Viral Tonga Olympic flag bearer Pita Taufatofua was very much a part of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s two-day visit to the Polynesian kingdom this week.
So much so that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex wore the traditional Tongan garb that Taufatofua made famous at the Rio Olympic Opening Ceremony.
“Harry and Meghan making my Olympic outfit look good!” was posted on Taufatofua’s social media.
Taufatofua was in the background of images of the royal couple inspecting the garb. Taufatofua said on social media that he met them.
The 34-year-old has said he plans a Tokyo 2020 Olympic run in a new sport aligned with water, but he has not revealed what the sport is.
