When Nacho shared a photo of the pair posing with their arms crossed and flexing their muscles while standing in a gift shop that appeared to sell home goods like backpacks and slippers, the pair revealed that they had spent time shopping while in Tokyo, Japan.

Argentine polo player Nacho captioned the picture, “Shopping for our wives,” and added, “Big thank you to Tokyo for your generous hospitality and kindness towards us. Of course, thank you for continuing to support @sentebale.

Daddy of two The day Meghan attended the Taylor Swift Eras Tour concert, Harry was seen arriving at Haneda Airport. Nacho, Dan Carter, Sophie Chandauka MBE, Wim de Villiers, the rector and vice chancellor of Stellenbosch University in South Africa, and Steve James, a veteran of the Royal Australian Navy and gold medalist at the Invictus Games, also attended the summit.
Photos from MailOnline show Harry giggling on stage with Dr. Handa as they discuss the power of sports and the value of teamwork.
“I have long believed that sport is a conduit for healing – not just for the mind and body, but for the world,” Harry said. “The lessons we learn on the job are the same philanthropic principles that we learn in school: that with a mission, hard work, dedication, and partnership, anything is possible. No one ever crosses a finish line or scores a goal without the assistance and belief of others, whether they work together in victory or comport themselves with respect in defeat. For me, that is the strength of sport.

The two will fly to Singapore on Saturday for the annual Sentebale ISPS Handa Polo Cup charity event.
“Sentebale’s important work ensuring children and young people are healthy, resilient, and able to thrive depends on the annual Polo Cup. The money raised this year will go towards our Clubs and Camps programme, which offers young people living with HIV intensive psychosocial support, according to Harry.
Nacho spoke warmly of his “solid” friend Harry and the union between the Duke and his wife the Duchess of Sussex to HELLO! during the event in Aspen, Colorado in 2022.

The pair won the Sentebale ISPS Hand Polo Cup for the second consecutive year in 2022, but the South American athlete also claimed that Harry has a “competitive” side that is ideal for their polo matches.
He is devoted, competitive, and caring. He doesn’t seem to try to impress me, and our relationship has changed over the years,” Nacho said of Harry.
“I have known him for such a long time, and he has always wanted to find someone to love, marry, and have a family with, so it makes me so happy to see them happy and with two beautiful children,” he continued.
Nacho, a Sentebale ambassador since the organization’s founding in 2006, stated that he has personally witnessed “that the work they’re doing is so important.”

“I have been to Lesotho several times and have seen the impact it has on these kids and how it gives them a better life, so seeing that and being able to support one of my good friends for a cause close to his heart is wonderful,” the man continued.
