Prince Harry and Meghan Markle kicked off a four-day visit to Australia on April 14.
Throughout the day, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were asked how they should be addressed.
The As Ever founder said that those she met during the visit Down Under should just call her “Meg.”
Following ample brouhaha about her title late last year following a Harper’s Bazaar cover story, Meghan Markle is clarifying what she wishes to be called while on a four-day visit to Australia with her husband, Prince Harry.

Before we return to the present day, let’s back up to November 2025, when a cover story for the magazine mentioned that, when the interviewer visited “a grand brownstone on the Upper East Side that belongs to one of Meghan’s friends,” she was greeted by the house manager, who announced “Meghan, Duchess of Sussex,” even though “we appear to be the only other two people in the house,” according to the writer of the piece.
This snippet from the story generated significant buzz, but, it seems, while she and Harry carry out their Australia visit this week, she’d prefer to go by another moniker.
According to The Telegraph, as the couple visited Melbourne on April 14, they were asked how they preferred to be addressed. To the question, Harry shrugged his shoulders and replied, “However you like,” while Meghan suggested, “Call me Meg?”

The outlet reported that earlier in the day, staff at Melbourne’s Royal Children’s Hospital asked an aide of Harry and Meghan’s how they should be addressed. “Harry and Meghan is fine,” the aide responded. “They’re pretty relaxed.”
This is the first time that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have returned Down Under since their royal tour in 2018, when Meghan announced she was pregnant with their first child, Prince Archie.
“They both love Australia and are really excited to return,” a source told The Telegraph. “Harry has spent a lot of time here and is really looking forward to meeting up with old friends.”

In a massive understatement, much has changed for the couple since they were last in Australia eight years ago. In addition to this visit being as private citizens rather than as working members of the royal family, Harry and Meghan’s trip will also be sans a major part of the royal tours they once undertook—walkabouts, which Vanity Fair described accurately as a slow-paced meet and greet with the public.

“Instead, their goal is to minimize any disruption to the public as they travel to their engagements,” the outlet reported.
