The Princess of Wales would “rise above the barbs” that Meghan Markle has launched in her direction, a royal expert has claimed. Princess Catherine and her sister-in-law’s relationship has long been the subject of discussion between royal watchers following the bombshell Megxit in 2020.
Catherine and Meghan appear to get along just fine during the early days of the Sussexes’ courtship; however, cracks began to show following their marriage in 2018. The two couples have not been estranged for six years, with the Sussex camp making various claims against their in-laws. The Prince and Princess of Wales have not commented on any of the claims. Now, following Prince Harry’s trip back to the UK earlier this month, and his private meeting with the King, royal watchers have weighed in on whether he would ever end up mending his rift with his estranged brother, Prince William.

Royal commentator Jennie Bond claimed that the rift is “really between” William and Harry and that if they ever were to reconcile at any point in the future, their wives would support them.
She told New magazine: “The battle is really between the brothers. I’m sure if William and Harry ever come to a point when they want to settle their differences, their wives will support them and follow their lead.
“I don’t think the princess and duchess would ever be particularly close, but I think Catherine would simply rise above the barbs that Meghan has launched in her direction.”
She added: “I suspect that Catherine is more of a natural peacemaker. I would never say never about a reconciliation of sorts between William, Catherine, Harry and Meghan – however, there is certainly no sign of it on the horizon.”
The Duchess of Sussex previously claimed that Catherine made her cry over the infamous bridesmaids row incident, right before the Sussexes’ wedding on May 19, 2018, which involved the silk dresses worn by the young bridesmaids, including Princess Charlotte.
Whilst it was initially reported that Meghan made Kate cry over Charlotte’s dress needing alterations because it didn’t fit properly, Meghan alleged during her 2021 Oprah Winfrey interview that it was the other way around, and it was she who had been left upset.
Later, Harry touched down on the incident in his memoir Spare, saying that his wife was left “on the floor sobbing” after the argument between the two sisters-in-law.
Catherine has never commented on the claims, but a statement released by Buckingham Palace after the Oprah interview did indicate that “recollections may vary”.
