Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey in March 2021 continues to reverberate within the British Royal Family. The couple detailed their reasons for leaving the UK, alleging instances of racism and insensitivity within the Firm. Meghan claimed Kate Middleton made her cry before her wedding, adding fuel to the already strained relations.
Buckingham Palace responded with a statement expressing sadness but also noting that "recollections may vary." This phrase, reportedly supported by Kate Middleton, signaled a united front between her and Prince William against the Sussexes. Royal experts suggest that despite the rift, Prince Harry will likely attend future events marking Prince William's ascension to the throne, emphasizing the enduring familial ties despite the ongoing tensions.
