Is this why they had so little connection to each other? Both Princess Kate (41) and Duchess Meghan (42) have married into the British royal family. They have officially been sisters-in-law since 2018. But it quickly became clear that the two were not entirely happy with each other: Especially after the royal exit of Prince Harry (39) and his wife, there were repeated rumors that the two women couldn’t stand each other. But where does Kate and Meghan’s mutual dislike come from?
For former BBC Royal correspondent Jennie Bond, the reasons are obvious, as she told OK! reported. The Duchess of Sussex was a “confident, independent, outspoken feminist with her own career” when she was accepted into the royal family. Therefore, she is said to have found it particularly difficult to approve the ranking: “I suspect that Meghan found it difficult to accept Kate’s senior position with all the protocol that entails.” In addition, the two women are simply too different in general: “I think that Kate and Meghan have different cultures and life experiences colliding.”
An insider recently told The Telegraph that the former Suits actress had problems with the ranking. The former actress “felt uncomfortable playing second fiddle,” as the tipster explains. She is said to have hoped to have more rights regarding certain statements.
