The beginning of 2024 has been particularly challenging for the British royal family. Charles III revealed that he was suffering from cancer after a prostate operation. A few weeks later, Kate Middleton also announced she was ill, thus upsetting relations within the Windsors. Prince Harry did not hesitate to visit his father’s bedside, while Meghan Markle sent a message of support to her sister-in-law.
According to reliable sources, the Duchess of Sussex made a point of encouraging Kate Middleton during her public return on June 15 for Trooping the Colour. Meghan wishes to end the feud and appear as a royal savior with the — calculated? — aim of improving her image. Despite the many past conflicts between the two women, Meghan desires to get closer to Kate. She has expressed her wish to let go of anger and bitterness for the good of all.
However, is this reconciliation really possible? While Meghan’s approach is meant to be honorable, is Kate Middleton ready to turn the page on the past? "It’s not really up to them alone to decide, but everything they gain will come from helping each other," explains the source.
The tensions between Kate Middleton, a figure of the Windsor clan, and the Sussexes also involve serious accusations of racism towards little Archie…. A potential reconciliation seems difficult. The coming months will reveal if the hatchet can be buried and if a new era of peace can begin within the media-centric British royal family.
