Royal fans have always loved and adored Kate Middleton. Even those who are not avid followers of the British Royals seemingly applaud her for her dedication to her work. This is why it is not surprising that she is one of today’s most popular royals.
As the future Queen Consort of the United Kingdom, almost all eyes are on her. By the time Meghan Markle arrived at the scene, several individuals had appeared to have expected that the two women would become close to each other.
This did not seemingly happen, though, with many sources claiming that the two Duchesses only have a working relationship. Royal experts even recently stated that the Duchess of Cambridge became a “collateral damage,” according to the Daily Express.
Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle are two different women
In a Channel 5 documentary titled, When The Middleton Met The Monarchy, several royal experts shared their thoughts about Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle. This comes after asserting that the two women are “very different” from each other.
As explained, the public expected them to establish a tight bond as they were both outsiders. Richard Kay noted, however, that the two Duchesses “did not get along.”
The expert continued that the ties between them were not “as straightforward as” what everyone thought. He, then, claimed that the future Queen Consort even became a “collateral damage” in the entire debacle.
Their relationship never progressed
For years, royal fans and followers continued to speculate how things were between Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle. While many reports alleged that they were feuding, others had different takes on the matter.
Months after the Sussexes’ exit from the British Monarchy, royal commentators Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand released a bombshell book, Finding Freedom, centering on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. In one part of the material, they discussed the former actress’s relationship with Prince William’s wife.
As claimed, the Duchesses’ relationship “never progressed” that much. The reason being is that the Duchess of Cambridge reportedly felt that “they did not have much in common.”
Sources insisted, however, that they were not actually feuding. It is just that they were only “cordial colleagues,” according to Elle.
Amid all the drama and allegations, though, Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle never break their silence. Hence, it remains unclear whether all the speculations are, indeed, factual or close to reality.
