The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will visit the world’s largest sand island on the next stop of their first tour as a married couple.
Mother-to-be Meghan, who missed an engagement on Sunday to rest following a late Saturday night at the Invictus Games opening ceremony, has been told by Harry to make sure she is getting enough rest during the 16-day tour.
A Royal source said: “She wants to do everything, but Prince Harry is encouraging her to pace herself.”
The trip to Fraser Island, or K’gari as it is known by the Traditional Owners the Butchulla people, will see the Duke head to a rainforest where he will take part in a traditional country smoking ceremony.
There, he will unveil a plaque for the dedication of the Forests of K’Gari to the Queen’s Commonwealth Canopy before travelling to meet local elders and national park rangers.
The day will conclude with the Duke travelling to Kingfisher Bay for a walkabout along the jetty.
