Pippa Middleton tipped for ‘role in reconciliation’ between the Sussexes and Princess Kate

Pippa Middleton has been tipped for a “role in the reconciliation” between the Sussexes and Princess Kate by inside sources.

Before Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped back as working royals, the couple shared a friendly relationship with the Princess of Wales’s younger sister, Pippa.

In 2011, Harry and Pippa were the best man and maid of honour at the Prince and Princess of Wales’s wedding in Westminster Abbey.

Pippa, 40, later invited Meghan to her wedding reception in 2017, when the Duchess of Sussex was just Prince Harry’s girlfriend.

Meghan, 42, returned the favour a year later when Pippa attended her wedding at St George’s Chapel while pregnant with her first child, Arthur.
In 2019, the two women happily stepped out at Wimbledon alongside Princess Kate.
A royal insider claimed that Meghan could consider sparking a friendship with Pippa again, despite living in the US.

They said: “Things cooled off between Meghan and Pippa when everything went awry with the Sussexes and William and Kate, but – as far as their personal relationship goes – there was never any issue.

Now that Meghan is looking for ways to make peace with Kate, she’s hit on this idea that Pippa could be a good pathway.
“Pippa’s always been very reasonable and level-headed towards Meghan, so it’s not totally out of left field.”

They added: “Pippa is someone who she and Harry both get along well with, and they know she’s got a lot of sway with Kate, so the plan now is to approach her and explain how sincere they are in their hopes of patching up things.”

When the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped back as working royals, a rift grew between Harry, Meghan, Kate and Prince William.

According to the insider, Prince Harry would also like to renew his friendship with Pippa Middleton and her husband, James Matthews.

The source continued to tell Heat World: “He would like to work on a friendship with Pippa and her husband James, perhaps meet up with them on neutral ground in Europe or the States, then see if they can get some synergy going.

“Scoring any type of friendship with Pippa would be a huge win, even if it does seem like a long shot given how unpopular they are in royal circles right now.
