When you think you can't love a family more!

Harkle and Markle wanted to meet the Irwins (of course they did!)

The Duchess of Sussex, 44, had reportedly hoped to catch up with celebrity conservationist Robert Irwin, 22, and his family at Australia Zoo in Queensland.

'Aligning with the Irwins worthy causes is something that Meghan and Harry could be on board with,' an insider tells this week's New Idea magazine. 

However, the meeting did not go ahead, with New Idea reporting the Irwins politely declined the invitation due to their strong ties as monarchists.

'They meant no ill-will towards the Sussexes, but at the end of the day they are all staunch monarchists and fiercely loyal to The Firm,' an insider told the publication.
