The Duchess of Cambridge has been at the centre of feud rumours with her sister-in-law Meghan Markle for years – but one royal expert believes she has found a way to fight back
Princess Kate, who will be 41 next month, has been rumoured to be in a feud with Meghan Markle for years.
The two have reportedly had disagreements over various issues, including whether Princess Charlotte should wear tights to Harry and Meghan’s wedding.
In his book ‘Finding Freedom’, Omid Scobie criticised Kate for not fostering a “meaningful” relationship with Meghan.
He claimed that the two Duchesses never moved beyond a polite friendship, and that Kate didn’t do much to make Meghan feel welcome. According to him, the Sussexes felt that Kate didn’t help “bridge the divide” between the brothers as their relationship deteriorated, due to her fierce loyalty to her husband and the Royal Family.
In his book Spare, Prince Harry shares that his wife Meghan and his sister-in-law Kate had a few disagreements in the early days of his relationship with Meghan. He mentions an argument over bridesmaid dresses before his wedding that left Meghan upset, and how Kate “grimaced” when Meghan borrowed her lipgloss.

Meghan also spoke about Kate during her and Harry’s Netflix series. She remembered their first meeting and said she was “surprised” by the formality of the Royal family. In the second episode of the six-part series, she shared: “When Will and Kate came over, and I met her for the first time, they came over for dinner, I remember I was in ripped jeans and I was barefoot. I was a hugger. I’ve always been a hugger, I didn’t realise that that is really jarring for a lot of Brits.”
“I guess I started to understand very quickly that the formality on the outside carried through on the inside. There is a forward-facing way of being, and then you close the door and go ‘You can relax now’, but that formality carries over on both sides. And that was surprising to me.”
While Kate has never publicly responded to any of these claims or reports, Royal expert Duncan Larcombe thinks she’s “silently” standing her ground. Speaking to Best magazine, he suggested that she’s responding by ‘keeping calm and carrying on’ – and always looking flawless.
He said: “She sends secret messages to the Sussexes through her outfits. Kate continues to look fantastic and very regal. She knows what she’s doing. She’s fighting back in her own way. The more intact she appears, the more the public seem to side with her.”

“The best way that Kate can get back at Harry and Meghan is by doing what she’s doing. And by following the mantra of ‘keeping calm and carrying on’, she’s doing what many members of the Royal family have done historically.”
“And it’s working. The more that the Sussexes have criticised her and the less she’s reacted to it, the more the public have warmed to her. We’ve seen that in the opinion polls – Kate’s at an all-time high when it comes to her popularity.”
Last Christmas, shortly after Meghan claimed that she had been banned from wearing bright colours by the ‘establishment’, Kate and several other high-profile female members of the Royal family arrived for her annual Christmas carol service wearing a striking shade of maroon.
It was believed that this was a combined effort to undermine their estranged relative’s comments.
