They were greeted by crowds when they arrived at the Royal Children&#8217;s Hospital in Melbourne.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Royal commentator Lee Cohen believes the Australia tour is a &#8220;bad look&#8221; for <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/prince-harry\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|AutoLink\">Prince Harry<\/a> and Meghan and suggested &#8220;Australian&#8217;s didn&#8217;t ask for the Sussex circus&#8221;.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>He claimed the &#8220;former royal couple&#8221; are now &#8220;B-grade reality stars&#8221; in a brutal takedown. Speaking on GB News, Cohen claimed the tour exemplifies the &#8220;lowest form of self-promotion&#8221; after visiting a hospital for sick children and a women&#8217;s refuge.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Bev remarked: &#8220;That is a damning assessment of the situation but it is hard to pick any holes in what you&#8217;ve just said. The only thing I would say, just trying to be a bit more compassionate at this point, but they could have gone out there and just pursued business plans.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;They could have done these retreats that she&#8217;s charging tickets for. They could have sold tickets to theatre. Maybe we should give them a little bit of credit for wanting to raise awareness for some social issues?&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Cohen replied: &#8220;The Australian press are asking, &#8216;Why are they here?&#8217;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;The pair represent no government or institution. They only represent themselves. They seem to continue to exploit the goodwill of Harry&#8217;s birthright, which quite frankly, is the only thing that makes them compelling at all for the cameras.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>He continued: &#8220;They are happy to let the Australian taxpayers&#8217; foot some of the security bill for the privilege of spreading whatever message they&#8217;re spreading.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;I think these quasi-royal tours are tone deaf and a bad look for them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Viewers reacted to Cohen&#8217;s comments, as one person argued: &#8220;So how do you explain how happy everyone is to see them?&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Another echoed: &#8220;The people and children didn&#8217;t need to show up to see the Royals, they could have stayed away.
