Meghan Markle 'hated' touring Australia with husband Prince Harry back in October 2018 and found the visit 'pointless,' according to former Vanity Fair editor Tina Brown.
The British writer revealed Meghan's feelings during her time Down Under in her new royal biography, 'The Palace Papers'.
Brown, who was Princess Diana's diarist and had close ties with the royals, discovered Meghan's seemingly unimpressed opinion of Australia through a former Palace staffer.

When the Sussexes arrived in Australia in October 2018, thousands of Australians gathered from all corners of the country to see Harry and Meghan in the flesh.
The press and the public became enamoured by the presence of the two royals as they visited sites in Sydney, Melbourne, Dubbo and Queensland's Fraser Island, as well as going to the Invictus Games.
Despite the warm reception and a lively itinerary, Brown claims Meghan actually loathed the trip.
'So, Meghan must have been thrilled with it all … right? No. She apparently hated every second of it,' she wrote.
'She didn't understand why things were set up in that way. Instead of being excited when thousands of people showed up at the Opera House, it was very much like, 'What's the purpose? I don't understand this',' a Palace employee told Brown.
The staffer said Meghan didn't appear to grasp the 'representational role' of the British monarchy when they toured, adding she was more interested in 'causes she wanted to spotlight'.
