Prince Harry sparked a royal fan frenzy by resting his arm on the back of his translator's chair next to Meghan Markle.
The Duke and Duchess enjoyed a colourful tribal dance at the Delia Zapata National Centre for the Arts in Bogotá, the nation's capital, on the first day of their four-day visit.
Meghan, 43, was incredibly focused during the performance, while Prince Harry, 39, could be seen whispering to his translator sitting beside the duke.
As Harry sat between the duchess and the couple's English-to-Spanish translator, he rested his arm on the back of the translator's chair.
This gesture sparked a royal fan frenzy on social media.
Fans joked the duke was risking being told off by Meghan, who was sitting beside Harry.
One wrote: "I’m sure Harry got the wrath of Meghan about this!"
Another said: "This is the strangest photo I have ever seen of these two."

A fourth wrote: "Their interpreter's demeanour seemed very professional and friendly."
Meghan seemed unfazed by Harry and remained focused on the performance while chatting with Vice President Francia Márquez.
The duchess pointed to some of the costumes, before shaking hands with the dancers at the end of the performance.
