Meghan, Duchess of Sussex
Australia trip
Sydney, Australia
The Duchess takes part in her husband's work as a youth ambassador to the Commonwealth, which includes overseas tours. The first such trip was to Australia, Fiji, Tonga, and New Zealand in October 2018. Despite public debate on the future of the monarchy in Australia, the couple was greeted by crowds in Sydney, and the announcement of the Duchess's pregnancy hours after their arrival was received enthusiastically by the public and media.
