Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will be heading to Dublin, Ireland for an official engagement.

The Kensington Palace released a statement regarding the couple’s first official trip as a married couple this week.

One Dublin resident reacted to the news of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s upcoming visit. Jim Kearns, who works at the Brown Thomas store, said, “I am delighted to hear they are coming, of course and they will be made very welcome. I think most people in the republic are very respectful of the royal family. The Queen’s visit in 2011 went down very and also the visit of Prince Charles last week. I think personally it is very good thing out two peoples moving closer together,” he told Express.

Amy O’Brien, another resident of Dublin, is positive that Prince Harry and Markle’s visit next month will help boost tourism.

Markle and Prince Harry’s itinerary will include a trip to the capital’s university, Trinity College, where they will meet Michael D. Higgins, the president of Ireland.
