Why Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Are Headed to Australia? Sussexes Confirm Sydney, Melbourne Return

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry will return to Australia in mid April, with a spokesperson confirming on Sunday that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are due in the country for private, business and philanthropic engagements, with Sydney and Melbourne reported as planned stops. For Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, it will be their first visit to Australia in more than seven years, and this time they are travelling as private figures rather than working royals.

For context, the announcement follows a recent two-day trip to Jordan with the World Health Organisation, described in coverage of the Australia plans as the couple's first international tour in 18 months. Their spokesperson's statement was brief and careful, saying only that they would visit Australia in mid-April and that further details would be shared in due course, which leaves a good deal of the trip still under wraps.
