markle, 40, arrived in NYC Monday along with their children, Archie and Lilibet.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Harry gave a keynote address to the UN on Nelson Mandela International Day. He also spoke about his love of Africa since his first visit at age 13. It was then when Harry revealed the special connection it holds for him and Markle.
"For most of my life, it has been my lifeline, a place where I found peace and healing time and time again," said Harry.
"It's where I felt closest to my mother and sought solace after she died, and where I knew I had found a soulmate in my wife. And it’s why so much of my work is based there."

Markle was also spotted with journalist Gloria Steinem while in NYC for the UN address. The "Suits" actress previously spoke with Steinem to Vogue reporter Jessica Yellin about the overturn of Roe v. Wade.
"This is having a very real impact on women’s bodies and lives starting now. Women are already sharing stories of how their physical safety is being put in danger," Markle said.

Some will have to source abortion pills from unregulated pharmacies. Others who are pregnant and find themselves in a medical emergency will be at the mercy of doctors and lawyers to determine if a procedure that is needed to save her life can even be done at all."
Steinem added, "A big part of the problem, of course, is that we have a Supreme Court that does not represent the country. Perhaps because I’ve been here longer, which means I’ve been here before, I say we are going to do what we need and wish to do."
