Meghan Markle's university classmate has shared a throwback photo of the Duchess of Sussex learning to dance.
The duchess's former classmate, Iris Amador, shared a throwback photo to Instagram of Meghan, herself, and three other people at a Salsa class at Northwestern University.
Meghan graduated from the school with a double major in theatre and international studies in 2003.
The former Suits actress is pictured wearing a black turtleneck jumper and dark wash jeans, with her hair pulled back into a low ponytail.
Amador captioned the post: "Salsa lessons with the then future-to-be #DuchessOfSussex, in college.
"#HarryAndMeghanInColombia #MeghanMarkle #SalsaLessons @northwesternu many years ago!"
One royal fan commented underneath: "So beautiful! Thanks for sharing this photo and the background story. Meghan taking salsa classes wow. Can’t wait to see them in Cali."
Another wrote: "Thank you for sharing this! Finally getting to see Meghan salsa dancing was everything! It’s so uplifting to see those lessons paying off so beautifully!"
Meghan showed off her salsa skills during her recent visit to Colombia with Prince Harry.
After attending several activities aligned with their nonprofit Archewell Foundation, including making school visits and hosting an Invictus Games training session, they got to immerse themselves in Colombian culture through dance.
A video captured the royal couple salsa-dancing in the historic city of Cartagena.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex enjoyed the music before sharing a sweet kiss.

Meanwhile, Harry donned a blue linen shirt and beige khakis.
As well as salsa dancing, the duchess also practised her Spanish with Colombian students at Colegio La Giralda, a public school in Santa Fe, Bogotá.
She first learned the language while interning at the US Embassy in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and studying abroad in Madrid, Spain.
