Expert Says Meghan Is Conflicted Over Kate’s Royal Palace Drama

Royal expert Christopher Andersen suspects that Meghan Markle may be conflicted about how the palace has handled the latest drama involving Kate Middleton. Andersen believes that Meghan may be battling with having an 'I told you so' moment while also feeling sympathy for her sister-in-law. According to Andersen, the palace continues to mishandle the situation daily, which has prompted criticism of Kate and the royals. The author of 'The Life of King Charles III' further explained that Meghan must be sympathetic towards Kate's stress as she copes with a severe medical issue. The palace media machine has never been more exposed for what it is: a complete mess and a total disaster. The Duchess of Sussex, who is 42 years old, has openly criticized the royal institution and her husband, Prince Harry, for their handling of her health issues in the past. This is all the more reason why she can likely relate to Middleton, who is also 42. In March 2021, Markle revealed to Oprah Winfrey that she had been struggling with suicidal thoughts while working as a senior member of the royal family due to the pressures of that lifestyle. However, the 'Suits' alum claimed that she was allegedly rebuffed when she sought help from someone in the institution. Meghan and Harry understand the experience of waking up to tabloid headlines targeting them for various reasons. On the other hand, the royal family has been criticized for not saying enough about Kate's medical crisis. The royal expert stated that the excessive secrecy surrounding Middleton has contributed to the public's distrust of the monarchy and the royal family. Kensington Palace announced in January that the Princess of Wales underwent planned abdominal surgery and would not be able to resume her royal duties until after Easter. During her recovery, Middleton has rarely appeared in public. There have only been two paparazzi sightings, but the validity of the images is uncertain. On UK Mother's Day, the princess shared a photo of herself posing with her children - Prince George (10), Princess Charlotte (8), and Prince Louis (5). However, it was later revealed that the photo had been heavily edited. Last week, Middleton apologized through X, stating that she occasionally experiments with editing, like many amateur photographers. She apologized for any confusion caused by the family photograph shared the day before. However, some people did not believe that Middleton was responsible for releasing the suspicious picture, and it has been reported that the decision was collective. The palace has not released the original image, which has fueled conspiracy theories about Middleton's whereabouts. According to an insider who spoke to Us Weekly, Kate has had a difficult month as a royal and hopes the commotion will end soon. Markle and Middleton have had issues in the past, dating back to an alleged tearful breakdown over Princess Charlotte's dress at the former's 2018 nuptials. However, it has been reported that Markle and Harry sent Prince William's wife 'get well messages.' Andersen pointed out how Markle and Middleton can relate to each other more than ever. According to the author of 'The Day Diana Died,' Markle shares Princess Diana's distrust of the power brokers within the monarchy. The press office's ineptitude and palace intrigue seem to be causing even Kate, who has always handled pressure with effortless grace, to fall victim.
