Been up since 5 but somehow still had to run for the bus," Emily wrote alongside a picture from her coach.

So it seems this trip hasn't been so smooth-sailing after all! However, this trip is extra special as it's Harry and Meghan's first overseas trip together as a married couple, with the pair launching this year's Invictus Games in Sydney.

Speaking about the moment, Emily revealed: "We all knew what was coming to be honest! There couldn't have been any other reason for the call. We were quiet because we were just taking down the lines and quotes."
