Prince Harry has arrived in Zambia without his wife Meghan amid reports the pregnant duchess pulled out of the trip due to fears over the Zika viarus.
The Duke of Sussex, 34, was in good spirits as he touched down at Lusaka airport on Monday afternoon local time to be greeted by Zambian officials.
Harry will complete the two-day tour of the southern African country alone while his pregnant wife rests up with her mother, who is visiting Britain.
Officially, Harry was always supposed to make the trip alone in his role as president of African Parks but palace insiders have said that it was intended to be a joint visit.

Harry left London on Saturday night and is expected to attend an official reception with Zambian officials later today.
His trip will also see him visit the Burma Barracks in the capital Lusaka, where he will commemorate the country's World War veterans.
Meghan, 37, is believed to have been told to avoid foreign trips that risk exposing her to the Zika virus.
An insider told the Sun: 'As far as those on the ground in Zambia were concerned both Meghan and Harry were going. But Meghan is exhausted and, understandably, expressed serious concerns about travelling to a country with even the smallest Zika threat.

In October, Public Health England warned pregnant women not travel to a region of India amid fears they could be struck down with Zika.
Zika can cause microcephaly for children in the womb, causing babies to be born with abnormally small skulls.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
