“Oh, look at those. It doesn’t get any better than that, does it? This type of silky camouflage… only in Australia would you get something like this. It’s so wrong, but it’s wonderful.” Posing for a photograph, Harry joked: “With or without the budgie smugglers? It so tempting…” He then slipped the Aussie flag trunks over his trousers.
Harry was chatting to Dylan, Matt and team co-captain Nicole Bradley when they paid a visit to Admiralty
House, the Governor General’s residence where the royals are staying while in Sydney.
The prince and his 37-year-old wife also chatted to children at the Olympic Park during a day of laughter and fun.
It emerged 12 weeks pregnant Meghan has decided to pull out of a host of events on her first major royal tour due to exhaustion.
The pair, who will not seek any official royal role for their first child, are a week into their 16-day tour Down Under, taking on 76 engagements without a day off.
She spent yesterday morning resting while Harry was at the cycling event as part of the Invictus Games.

Royal sources claim Harry has told Meghan to slow down after she felt tired when the opening ceremony overran by nearly two hours.
She attended a reception hosted by Australian PM Scott Morrison yesterday afternoon but is said to be “feeling tired” after the constant travelling and hectic scheduling.
A palace spokesman said: “After a busy programme, the duke and duchess have decided to cut back the duchess’s schedule slightly for the next couple of days, ahead of the final week and a half of the tour.”
On Tuesday Harry and Meghan travel to Fiji, Tonga on Thursday before flying back to Australia on Friday for the Invictus Games closing ceremony the day after. THE Duchess of Sussex did not tell her dad she was having a baby, it has been revealed.
Thomas Markle, 74, heard the announcement on his car radio as he drove across the Us-mexico border in the early hours.
The retired Hollywood lighting director said: “The first thing I thought about was holding Meghan in my arms as a newborn 37 years ago.
“I thought, ‘My baby is having a baby’. It was a very proud moment.
“I was filled with love, joy and happiness for both my beautiful daughter and my son-in-law.
“A new baby is a blessing and I look forward to seeing a little Meghan or a little Harry.”
He told the Mail on Sunday she will make a “fantastic mother” when the child is born in spring.
He added: “Meghan loves children and she and Harry have been talking about wanting a family from the start. I’m delighted.”
Kensington Palace had refused to say whether he was told before the announcement last Monday.
A rift has grown between the Duchess and her dad since he was caught staging paparazzi pictures ahead of her May wedding.
