Prince Harry and Kate Middleton have always been very protective of each other.
In its April 25 issue, Closer UK claimed that Prince Harry had no idea that Meghan Markle would discuss her incident with Middleton during their interview with Oprah Winfrey.
In his column for the magazine, royal commentator Duncan Larcombe said that there are rumors that Markle went off-script.
“Meghan was the driving force behind the reports that Kate made her cry, but we simply don’t know how much Harry was aware of what Meghan was going to say in advance. But body language experts have suggested that Meghan went off script, but what we do know is that Harry was seething at his brother at the time,” the source said.
Larcombe also said that much of the tensions between the Sussexes and Cambridges were caused by Markle. After all, she’s not happy with her husband and Middleton’s closeness.
“Meghan was disappointed that she and Kate hadn’t bonded over the position they shared,” he said.
Larcombe added that he’s sure Markle is not happy with Prince Harry and Middleton’s closeness.
“It’s perception but I imagine the last person Meghan would want Harry to be talking to is Kate. She would not want Harry and Kate to have that brotherly sisterly relationship because Meghan’s world revolves around Meghan. I think she struggled with Kate because she really was a very hard act to follow, an almost impossible one,” the source said.
Additionally, Markle reportedly felt hurt by Middleton’s lack of effort to reach out to her.
“So, I think she’ll have genuine fears over Harry’s soft spot for Kate. It’s Harry’s choice how he plays this, but I can’t see him ever criticizing Kate even if Meghan disagrees. You can’t just erase everything Kate gave Harry – the support, advice, years of friendship,” Larcombe said.
However, it is not true that Markle has fears about Prince Harry and Middleton’s closeness. After all, the in-laws were already close even before she joined the royal family.
And even if Prince Harry and Middleton still share a special bond with each other, there’s no denying the fact that the former would always side with his wife. This is also the reason why the Sussexes and the Cambridges’ feud have not been resolved. But this never involved Prince Harry and Middleton.
