Meghan put Kate in the firing line during her tell-all interview with her close friend and US talk show legend, Oprah Winfrey, which aired on ITV earlier this month. Just minutes into the broadcast, she revived reports which had been circulating six months after the Sussexes’ 2018 wedding. They claimed Kate had been left in tears after a row with the new royal bride over flower-girl dresses. Meghan told Oprah that the incident had been inaccurately reported, but noted: “I’m not sharing that piece about Kate in any way to be disparaging to her. “I think it’s really important for people to understand the truth.” She added that she hoped the Duchess of Cambridge “would have wanted that corrected” as well, saying Kate is a “good person” and had apologised to her at the time. But when pressed by Oprah about the many friendly photographs of the two women at royal engagements — which made the public think they were on good terms — Meghan said: “My experience of the past four years is nothing like what it looks like.” However, the co-author of the famously explosive biography about the Sussexes’ departure, Finding Freedom, claimed the two women were close just months after Archie’s birth in 2019. Carolyn Durand told Hello! Magazine: “Kate was a great source of support to Meghan in the days leading up to Archie’s birth and despite reports of a rift, they are family and have a really lovely friendship. “Their relationship has constantly evolved over time and they have become closer since Meghan’s wedding. “They talk and text regularly, they have more in common and Kate has wanted to make sure Meghan has felt welcomed to the family.” Another source also told US magazine People: “There is a sense of their relationship strengthening. “They’re each a little more relaxed. They have more in common now.”

When you marry a prince from one of the most powerful monarchies in the world, it's a little difficult to hide from the spotlight. Then, when you tell the world about how you've been coping inside the rigid Royal Family, you're going to fan the flames of public opinion. ET Canada is breaking down how watchers across the world responded to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's tell-all interview with Oprah, brought to you by Pantene. In April 2019, the Royal Family attended a special Easter Sunday service at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle. Prince Harry attended the church service alone, as his wife Meghan Markle was heavily pregnant with son Archie at the time. Instead, the Duke spent time with other family members, and a body language expert has pointed out tensions clearly existed between Harry and his older brother Prince William. Photos from the event showed Harry walking behind his brother and sister-in-law Kate, as the pair appeared to avoid talking to each other at the start. Harry and William later reunited and stood side-by-side as they greeted the vicar, but body language expert Judi James said the encounter was rather frosty. She told the Mirror: "The body language between the two princes here doesn’t just add to the speculation that pair are no longer on speaking terms, it seems to suggest than any rift might have got even wider. "When he was single Harry was always forming a tight and happy trio with William and Kate but here it looks sadly as though he is going out of his way to have a lack of communication with his brother. "Not only does he arrive and leave walking apart from William and Kate, his antics when William closes in by the church entrance make him look awkward and hints that he could be desperate to avoid him. "His facial expression looks dour and he seems to raise one hand to touch his face in what looks like a partial cut-off gesture suggesting a desire to hide."

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle clashed with palace advisers a year before leaving their royal duties, contradicting a recent bombshell interview that they had no plan in place in the lead up to Megxit. “There was a constant dialogue from the couple along the lines of: ‘Why can’t we do this? You can’t stop us from doing what we want to do’,'” sources told The Telegraph Saturday. At the beginning of 2019, the couple was already planning their exit from royal duties, finalizing a deal to produce content for Quibi, a now-defunct video streaming service that was poised to rival YouTube, The Post first reported last year. Prince Harry announced their intention to step down from royal duties in an Instagram post on January 8, 2020. “They were calling the shots and would be the ones instructing the press office on what line to put out,” the Telegraph reported. The report contradicts the couple’s comments in a bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey earlier this month that they “didn’t have a plan” when they left the royal family. “The Netflix and the Spotify [deals]… that was never part of the plan,” Prince Harry told Winfrey. “We didn’t have a plan. That was suggested by somebody else by the point of where my family literally cut me off financially, and I had to afford… security for us.”

Sounds like the Middletons are starting to speak publicly about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Oprah interview. And by that I mean Kate's uncle, Gary Goldsmith, has spoken out about Meghan saying Kate Middleton made her cry during a bridesmaid fitting. "I’ve known Kate since she was born and she doesn’t have a mean bone in her body. It’s just simply not in her nature," Gary told The Mail on Sunday (via The Sun). "She’s even lovelier on the inside than on the outside. If anyone had a hissy fit, it must have been Meghan." But wait, he's not done! "Kate would have been trying to make the peace," he continued. "I would fight for Kate’s honor until the day I die. She is the most spectacular person I’ve ever met." Seems worth pointing out that this man wasn't in the room during Meghan and Kate's tense moment over bridesmaids dresses, and therefore he can't confirm anything. Meghan, however, was in the room, and she gave her account of the incident to Oprah: "A few days before the wedding, [Kate] was upset about something—yes, the issue was correct, about the flower girl dresses—and it made me cry and it really hurt my feelings, and I thought in the context of everything else that was going on in those days leading to the wedding, it didn’t make sense to not be just doing whatever everyone else is doing, which was trying to be supportive knowing what was going on with my dad and whatnot.” Meanwhile, Kate hasn't spoken out about the incident publicly — but royal reporter Katie Nicholl told OK! magazine that Kate felt it "was all sorted, so to have it brought up again was mortifying.” Nicholl also said, “From what I hear, there are different versions of the bridesmaid story, not just the one Meghan discussed” and that Kate is “not in a position to respond” to Meghan’s claim.

The real cause behind Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton’s rift has finally been unearthed by experts.
Sources got candid over it with Hello! magazine and were quoted saying, “Kate was a great source of support to Meghan in the days leading up to Archie’s birth and, despite reports of a rift, they are family and have a really lovely friendship." But it all changed shortly after Prince William and Prince Harry's feud took a colder turn.
Touching upon the couple's last few days within the Firm Finding Freedom author Omid Scobie stepped forward and admitted, “Though it was not necessarily her responsibility, Kate did little to bridge the divide” and during Meghan’s last royal engagement, “the Duchess barely acknowledged her although Meghan tried to make eye contact” with her.
