AFRICA IS WILDLY IMPORTANT TO BOTH MEGHAN AND HARRY. WATCH BELOW WHY THEY CAN'T WAIT TO SHARE THIS SPECIAL PLACE WITH LITTLE ARCHIE.

Baby Archie is set to join Meghan and Harry on royal tour of Africa!

ITV and Us Weekly have reported that later this year, Prince Harry and wife Meghan Markle will jet off to Africa.

The new parents are expected to visit the countries of Angola, Malawi, and South Africa.

With their little son, the parents will continue Princess Diana's humanitarian work.

The former military pilot, 34, and the Suits alum, 37, “will be expanding Harry’s Sentebale charity during the trip,” an insider confirmed Us Weekly.

In October, Archie will be nearly 5 months old.

No word whether Meghan's mother Doria Ragland will join.

Prince George was just 9 months old when he came with mum Kate Middleton and dad Prince William for his first official royal tour of Australia and New Zealand.

Prince William's little brother is said to expand his charity Sentable when in Malawi.

Prince Henry of Wales founded the charity alongside his friend Prince Seeiso of Lesotho back in 2006.

Sentable supports young people affected by HIV and AIDS in Lesotho, Botswana and Malawi.

Today The Duke of Sussex played in the ninth annual @Sentebale ISPS Handa Polo Cup, held for the first time in Rome, Italy, to raise funds and awareness for Sentebale's work supporting children and young people affected by HIV in southern Africa. Co- founded by The Duke of Sussex in 2006 with Prince Seeiso, @Sentabale has worked for over a decade in Lesotho, Botswana and Malawi to address the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people affected by HIV, providing them with the tools, peer networks, and education to lead healthy and productive lives. Eastern and southern Africa remain the regions most affected by the HIV epidemic - accounting for 45% of the world's HIV infections. Lesotho and Botswana have the second and third highest infection rate of HIV in the world - with children often too afraid to access the life-saving treatment and care available, because there is still too much associated stigma. Sentebale's core programme supporting children living with HIV reaches over 4,600 children and young people each month who are coming to terms with living with HIV through monthly Saturday clubs at local healthcare facilities, and 1,700 youth through residential week-long camps in Lesotho and Botswana. Last year alone, Sentebale's youth volunteers aged between 18 and 24 delivered sexual and reproductive health education, including topics on HIV prevention in schools and communities to over 100,000 of their peers in Lesotho. Support from today's match will help @Sentebale to expand these essential and life-transforming initiatives. To learn more about @Sentebale or lend your support, visit www.sentebale.org or if you're in London on June 11th, please join us for the Sentebale Audi concert at Hampton Court Palace @historicroyalpalaces, more details can be also found on the @Sentebale website Photos: Chris Jackson, Delfina Blaquier

The Sussex royal trio are said to go to Angola, which royal fans will remember as the spot Princess Diana visited.

She famously and bravely walked through the active landmine area without hesitation.

The visual of her in the African country, dressed in protective gear along with a visor is still cherished to this day.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle welcomed their royal baby on May 6th, 2019.
