OMG | Amid Meghan Markle’s ‘horrifying’ scandal, everyone laughed out loud because what Meghan is suffering is a ‘self-slap’ for what she imposed on Princess Kate
Posted on June 18, 2024
Meghan Markle seems to be trying to mend her broken relationship with Princess Kate, with one royal expert claiming she has “reached out several times”.
The Princess of Wales has been caught up in a Photoshop scandal after fans spotted “errors” with a sweet family snap she released on Mother’s Day. Kate smiled alongside her three children in the picture, but fans were convinced it had been altered and rushed to social media to share their theories.
Princess Kate then admitted to editing the snap and apologised for causing any “confusion”. Now, royal author Tom Quinn has said Meghan is using the chaos as her chance to reach out to Kate.

He told The Mirror: “Meghan has reached out several times via back channels to Kensington Palace in an attempt to see if there is any chance of getting on better terms with Kate. This is definitely partly because Meghan is genuinely worried about Kate’s health, but she also sees a chance to lose her permanently angry-at-the-royals image.”
However, it’s unclear whether Meghan’s attempts at a reunion will pay off. Tom explained: “Kate won’t want to be seen to rebuff these overtures, but she will be taking advice and the advice so far, I hear, is definitely – don’t take the risk.
“The feeling in Kensington Palace is that if Meghan’s attempts to extend an olive branch are welcomed, it will just re-open old wounds.” His comments come after another expert urged Meghan to speak out in defence of her sister-in-law.

PR expert Ryan McCormick told The Mirror: “Meghan and Harry now have a golden opportunity to not only accelerate healing their rift with the Royal Family but, to restore some of their likeability in the eyes of the public. If I was advising Meghan, I would tell her to speak loud and passionate in defence of Kate.
“Meghan may not like being on the brunt of negative press but, she’s definitely more familiar with it than Kate. The Duchess could help the Princess of Wales tremendously by guiding her through this crisis publicly and behind the scenes.”
Meghan and Kate seemed to develop a close friendship when the former Suits star joined the Royal Family, but it didn’t take long for rumours of a rift to circulate and the two women have now been estranged for years. However, Meghan has spoken passionately against online bullying, meaning she could become an ally for Kate.
She recently appeared at the SXSW festival as she opened up about how social media can be a “dangerous” place. She told the audience: “You just think about that and really wrap your head around why people would be so hateful. It’s not catty, it’s cruel.”
