Meghan and Harry join ‘anti-bad vibes’ circle on Bondi Beach
Kensington Palace announced on Monday that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are expecting their first child.
The same day the royal couple flew to Australia to begin a 16-day tour of Australia, Fiji, Tonga and New Zealand.
Meghan has been debuting her small baby bump whilst attending royal engagements in Australia this week.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have visited schools, communities struggling with drought, and met with Australian officials.
Today they headed to Bondi beach in Sydney, to meet with local mental health advocates.
Before the meeting, Meghan revealed she woke up at 4.30am to do some yoga, telling a group at Bondi beach that yoga was "so good for healing your mind".
Meghan’s early morning yoga session comes as she compared her pregnancy to having jet lag.
Charlotte Connell, 35, attended Bondi Beach with her son Finn and said the Duchess had been suffering from the "double whammy" of jet lag and pregnancy.
Mrs Connell, who is 23 weeks pregnant, said: "Meghan told me that pregnancy was like having jet lag.
"She said she was up at 4.30am this morning doing yoga in her room as she couldn't sleep.
"It's a bit of a double whammy for her, she said, as she has both the baby and jet lag to contend with."
Meghan and Harry visited the iconic east coast beach for Fluro Friday, a weekly session held by local surfing group OneWave, aimed at encouraging discussions around mental health.
They arrived at 8.30am and were presented with garlands - pink for the Duchess and blue for the Duke - before they walked up the beach.
They then took part in an “anti-bad vibes” circle as part of the mental health positive day.
Harry and Meghan spent about 10 minutes listening to the experiences of other members of the group and sharing their own.
Dabriella Quayle, 37, said afterwards: "Oh my goodness, they were just so real, so relatable.
“They shared their own experiences, which was amazing.
"Harry said seeking help was the best thing he had ever done. He was really open and honest.
“He said it doesn't matter who you open up to, they don't have to be professional.
"Anyone can be there for you. It could be your best mate or a stranger. You just need to open up to them."
