Just because Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were busy planning a wedding [1], it doesn't mean they weren't getting sh*t done. It was quite the opposite, actually. After ringing in the new year in Monaco [2], the couple got right back to work and continued with their royal engagements [3]. Meghan officially announced her first charity as a royal [4] and she's also been accompanying Harry on his patronages. More recently, Harry and Meghan completed their first royal tour as husband and wife [5] in Australia and New Zealand. Oh, and let's not forget that they're going to be parents [6] next year! We're already tired just from thinking about all of these firsts, but you know what they say: work hard, play hard!
