ST6. Meghan Markle ‘frustrated’ with new picture of Prince William

Prince William and Kate Middleton’s lives are slowly returning to normal. The Princess of Wales revealed a while ago that she had ended her cancer treatment, but she still hasn’t fully recovered. Even so, it appears that the royal couple aren’t letting that stop them, with reports detailing that they’re now aiming to branch out into the US “market.”

According to sources, William and Kate taking the first steps to possibly doing some royal work in the US has left Meghan Markle frustrated. It’s worth remembering that the relationship between Prince Harry, Meghan and the Royal Family isn’t improving, and something William did just days ago is believed to have worsened things.

The Prince of Wales visited RAF Northolt to celebrate London Air Ambulance’s ‘Up Against Time’ campaign. But whilst there, he met one particular person who was previously quite close to Harry and Meghan. Cue rumors that the feud that started with the so-called ‘Megxit’ is being taken to a new level…

Prince William and Kate Middleton aren’t exactly the best of friends with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle anymore. Rather, the relationship is reportedly at rock bottom following the many vocal attacks made by the Sussexes in recent years.

Prince Harry & Meghan Markle – royal feud

Harry has returned to the UK a few times in the last year, but aside from his secret visit to his father following Charles’s cancer diagnosis, the Duke hasn’t met with his family. Moreover, it’s been reported that he hasn’t spoken to his brother, Prince William, for years, and the only contact Meghan has had with Kate is short calls after the latter underwent abdominal surgery in January and was subsequently diagnosed with cancer herself.

Several reports have suggested that Harry may now want a truce and possibly even misses his old life in the UK. Whether this could mark the beginning of the end as regards the feud with his family is yet to be seen, but according to royal experts, William isn’t on board with making peace.

“I still think things are too sensitive for a meaningful reconciliation with William, but the fact that he and Catherine authorised the greeting to be posted is definitely an unexpected turn of events,” royal expert Jennie Bond told OK!, referring to the Prince and Princess of Wales’ happy birthday post to Harry, per the Mirror.

“I don’t think we should hold our breath for the step to really signal the start of a reconciliation, but it was an unexpected turn of events.”

She added: “William has so much on his plate at the moment that I don’t think he has room in his heart or head to deal with all that has gone on with Harry. While the brothers may never be close again, or even live on the same continent, it doesn’t mean that the future has to be full of bitterness and bad blood. Catherine is right. Family should always be paramount.”

Meghan Markle’s two demands to reunite with the royal family

When it comes to reuniting with the royals, Meghan isn’t exactly the driving force behind any potential negotiations.

According to royal expert Tom Quinn, Meghan has two demands if the situation is to be resolved peacefully, and will only back down when “she feels that the Royal Family have been sufficiently nice to her, and grovelingly apologized for the past”.

Of course, the idea that the royals will meet those demands is highly unlikely.

Speaking to the Mirror, Quinn stated that the Prince and Princess of Wales are willing to bury the hatched with Harry and Meghan, but Meghan won’t entertain talk of a peaceful sit-down before her demands are fulfilled.

“Harry would like a reconciliation, but supports his wife completely and until she feels that the Royal family have been sufficiently nice to her – and grovelingly apologized for the past – it’s not going to happen,” Quinn said, adding that Meghan may be holding Harry back from any peace talks.

The Duchess’ “sense of grievance” is “preventing anything really meaningful happening,” he claimed. Meghan – and Harry – have made it clear that they won’t bring their children to the UK due to a perceived lack of protection, and that’s something that makes any possible reunion even more complicated.

“‘We don’t need your permission to be working royals’”

Not only that, but Harry and Meghan are said to have made certain British royals furious when they embarked on a trip to Nigeria earlier this year.

The couple were given a “royal welcome,” and according to reports, King Charles and the other senior royals felt that the couple couldn’t be controlled and, most importantly, that they should no longer be connected to the monarchy at all.

“For Charles and William, it’s as if Meghan and Harry are saying, ‘We don’t need your permission to be working royals – we will do it on our own terms whenever and wherever we like,’” Tom Quinn told the Mirror.

Harry and Meghan embarked on another trip in August, this time to Colombia, which certainly didn’t make the royals any happier. Now, though, perhaps William and Middleton have found the Sussexes’ Achilles heal.

It’s been widely speculated that Harry and Meghan want to be part of the celebrity life in Hollywood. However, reports have stated that the stars of Hollywood don’t want anything to do with them, and in the last few years, they have even lost friends who used to be close to them.

Two of those are David and Victoria Beckham. When Meghan decided to move to the UK – when her and Harry’s relationship turned serious – Victoria reportedly gave Meghan all the access she needed to hairdressers and stylists in London.

However, the happy friends of four didn’t last. The news that Victoria offered to help the then-Suits star made its way to the news, and Meghan reportedly suspected that it was Victoria who had leaked it. That’s said to have led to a very uncomfortable phone call between Prince Harry and David Beckham, which was the beginning of their friendship’s decline.

“Harry was very polite, but obviously it was a pretty awkward exchange and David was mortified. Inexplicably, [Meghan] feared Victoria was behind it – I mean, the idea that Victoria Beckham would be personally ringing journalists to give them a scoop is ridiculous – and spoke to Harry about it,” a source told The Sun.

“Harry is very protective of Meghan, and decided to deal with the matter head-on, by directly contacting his good pal, David. He quickly put Harry right, and the two men agreed to move on – but it certainly made things awkward for a while.”

When Harry and Meghan married in 2018, David and Victoria Beckham attended their wedding. The famous couple, however, weren’t invited to the wedding dinner, which reportedly surprised the Beckhams.

Not long after, while Harry and Meghan were touring Australia, the Duke asked David to become an Invictus Games ambassador, and the former soccer player also traveled to Australia.

However, while there, Prince Harry reportedly refused to see David in Sydney, with claims being made that he wanted to keep his friends at arm’s length.

The reason? Meghan Markle, who still feared that Victoria had leaked stories about her to the press.

“She wanted no competition in the media from David. It seemed she was not prepared to tolerate anything flattering regarding the Beckhams and the Games to appear in the media,” royal biographer Tom Bower wrote in his book Revenge.

The Sussexes and The Beckham’s relationship deteriorated further, and when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle moved to the US things got even worse. With Harry lashing out at family members in both interviews and his book, Spare, the distance between he and David grew by the day-

David and Victoria Beckham have always supported the Royal Family. According to royal expert Richard Eden, that was the reason they dropped their relationship with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

“David had always been an ardent royalist who would stand up for the Queen’s Speech every Christmas, dressed in his Sunday best. Years later, he queued for 12 hours to view the Queen’s coffin when her body was lying in state,” Eden wrote in the Daily Mail.

“So it is, perhaps, no surprise that the Sussexes’ attacks on the Royal Family failed to impress the Beckhams.”

Richard Eden added: “Both David and Victoria put great importance on family and would never, ever turn on their relations the way that Harry and Meghan did,’ one of their associates tells me. The truth is that Victoria never really liked Meghan much. She was friendly and welcoming to her but is not bothered about staying in touch.”

Meghan Markle ‘annoyed’ over David Beckham’s meeting with Prince William

So what brings David and Victoria Beckham into Prince Harry’s feud with his brother? Well, William spent time with David just days ago, with the pair meeting at RAF Northolt to celebrate London Air Ambulance’s Up Against Time campaign.

Harry attended the WellChild Awards in the UK shortly before, but according to royal expert Kinsey Schofield, Meghan is annoyed by the David Beckham situation, and the fact that he spent time with Prince William.

“Yes, I do think that this is something that will annoy Meghan Markle,” Schofield said, per the Mirror.

“After two weeks of bad press since Prince Harry’s been gone. I just think that she’s probably livid right now, based on the reaction that she’s getting from all of these stories. She’s had to deal with that while Prince Harry’s been out of town.”

The royal expert added: “That’s gotta be incredibly hard for her. And then to see this kind of victory moment from Prince William. A victory moment that she would tell you it should have been Harry’s moment after the WellChild awards, that would be upsetting to her.”
