Prince Harry, 38, dropped many, many bombshells when he released his memoir Spare back in January this year – i.e., the fastest-selling non-fiction book of all time – and a few of them were related to his sister-in-law Kate Middleton.
Prince Harry actually had quite a few negative things to say about the Princess of Wales, 41 – who he once described as the “sister I’ve never had and always wanted” – throughout his memoir, one of which being how she notably “grimaced” when Meghan Markle, 42, borrowed her lip gloss before they went on stage at the Royal Foundation Forum in 2018.
TikTok Video Of Prince Harry Describing The Infamous Lip Gloss Incident Goes Viral
A TikTok user called @royalfamilyvideos_ uploaded a now-viral video to the platform on July 1st (check it out here) showing various pictures of the Princess of Wales and the Duchess of Sussex alongside an audio clip of Prince Harry recalling that infamous lip gloss moment.
“Meg asked to borrow Kate’s lip gloss. An American thing. Meg forgot hers, worried she needed some, and turned to Kate for help,” Prince Harry recalled in his memoir, which he can be heard reading in the now-viral TikTok video. “Kate, taken aback, went into her handbag and reluctantly pulled out a small tube,” Harry added in his memoir, to try and set the scene to describe the start of the ongoing feud between himself, Meghan, Kate, and his brother Prince William.
He continued: “Meg squeezed some onto her finger and applied it to her lips. Kate grimaced. Small clash of styles, maybe? Something we should’ve been able to laugh about soon after. But it left a little mark. And then the press sensed something was up and tried to turn it into something bigger. Here we go, I thought sorrowfully.”
Fans Defend Kate Middleton In The Comments
The Princess of Wales’ fans were quick to defend her in the comments section of the TikTok video, with many suggesting that they too wouldn’t be happy to lend someone such a personal product. “I only ever share lip gloss with my absolute bestest friend of over 30 years. Cheek of her!” exclaimed one TikTok user, as another concurred, “My daughter and I don’t even share lip products.”
“I don’t share my lip gloss with anyone that’s gross,” commented another user. “I don’t share any lip stuff,” another user agreed, while someone else slammed Meghan for even asking, writing, “Why even ask to borrow anything that goes on someone else’s lips?” Another user added: “You wouldn’t ask to share another woman’s lipgloss or lipstick. It’s just not the done thing.” “Meghan has no boundaries,” said another user, to which someone else replied with a simple crying laughing emoji.
