Prince Harry and Meghan kicked off a four-day Australia trip Tuesday, arriving in Melbourne from Los Angeles.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have not visited Australia in eight years. Their most recent trip to the country was in 2018, when the couple were still senior working members of the British royal family and announced Meghan’s first pregnancy with Prince Archie after arriving in Sydney.
