They were farewelled shortly after 2pm at the Defence Establishment Fairbairn, Camberra, and will change planes in Sydney to fly on to London.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge did not change their clothes for their farewell following a morning of attending commemorative services for ANZAC Day.

Prince George was rugged up in an adorable red cardigan and doted upon by the farewell party which included Prime Minister Tony Abbott and his wife Margie, Governor-General Sir Peter Cosgrove and his wife Lady Cosgrove and Opposition Leader Bill Shorten.
