The Princess of Wales played a significant role in her brother-in-law's
intimate exploration of his life as a member of the royal family, released
earlier this year. For years, the three of them, along with Prince William,
joined forces to champion causes close to their hearts. However, a natural
distance has emerged since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped away from
their royal duties. Author Valentine Low suggests that Kate was taken aback by
comments made in Prince Harry's memoir but remains resolute in her commitment
not to allow his remarks to impact her personal and royal life.
Low portrays Kate as a person of considerable grace, initially likening her to
a sister to Prince Harry. They were very close, getting along exceptionally
well. However, the picture he paints later in the book suggests a more distant
and cool demeanor towards Meghan, which could understandably hurt her.
In a conversation with Ted for Daily Creator Kinsey Scoffield, Low noted that
the couple has chosen to remain silent regarding the allegations made by
Prince Harry. Instead, they have focused on their work. Low adds, "But she and
William have both gone out of their way not to react, and they've definitely
instructed their staff not to provide briefings on their feelings about the
book and the Netflix series. I'm sure they're smarting on the inside, but they
carry on with their duties, and it seems to be paying off."
Once, Prince Harry referred to the Princess of Wales as "the sister I never
had and always wanted," emphasizing her compatibility with his brother and how
they visibly made each other happy. However, the tone shifted in later
chapters of the memoir, echoing interviews he and Meghan Markle gave after
leaving the royal family, characterizing Kate as a somewhat rigid figure.
Discussing a dinner with William and his sister-in-law, Prince Harry noted the
marked difference in how the two women dressed, suggesting it might have
caused discord. While The Duchess warmly welcomed them to their Nottingham
Cottage home, Kate was dressed to the nines.
