Princess Kate ‘never bought into Meghan Markle’ as royal split between sisters-in-law emerged
Princess Kate never bought into Meghan Markle’s view of the Royal Family, a source has claimed.
The sisters-in-law had different perspectives on working with royal staff and what their roles within the monarchy would look like according to a new report.
Royal insiders told The Times that Kate’s approach of “bidding her time” did not align with Meghan Markle’s more direct approach.
One source told the publication that Meghan thought Kate was “just too eager to please, too much a goody-two-shoes girl
Another royal insider told the Times: “Kate is someone who slowly and carefully absorbs the atmosphere of a place, the relationship between people and the rules.
“She doesn’t jump in straight away and try to change everything to suit her way of thinking.
“She bides her time and is very intelligent and intuitive about other people, what they do and how they behave.
“She was also coached — not just by William, who wanted Kate to avoid the problems his mother had encountered, but also by the staff.
The source added: “Kate was always happy to accept advice both from the lower staff, with whom she got on very well, and from the courtiers, even though some of them were initially very snooty about her.
“It was the same kind of backbiting gossipy criticism that Meghan had to put up with, but Kate is actually a much stronger person than Meghan in many ways.
“Yet what Meghan saw as Kate being pushed around, Kate saw as an essential part of being a member of the Royal Family.
“Kate’s view of Meghan was always implied rather than spoken, I think.
