TalkTV presenter Mark Dolan was left taken aback after royal biographer and journalist Ingrid Stewart made a shocking claim live on air. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are scheduled to visit Australia next month for a series of private, business, and philanthropic engagements.
It is understood that their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, will not be accompanying them on the trip. Their upcoming visit marks their first return to Australia since their official royal tour in 2018.
But the Sussexes’ have been dealt a humiliating blow, according to the royal expert, after being quizzed about their visit Down Under, which has been dubbed by commentators as a “quasi royal tour”.
Speaking on Tuesday, Mark asked: “Ingrid, what do you think of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s decision to travel to Australia next month? Many criticised their faux royal tour in the Middle East a few weeks ago.”
The couple, who stepped down as working royals in 2020, embarked on a two-day visit to Jordan at the invitation of World Health Organisation (WHO) last month.
