Brace yourselves for the exclusive drama coming from the House of Windsor! Princess Kate and Meghan Markle’s bond could never see the day of the light. Before embracing their royal titles, the women were two fish in the same bowl. They were outsiders, one from a humble British background, the other a bi-racial American actress. On paper, they had every reason to bond. So, what went wrong?
Princess Kate: Kate Demanded An Apology from Meghan
Princess Kate and Meghan’s friendship never got past the awkward small talk. According to Prince Harry’s unfiltered memoir Spare, things between the royal sisters-in-law were always troubling. Harry recounted how Markle and Middleton started fighting over bridesmaid dresses before his wedding, which made Meghan cry.
Moreover, Kate allegedly “grimaced” when Meghan borrowed her lipgloss. And do you know there was a sit-down meeting with both couples to clear the air just after Harry and Meghan’s honeymoon? In ‘Spare,’ the Duke revealed that the future Queen demanded an apology from Meghan over a “baby brain” comment during her pregnancy.
In fact, Kate was livid that she clutched the leather sofa so hard that her fingers turned white! Meghan apologized and added a little context to her remark. She explained that kind of humour was normal among her friends, but William lost it and started pointing fingers at her. He said, “Well, it’s rude, Meghan. These things are not done here.”
Meghan Clapped Back at William
By then, Meghan got annoyed and replied, “If you don’t mind, keep your finger out of my face.” Furthermore, the Duchess revealed on Netflix’s Harry & Meghan on Netflix that she didn’t expect the same formality privately. She recalled her first meeting with the Wales royals when they came over for a meal.
“I remember I was in ripped jeans, and I was barefoot. I’ve always been a hugger,” she explained. Markle had no clue that this type of behaviour was “jarring” for the British people. “The formality carries over on both sides. And that was surprising to me,” she added. With all the revelations in the memoir and docuseries, the family fallout has only worsened.
Harry and Charles haven’t interacted in person for 14 months now. The feud isn’t just between Meghan and Kate anymore; the radio silence is from the whole royal family.
