Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Australia Visit Sparks Royal Watch

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle starts their Australia tour again, and according to reports Buckingham Palace is closely monitor them.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s non-royal tour is reportedly viewed by royal sources as a “stress test” for the monarchy.

The couple reportedly travelled on a commercial flight and are undertaking a four-day tour across cities like Melbourne, Canberra, and Sydney, focusing on mental health, community resilience, and veterans’ welfare. The visit could serve as a blueprint for similar independent tours in the future.

The tour is considered as “a significant joint tour and could prove to be a blueprint for future tours together of this type.”

Royal expert Matt Wilkinson warned that success in Australia “will be a dummy run and testing ground for a potential joint tour of the UK.”

Further, Daniela Elser a Royal commentator commented that this tour could prove “as rousing a bobby dazzler as the duke and duchess’ 2018 outing was, you have to wonder if it might trigger anything so much like a twinge of Palace regret over their handling of Megxit.”

She said the visit risks turning into, “the strongest, most glaring reminder of how they managed to let the monarchy’s most photogenic trump cards slip through their pasty fingers way back when.”

According to a palace source, they also have “eyes peeled and closely watching the reaction that the couple receive in Australia.”
