A royal expert has delved into the relationship of the Princess of Wales and Meghan Markle following the Sussex UK departure in 2020.

Princess Kate and Meghan Markle’s relationship was branded “cold” by a royal expert who discussed the duchess’s exit from the Royal Family

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex shocked the world in early 2020 when they announced their decision to step down as senior working royals. They subsequently moved to the US, where they have now settled.

But their relationship with the Royal Family became ever so frostier year after year, following a number of explosive claims the Sussexes made against them.

Now veteran royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams has spoken about Meghan’s relationship with the Firm following her departure.

He told GB News: “The relationship between Meghan and Catherine was cold or cool, putting it mildly.

Meghan only lasted about a year and a half as a senior working royal before they indicated that they were unhappy.

The fact she was so used to the red carpet and the audience it was thought she and Harry would be perfect for the role.

“She was, of course, deeply unhappy.”

Mr Fitzwilliams also claimed that the duchess provided a “way out” for Prince Harry, who was allegedly already unhappy within the Firm.

He explained: “It all went very wrong [Harry and Meghan’s exit from the Royal Family], precisely why is still a matter for debate.

“I wouldn’t put a specific reason behind it because Harry was unhappy, and I think Meghan provided the way out in a sense.”

Harry and Meghan now reside in Montecito, California, along with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

Earlier this month, the duke opened up about his life in the States and revealed he “very much enjoys” living across the pond.

Speaking at the New York Times DealBook Summit, he said: “I very much enjoy living here and bringing up my kids here.”

He added that his life in the US us free of royal responsibilities and feels “as though it’s the life my mum wanted” for him.

The duke also noted that his family have a level of privacy in the US and a life of activities they “undoubtedly wouldn’t be able to do in the UK” due to security concerns.
