Recent revelations suggest that Meghan Markle‘s presence at the Royal Palace has been a source of unease for Prince William.
An article published by the London Times on February 6 sheds light on the dynamics between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the Prince and Princess of Wales, drawing insights from several palace insiders.
In the early days of Meghan and Prince Harry‘s marriage, the two couples were often celebrated as the “Fab Four.” They seemed to present a united front, appearing collaborative and harmonious in their public engagements.
However, as time went on, underlying tensions began to emerge, particularly stemming from Meghan’s warm and sociable demeanor.
Meghan’s friendly nature, characterized by hugs and cheek kisses, reportedly caused discomfort for both Prince William and King Charles.
This affectionate approach was not always well-received within the royal circle.
Tom Quinn, a British journalist, noted that Meghan’s physical gestures sometimes made William visibly flinch, creating an atmosphere of awkwardness in the palace.
Rumors circulated among palace staff suggesting that Meghan’s behavior could be interpreted as flirtatious.
However, these claims were quickly dismissed.
Quinn emphasized that while some viewed Meghan’s actions as overly familiar, she had no intentions of flirting with William.
Still, the frequent physical interactions seemed to exacerbate the growing tension between the two brothers and their families.
Prince William, in particular, found Meghan’s habit of hugging him whenever they encountered each other to be unsettling.
Unlike Meghan, who embraced a more tactile approach, William preferred to maintain a certain level of reserve when it came to physical displays of affection.
This difference in their comfort levels only added to the strain in their relationship.
