It may seem like Meghan Markle exudes confidence having been familiar with the spotlight prior to meeting Prince Harry – but according to royal experts, being in the presence of Kate Middleton reportedly makes her feel very uncomfortable.
The Last Queen author and Daily Beast columnist Clive Irving reportedly believes that it is highly “unlikely” that we will ever see Meghan “in the same frame as [Prince] William and Kate” ever again – a bold prediction – because the 42-year-old former Suits actress allegedly feels uncomfortable around both of them. Therefore, if Prince Harry and his older brother Prince William *do* finally put an end to their years-long feud, things still won’t be like they were in the fab four/pre Megxit days.
Why Meghan Markle Reportedly Doesn’t Feel Comfortable Around The Prince And Princess Of Wales
Irving told the Express US: "I don’t think [Meghan] is comfortable with them because they’re not comfortable with her." Prince Harry wrote in his bombshell memoir Spare that the Princess of Wales "grimaced" when Meghan asked to borrow her lipgloss before they went on stage at the Royal Foundation Forum in 2018, so this isn’t too surprising to learn!
He then went on to suggest that Prince Harry, who turned 39 last month, is the one the public will most likely want to see, not Meghan, adding: "I think it's basically Harry's appearances that will matter now, not her." He also said the Sussexes may not even want to try patching things up with the Prince and Princess of Wales and restore peace within the royal family, as they have become "celebrities in their own right" and don’t need their royal family connections.
"Harry and Meghan's celebrity used to rest on the former's connection to the royal family, but they've now been celebrities in their own right for so long that they don't need to trade on that anymore. That's no longer part of their lives," he said, adding that Meghan no longer wants to attend any royal engagements because she doesn’t want to be "accused of embarrassing" King Charles or "being a burden on the monarchy."
