Girls just want to have fun, and a weekend getaway in the sun was a highlight on Meghan Markle’s visit to Australia. The Sydney beach weekend was marketed as “an unforgettable weekend for women ready to reconnect, recharge and have some serious fun,” targeted to Her Best Life podcast listeners.
“This is your chance to step away from everyday life and spend a weekend focusing on connection, growth, joy and celebration,” the website boasted. The retreat had space for 300 women and the VIP tickets—which featured the most face-time with Meghan Markle herself—cost $2,285 per person to attend. “We could not adore you more, Meghan!” host Gemma O’Neill wrote on Instagram. “Thank you for your vulnerability, honesty and joy,” she said in the post, featuring a series of photos from the in-person conversation between the podcast host and Meghan Markle.
