Meghan Markle's Controversial Australia Tour

Meghan Markle's Controversial Australia Tour

The tour has drawn significant criticism and concern from Palace officials over the commercialization of the Duchess's wardrobe and public appearances.

While the couple met with survivors of the Bondi Beach terror attack, the focus on Meghan's fashion choices and paid events has overshadowed the trip's charitable objectives.

Prince Harry and Meghan also attended a Super Rugby match and sailed around Sydney Harbour, delighting crowds but fueling the debate over their post-royal status.

Critics have labeled the tour a 'privacy tour' and slammed local elites for fawning over the couple.
