Prince Harry and Meghan Markle share a quote from Nelson Mandela

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle who are set to embark their Africa trip along with son Archie published a powerful quote from former South African president Nelson Mandela about leadership on their joint Instagram handle.

“It is so easy to break down and destroy. The heroes are those who make peace and build.”

The quote appears to swipe at the critics who recently slammed the couple for their decision to use a private jet to go to South Africa.
