Former University Classmate Shares Insight into Duchess's Salsa Passion
A previously unseen photo of Meghan Markle has been shared by a former university classmate, revealing a lesser-known side of the Duchess of Sussex's past.
The image, posted on Instagram by Meghan’s former friend Iris Amador, shows the Duchess during a salsa class at Northwestern University, where she studied theatre and international studies. Meghan, dressed in a black turtleneck and dark wash jeans, has her hair pulled back in a low ponytail, striking a casual yet poised appearance.
Amador captioned the photo, “Salsa lessons with the then future-to-be #DuchessOfSussex, in college. #HarryAndMeghanInColombia #MeghanMarkle #SalsaLessons @northwesternu many years ago!”
The photo has sparked a wave of interest from fans, many of whom expressed delight at discovering Meghan's passion for dance. One fan commented, "So beautiful! Thanks for sharing this photo and the background story. Meghan taking salsa classes wow."
In addition to her salsa lessons, Meghan also honed her Spanish skills with Colombian students at Colegio La Giralda in Santa Fe, Bogotá. The Duchess first began learning the language during her internship at the US Embassy in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and through her studies abroad in Madrid, Spain.
