Like all parents, they didn’t go home empty-handed and it wasn’t long before Meghan pulled out the souvenirs she’d brought home.
The loot included letters to Lilibet from fans, Australian-themed sticker books and, of course, a pack of TimTams that were immediately dug into.
The royal family also posted a recap of the trip on her profile with never-before-seen moments, captioning it: “Australia, you have our hearts.”

By many accounts, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s tour was a roaring success, and the Royal Family will probably think twice about it.
“Harry and Meghan are polarizing but adored and have shown the Windsors what could have happened on a non-royal tour on their terms,” nine.com.au’s royal reporter Natalie Oliveri said.

“Prince Harry and Meghan are still in servicebut in their own way. And they still tick all the boxes of what royals would normally do on a tour like this, but they choose the agenda that suits them.
“They were able to achieve their half-in, half-out approach,” she said.
“One can only imagine what King Charles and Prince William would think.”
