Prince William’s South African visit hit a high note with a meeting alongside President Cyril Ramaphosa outside the President’s Official Residence in Cape Town.
Both leaders smiled for photos in a show of unity and shared commitment to environmental progress.
Although Ramaphosa won’t be attending the highly anticipated Earthshot Prize ceremony on Wednesday, the event promises to bring a glittering lineup of international celebrities and influential figures, especially from Africa.
Among the stars gracing the green carpet are supermodel Heidi Klum and actress Nina Dobrev, who are set to announce this year’s five recipients of the prestigious £1 million environmental prize.
While the Princess of Wales won’t be present due to her ongoing recovery from cancer, the award ceremony, now in its fourth year and first on African soil, remains the cornerstone of William’s visit, amplifying African innovation in the fight against climate change.
Kensington Palace has likened the upcoming ceremony to the "Super Bowl" moment for Prince William, highlighting the significance of the event in his environmental advocacy.
On Monday, the Prince of Wales kicked off his four-day visit to South Africa by meeting with young leaders dedicated to combating climate change at the inaugural Earthshot Prize Climate Leaders Youth Programme.
Engaging with 120 passionate environmentalists from Africa and Southeast Asia, William listened to their innovative sustainability projects and shared experiences.
