What caused the breakup between Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton?

Nell’shock interview a Oprah Winfrey, Meghan Markle he also spoke of eternal rival Kate Middleton. Accusing her of making her cry, a few days before her royal wedding with Harry, “for a problem concerning the dresses of the bridesmaid, her daughter Charlotte”. Rivers of ink have spilled over the tensions between the royal sisters-in-law. But what is at the roots of the tear? Richard Kay, real correspondent of the Daily Mail, argues that Meghan was obsessed with Kate. Because in his opinion she was treated very differently from that of William’s wife. The duchess herself made it clear during the CBS special: when she was still a royal, she was portrayed as “the bad one”, while Kate always passed for “the good heroine”.

Kate, claims the royal expert, “She could have been Meghan’s greatest ally, the friend who could help her adapt to real life ». It didn’t happen that way. And to say that Kate has always had a good relationship with Harry, so much so that the prince once described it as “The sister” he had always wanted. And here, perhaps, “lies the heart of the problem”: “Meghan was she jealous of the close bond between Harry, William and Kate?».

Another royal expert, the British journalist Tom Quinn, is instead convinced that the first tensions between sisters-in-law began because the Duchess of Sussex he couldn’t digest the idea that the future queen was Kate“. She could not tolerate having to stay one step behind her sister-in-law not being able to be at the center of family and media attention. In short, the Duchess of Sussex he would suffer from the inferiority of his rank. In addition she didn’t like living in Nottingham Cottage much loved by her husband Harry. The first residence of the dukes after their royal wedding (which was followed by the move to Frogmore Cottage) was “too small compared to William and Kate’s apartment».

Whatever they are the roots of the (reciprocal) antipathy between sister-in-law, it is certain that the partnership between the Fab Four, as they called them in the beginning, soon showed deep crepe. And soon the gossip began to talk about quarrels between brothers, shouts, slammed doors, tears. It had been just six months since the royal wedding with Harry when it was word got out that Meghan had made Kate cry. The Duchess of Sussex, in the interview with Oprah, also wanted to clarify this point: the opposite happened. So much so that Kate, then, “apologized and brought me some flowers.” The Markle, however, according to the newspaper The Times, did not tell everything: when Kate showed up al Nottingham Cottage, Meghan «he slammed the door in her face and threw the flowers “.
