There is no reason why they shouldn’t visit Australia and engage in a mix of business and charitable activities. Despite some labeling their trip as a pseudo-royal tour, Harry and Meghan themselves have not referred to it as such.
Their agenda does not include public appearances or official meetings with dignitaries. Their primary focus is self-promotion alongside charitable endeavors during the trip.
While the turnout may not match their previous visits as working royals, they have received a warm reception from a sizable crowd on their initial day in Australia.
Being public figures, Harry and Meghan attract media attention, ensuring their continued relevance through ongoing coverage.
Their visit to a children’s hospital in Melbourne holds sentimental value, considering Harry’s family history with the institution. Nurses at the hospital mentioned the excitement of the children and families who met the couple in person.
This trip aligns with the Easter break when other royals take time off, avoiding scheduling conflicts. It is unlikely that Harry and Meghan are concerned about conflicting with the royal calendar.
The visit reflects Harry and Meghan’s initial aspirations before stepping back from their royal duties – a blend of earning opportunities and charitable initiatives. Their actions align with their stated intentions from the beginning.
While some may find Meghan’s involvement in commercial ventures, like offering photo opportunities at a women’s retreat, questionable, it is consistent with her brand aspirations for As Ever.
The perceived controversy surrounding their activities seems unfounded, considering they are pursuing their planned agenda in Australia.
