The relationship between Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton has been a subject of intense speculation and scrutiny. According to a royal expert, Meghan feels there is no reconciliation possible with Kate due to their rumored fallouts over the years, which have made their relationship “poisonous.” The expert claims that Meghan expected Kate to “back her against every difficulty,” suggesting that Meghan felt unsupported by her sister-in-law.
The two women, once portrayed as part of the “Fab Four” alongside their husbands Prince Harry and Prince William, were initially close. However, their relationship has become strained in recent years, particularly after Meghan and Harry’s decision to step back from their royal duties in 2020. The situation was further exacerbated by their controversial comments and interviews, including their Netflix series and the sit-down with Oprah Winfrey, which shed light on the tensions between the two couples.
The expert’s assessment highlights the depth of the rift between Meghan and Kate, implying that the relationship between the two women has reached a point where reconciliation seems unlikely due to the perceived lack of support and the accumulation of grievances over time.
The revelations made by the esteemed royal expert and author, Tom Quinn, in an exclusive interview with The Mirror, shed light on the intricate dynamics within the royal family. According to Quinn, Meghan Markle harbors a sense of disappointment towards Kate Middleton, stemming from the belief that Kate should have been a supportive ally during Meghan’s struggles as an outsider within the royal ranks. Quinn states, “Meghan doesn’t feel guilty about Kate, because she feels that Kate should’ve been the one person in the Royal family to back her against every difficulty. Apart from anything else, Meghan knew Kate was an outsider, so she just couldn’t understand why Kate always towed the Royal line rather than supporting her, Meghan, the other outsider.”
However, the recent announcement of Kate’s cancer diagnosis following abdominal surgery in January has reportedly left Meghan deeply shaken, yet unable to reconcile due to the strained relationship. Quinn elaborated, “Kate’s cancer diagnosis has been a real shock for Meghan, but she can see no way to patch up the relationship simply because it has become so poisonous. She also doesn’t want people saying that she is trying to make things up with Kate just because Kate is ill. Meghan still feels Kate was in the wrong and should apologise before they try to build bridges.”
Notably, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were purportedly unaware of Kate’s health condition until the news became public knowledge. In response, the couple released an official statement expressing their well-wishes for Kate’s healing and privacy during this challenging time: “We wish health and healing for Kate and the family, and hope they are able to do so privately and in peace.”
The ongoing royal rift between Prince Harry and the rest of the royal family has put him in a difficult position, according to reports. It is said that Harry is torn between supporting his wife, Meghan Markle, and maintaining a close relationship with his sister-in-law, Kate Middleton, whom he was once very close to. The loss of his warm and uncomplicated bond with Kate is described as Harry’s second great loss after the passing of his mother, Princess Diana.
The strain in Harry and Kate’s relationship is believed to have been exacerbated by revelations in Harry’s 2023 autobiography, “Spare.” In the book, Harry disclosed personal text messages exchanged between Meghan and Kate regarding a disagreement over Princess Charlotte’s bridesmaid dress. According to Harry’s account, Kate messaged Meghan to complain that Charlotte’s dress did not fit properly, stating that it was “too big, too long, too baggy” and that Charlotte had cried when trying it on at home.
The reported incident between Meghan and Kate involved a discussion about dress alterations for the bridesmaids. Meghan mentioned that a tailor was available to make adjustments, but Kate’s response was described as “cool.” This exchange allegedly left Meghan deeply upset, with reports suggesting she was “sobbing on the floor.” The situation highlights the potential tensions that can arise during high-profile events like royal weddings, where expectations and emotions may run high.
