Despite the smiles at the time, Meghan Markle "hated every second" touring Australia in 2018 with Prince Harry and said the visit was "pointless", royal sources claim.
The visit, a time-honoured royal tradition dating back to 1867, saw the Duke and Duchess of Sussex spend nearly two weeks in Australia, New Zealand, Tonga and Fiji just one day after announcing their first pregnancy.
At the time, the tour was hailed a success with huge crowds turning out eager to see the newlyweds.
