Duchess Meghan traveled back to London on the occasion of the Queen’s 70th jubilee. According to royal expert Neil Sean, Meghan harbored vague hopes that her return would reunite the family.
After more than two years, Duchess Meghan, 40, met the members of the British royal family personally on the first weekend in June. A reunion described by insiders as “very strange”. The wife of Prince Harry, 37, is said to have intended the opposite. Royal expert Neil Sean reports that Meghan was hoping for a reconciliation – especially with Duchess Catherine, 40.
Duchess Meghan relied on similarities with Kate
The Duchess is said to have pinned all her hopes on her daughter Lilibet Diana’s first birthday. The Royals celebrated this on June 4, 2022 in a small circle at Frogmore Cottage. “Meghan Markle was really hoping to reconcile with Kate by using the kids,” said Neil Sean. Children are known to break the ice. In addition, Prince Louis, 4, and Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, 3, are only a year apart. According to the expert, Meghan believed celebrating Lilibet’s birthday would bring the family closer together.
The Royal commentator’s verdict: “One way or another, it just wasn’t meant to be.” A joint family celebration is apparently not enough to heal the deep wounds. The relationship between Prince Harry and Prince William, 39, is said to have hit rock bottom. This also moves a reconciliation between Meghan and Kate into the unattainable distance.
Royal expert: “Meghan was rather reserved and shy”
Palace employees also report that the former actress is said to have seemed “rather reserved and shy” during her visit to England. “She wasn’t really interacting with people and didn’t seem to want to get into a fight with them,” explains Neil Sean. A silent peace offer after Meghan was so talkative in interviews? It would be possible. According to the expert and insider, it still didn’t work.
