Recent reports have emerged that Meghan Markle might try to mend fences now with Princess Kate. It has been a while since things were okay between the Duchess of Sussex and the Princess of Wales; though for the most part, the problems had been anticipated to happen before and shortly after the wedding of Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Meghan and Kate’s feud started to take center stage this year. As several news reports surfaced, Meghan had offended Kate sometime before the wedding, and in some accounts, this supposedly made Kate cry. Later on, Meghan would dispute that version of events, saying that didn’t happen-that, in fact, it had been the other way around. Meghan, in an interview she gave to Oprah Winfrey in 2021, spoke about it: “The narrative with Kate-which didn’t happen-was really, really difficult and.I think that’s when everything changed, really.” Continuing, “I don’t say that to be disparaging to anyone, because it was a really hard week of the wedding and she was upset about something, but she owned it, and she apologised.”
Meghan further continued to say that personal issues should not interfere with wider relationships. She added, “If you love me, you don’t have to hate her. And if you love her, you don’t need to hate me”. Kensington Palace and Buckingham Palace said nothing about the details of Harry and Meghan’s claims.
A source close to the situation said earlier this year, as King Charles faced a cancer diagnosis and just before Princess Kate’s own surprising health news was revealed, Meghan had made an overture to heal the rift. According to sources speaking with Us Weekly, Meghan reached out to both Kate and Charles, signaling a desire to make amends. One source said, “Meghan has reached out to Kate and Charles. So moves are being made to reconcile.” A different insider confirmed the news, stating: “Meghan is supportive of Harry in all of this, and she wishes the royals-Kate included-the very best.”
It’s a rather complex and constantly evolving relationship-which Meghan Markle and Princess Kate have continuously strived to make amends for, sharing a common hope of healing and standing by one another through the challenges they have faced, both in and out of the public eye.
