It's a packed trip

By Rebecca Fearn.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's Australia tour is taking place in a mere month's time, and their packed-out schedule for the trip has just been revealed.

The couple's journey will see them visit New Zealand, Fiji and Tonga as well as Australia in a bid to strengthen relations with Commonwealth nations (Harry became a Commonwealth youth ambassador earlier this year). The trip also seeks to focus on the recovery servicemen and women through the 2018 Invictus Games.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will arrive in Australia on Tuesday October 16 and will return from their trip on Wednesday October 31. They will start their tour in Sydney before going to Dubbo in New South Wales (October 17) and Melbourne (October 18) and then return to Sydney for three days for the Invictus Games.

Harry and Meghan will next go to Fraser Island in Queensland (October 22) before travelling to Fiji and Tonga and finishing their trip back in Sydney and returning home to the UK.

We're so excited to see how the couple get on on their first overseas trip together as husband and wife. Invite us along next time though, guys?
