Prince Harry and Meghan in Australia

Prince Harry and Meghan in Australia

Harry and Meghan's itinerary includes high-profile ticketed events and meetings with various charities, but notably excludes traditional public walkabouts.

The tour has sparked controversy due to the high cost of attendance for some events, with tickets for a 'girls' weekend' retreat featuring the Duchess priced at £1,700.

A petition demanding no taxpayer funding for the trip has reached 45,000 signatures.

Despite the backlash, the couple's office maintains the visit is aimed at community resilience and supporting military families.
