Kensington Palace said there would be “no changes” to the royal tour to Australia, Fiji, Tonga and New Zealand as a result of the news.
The couple has just started their royal tour of Australia, which will last 16 days and coincides with the fourth Invictus Games, which begins in Sydney on Saturday.
This visit is a mirror of Prince Harry’s parents – Prince Charles and Diana, Princess of Wales – whose first married royal tour was to Australia and New Zealand.
