Princess Kate Allegedly Referred to Walkabout With Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as the ‘Hardest’ Thing She’s Done

usmagazine.com:

A royal roller-coaster. Princess Kate had a difficult time reuniting with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, a new book claims.Kate, 41, and Prince William were joined by Harry, 38, and the Suits alum, 41, for a walkabout at Windsor Castle in September 2022 to greet mourners who gathered to pay their respects to the late monarch.

At the time, a source exclusively told Us Weekly that William, 40, extended the invitation to his brother and sister-in-law.The outing marked one of the first times the “Fab Four” appeared together in the wake of Harry and Meghan’s 2020 exit from their senior royal roles.

According to royal correspondent Robert Jobson, the couples only gave the “illusion” of putting on a united front.In his upcoming book, Our King, Jobson alleges that Kate felt uncomfortable before stepping out for the cameras. “Catherine later admitted to a senior royal that, such was the ill feeling between the two couples, the joint walkabout was one of the hardest things she’d ever had to do,” he writes, per excerpts published by the Daily Mail. (Us has reached out to Buckingham Palace for comment on Jobson’s book.)Tensions have been high between Harry, Meghan and the extended royal family since the Sussexes moved to California with son Archie, 3, and daughter Lilibet, 22 months, following their final engagement as senior royals in March 2020: the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey.
