Thousands turn up to see Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in Melbourne

Crowds waiting to see Harry and Meghan are growing every day and thousands more turned out in Melbourne compared to Sydney days earlier

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have wrapped up a hugely successful visit to Melbourne on the third day of their Australian tour. 

The day ran nearly an hour overtime, but that didn't stop thousands of locals staying put at venues for a glimpse of the popular Duke and Duchess of Sussex ‑ if not a hug.

The day began with a walkabout at Melbourne's Government House, including meeting young innovators and entrepreneurs, lunch of native Australian ingredients, a school visit, tram ride and visit to South Melbourne beach.

The Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle, who is four months pregnant, tried her hand at Australian Football League with a handball, appearing quite natural even though she wasn't dressed for sport in towering stilettos on the lawns of Government House.

The Royal Couple will tour Fiji from next Tuesday till next Thursday.
