In their pursuit of a more independent life, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have provided insights into the circumstances surrounding their decision to step back from senior royal roles in 2020. Through various platforms, including their Netflix documentary “Harry & Meghan,” Prince Harry’s memoir “Spare,” and a high-profile interview with Oprah Winfrey, the couple has shed light on the pressures they faced from the media and the monarchy.
The Oprah interview, aired in early 2021, marked the first time they publicly discussed their experiences, detailing instances that contributed to their eventual departure. Harry and Meghan spoke candidly about the challenges they encountered, including tensions within the royal family and concerns over their well-being.
In the documentary and memoir, they further elaborated on the breakdown of relationships with Prince William and King Charles, as well as the impact of intense media scrutiny on their lives. Their revelations have provided a rare glimpse into the inner workings of the British royal family and the personal struggles that led to their decision to forge a new path.
In the ongoing saga surrounding the British royal family, Meghan Markle addressed the widely reported incident where she was accused of making Kate Middleton cry over a disagreement regarding Princess Charlotte’s bridesmaid dress before Meghan’s 2018 wedding. Meghan refuted this claim, stating that the situation was actually the reverse, with Kate being the one who upset her. The alleged texts between the two were leaked, leading to Kate’s inability to forgive Meghan.
According to a source cited by OK! magazine, Kate viewed Meghan’s interview with Oprah Winfrey as the “ultimate betrayal” and has drawn a “hard line in the sand,” refusing to change her stance on the matter. The source claimed that Kate can “never forgive” Meghan, as the couple never apologized for their perceived lies. While Prince William hopes to extend an olive branch to his brother Harry, the source alleges that Kate was “incensed” by the interview, leading to a significant argument with William. Kate reportedly stated that she would “never forgive Meghan for what she did” and is not open to reconciliation.
This insider account sheds light on the ongoing tensions within the royal family, particularly between Kate and Meghan, following the high-profile interview and the resurfacing of past disagreements.
They continued: “But Kate feels that Harry and especially Meghan have done enough damage to the royal family, and will do even more damage if they’re let back in.”
