Royal news about Meghan: that's how she thinks about Kate + William

What may be going on in Duchess Meghan, 38? A question that observers may have asked when Meghan met Prince Harry, 35, on March 9 at a highly official appointment with the royal family in London. Meghan did not show the hard Megxit headlines of the past few weeks. She did what was asked of her: smile, wave, look good. An appearance without flaws. However, when interacting with Prince William, 37, and Duchess Catherine, 38, during the service at Westminster Abbey, the facade of the former actress is cracked. This is confirmed by friends of Meghan.

Duchess Meghan and Duchess Catherine: the relationship is cool

DailyMail.com quotes an insider who describes Meghan's feelings during the service at Westminster Abbey in London as follows:

"It is still strange for her that no one hugs and that everyone is so tense, especially Kate. She said it was obvious that Kate and William did not approve of their decisions and that the tension was unbearable. Kate hardly saw her and their interaction was kept to a minimum. "

This was also the impression given by the live broadcast of the Royals' appearance, which the BBC broadcast on its YouTube channel.

The Megxit was a good decision

Meghan continued to tell her Inner Circle that her last trip as a senior royal was confirmation that her retreat had made the right decision. "There is no warmth between family members (Harrys) and she wants to raise Archie in a household that is full of laughter and joy and lots of hugs," the website quotes Meghan's friends.

It is said that the farewell was not as easy for Meghan as many assume. Immediately before appearing at Westminster Abbey, Meghan received young students at Buckingham Palace in her role as patron of the "Association of Commonwealth Universities" – and is said to have had tears in her eyes, according to "The Telegraph" reporter Bryony Gordon.

Earlier this week The Duchess of Sussex, in her role as Patron of the Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU), met with the bright minds from across the Commonwealth to hear about their commitment to tackling the global challenges we all face. The Duchess spoke with Scholars studying and researching important areas surrounding; cleaning up plastic pollution in our oceans, helping to build more sustainable cities, improving health outcomes for citizens, and supporting decent work and economic growth. Paving the way as the next generation of leaders, these inspirational scholars, are spread far across the Commonwealth from Malawi to Malaysia, Ghana to Sri Lanka – all of whom will use the skills and knowledge they gain while studying in the UK to make a difference when they return to their home countries. The Duchess, who also attended university with support of a scholarship, is a strong advocate of accessible education for all. As the Royal Patron of The Association of Commonwealth Universities (@The_ACU_Official) since January 2019, The Duchess has met and engaged with students, academics, and staff from ACU member universities across the Commonwealth to learn more about the vital work they do to address global challenges. As President and Vice President of The @Queens_Commonwealth_Trust, The Duke and Duchess thank all those who are working to give access to education for all.

Baby Archie stayed in Canada

Baby Archie, ten months, did not accompany his parents to London; he stayed in her new home in Canada. Meghan is said to have kept in close contact with the little one via FaceTime. The insider claims: "She said it wasn't as if she (Archie) was deliberately keeping away, but there was no point in bringing him along and doing him harm." The corona virus is also said to have played a role in Meghan's decision. After performing with the Royals, the 38-year-old is said to have flown back to Canada immediately. Harry, it is said, would still have a few appointments in London and Meghan would follow to Canada in mid-March.
