The review follows renewed demands from the Trump administration that America's allies in the Indo-Pacific – including Australia – significantly increase defence spending. 'The department is reviewing AUKUS as part of ensuring that this initiative of the previous administration is aligned with the President's America First agenda,' a US defence official confirmed.

Since May 2024, Wilson had been under a court conservatorship to oversee his personal and medical affairs. The Beach Boys rank among the most popular groups of the rock era, with more than 30 singles in the Top 40 and worldwide sales of more than 100 million.

Queensland senator James McGrath is being considered as a candidate to spearhead the wider review.
