The Duchess’ journey with the British royal family has been anything but smooth since she fell for Prince Harry, especially with the tensions brewing between the Sussexes and the Wales couple. Meghan Markle entered the royal scene when she got engaged to Prince Harry just a year after their first date, and had a dreamy wedding in 2018. But behind the fairy tale, she bore the weight of accusations for stirring up trouble between the brothers. And now, another member of the royal clan has just thrown more wood onto the fire.

According to Kate Middleton’s uncle, Markle is to blame for the divide between Prince Harry and his brother and sister-in-law.

Meghan Markle is allegedly the catalyst for royal family feud 

On a recent episode of the British reality show Celebrity Big Brother, Gary Goldsmith, Kate Middleton’s uncle, did not hold back in his opinions about Meghan Markle. Goldsmith described Markle as a “stick in the spokes” of the British royal family, insinuating that she brought about unnecessary “drama” into the royal fold. The Celebrity Big Brother contestant reminisced about the days when Prince Harry, Kate Middleton, and Prince William were like the three musketeers, but then Meghan Markle came along and allegedly upset the applecart.

Goldsmith felt that Prince Harry had gone too far by airing the family’s dirty laundry and then expecting a welcome with open arms. He also expressed his disappointment over the situation and predicted that, as a forgiving nation, the UK would eventually welcome Prince Harry back into the fold. Middelton’s uncle, however, overlooked the fact that Prince William might still be a stumbling block to the Duke’s return to the family, especially given the recent reports following Prince Harry’s visit with King Charles.

As rumors flew about Prince Harry considering a return to royal duties, Prince William allegedly made it trickier for his brother to find his way back into the royal fold.

Prince William is unlikely to welcome the Sussexes 

Last month, Prince Harry hopped on a flight to visit his father, King Charles, upon hearing about his diagnosis. Following the visit, many reports suggested that if needed, Prince Harry would lend a hand to assist his father. However, amidst all the talk of him diving back into royal duties, Prince William seemed to have slammed the door shut even tighter on any hope of a reconciliation. A source shared with the Mirror that when it comes to his brother, there is “no chance” Prince William would reconsider.

Despite the ongoing talks between the heir and the King being kept under wraps, Prince William remained resolute in his position regarding his brother. The source suggested that if anyone was stepping up to shoulder more duties in the future, it would be Prince William himself. Nevertheless, right now, Prince William’s main focus is on his father’s health. While it is clear that there are numerous factors fueling the rift between the brothers, Gary Goldsmith chose to single out Meghan Markle.
