The relationship between the Duchess of Sussex and the Princess of Wales has been strained for years, with the tension reaching its peak during the Sussexes’ explosive Netflix docuseries and Prince Harry’s controversial memoir Spare. Meghan Markle, who is reportedly planning to “set the record straight” with her own memoir, once claimed during her Oprah Winfrey interview that it was Kate Middleton who made her cry just days before her wedding to Harry—contradicting earlier reports that suggested otherwise. Meghan admitted to being “hurt” by Kate’s actions after an argument over bridesmaid dresses, which left her “crying on the floor,” as described by Harry in his book Spare. Kate allegedly said there was a “problem” with her daughter Princess Charlotte’s dress, insisting that all the bridesmaid dresses needed to be “completely remade.”

Despite these past tensions, it seems Meghan may be ready to let go of the animosity, as reports suggest she has reached out to both Kate and King Charles following Kate’s recent health scare. “Meghan has contacted Kate and Charles,” a source told US Weekly, hinting at a potential reconciliation. Another insider shared that Meghan is fully supportive of Harry in this process: “Meghan is supportive of Harry in all of this, and she wishes the royals — Kate included — the very best.”

Princess Kate is reportedly “open” to the idea of reconciliation and “willing to move forward,” though she “won’t meddle” in the ongoing issues between her husband, Prince William, and his younger brother, Harry. “They can use this as a starting point,” the source added. “The consensus is that life is too short, and there’s hope this will lead to repairing the rift.”

Though Meghan did not join Harry on his recent visit to the UK to see King Charles, sources say she was in full support of his trip. “Meghan was in total agreement that Harry had to be there,” another insider revealed. “He got to tell his father how much he loves him and get a fuller account of what Charles is facing.”

With this newfound communication, many are hopeful this could be the beginning of healing the royal family’s long-standing rift.
