Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s planned Australia trip is already running into trouble — and they haven’t even landed yet. Reports say the visit may double as a filmed travel and lifestyle series, but the reaction Down Under is turning sharply negative.

A planned wellness retreat appearance is facing scrutiny over unfinished hotel amenities, financial questions around the organizer, and even reports of so-called “poo balls” washing up on nearby beaches. Meanwhile, media coverage in Australia has been brutal, with critics calling the couple “desperate for relevance” and warning they may not get the استقبال they expect.

A petition with more than 10,000 signatures is also pushing for the couple to be treated strictly as private individuals, with no taxpayer support — bluntly stating: “We don’t want you here.”

Plus, Meghan is reportedly testing a return to podcasting during the trip, using a guest appearance as a soft relaunch. We break down the strategy — and why the reaction may already be predictable.
Is this a comeback tour — or a PR problem waiting to happen?
