Inside Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle's frosty relationship

Prince Harry once revealed what Kate Middleton texted Meghan Markle during their infamous ‘argument’.

The Duke of Sussex opened up about the drama that surrounded his and Meghan’s wedding day, which took place in 2018.

Harry made the claims in his bombshell memoir, Spare, which came out back in 2023, and directly responded to the various tabloid reports that Meghan allegedly made Kate cry in the run-up to the ceremony.

Now, in her infamous Oprah interview, Meghan insisted it was the other way around, but added: “I don’t think it’s fair to her to get into the details, because she apologized. And I’ve forgiven her.”

Harry, however, was more than happy to get into the details.

In his book, the father-of-two claimed that his wife-to-be and sister-in-law had a falling out over bridesmaid dresses for Kate’s second-eldest, Princess Charlotte.

With Kate and William’s daughter, Charlotte, set to be part of their big day, Harry claimed that there was a spat over the fit of her dress.

He recalled Kate contacting Meghan just four days before the wedding to say that the ‘French Couture’ dresses needed remaking.

He writes that Kate became frustrated because Meghan didn’t get back to her immediately.

“Meg didn’t reply to Kate straight away,” says Harry. “Yes, she had endless wedding-related texts, but mostly she was dealing with the chaos surrounding her father. So the next morning she texted Kate that our tailor was standing by.”

“This wasn’t sufficient,” he adds.

Meghan’s father Thomas Markle Snr had to undergo heart surgery back in 2018, and was ultimately unable to attend the wedding.

Harry says that Kate later complained: “Charlotte’s dress is too big, too long, too baggy. She cried when she tried it on a[t] home.”

To which Meghan replied: “Right, and I told you the tailor has been standing by since 8am. Here. At KP. Can you take Charlotte to have it altered, as the other mums are doing?”

However, Kate reportedly disagreed, saying: “No, all the dresses need to be remade.”

Harry says: “Meg asked if Kate was aware of what was going on right now. With her father. Kate said she was well aware, but the dresses. And the wedding is in four days!”

To which Meghan snapped back: “Yes, Kate, I know… “

Harry recalls Meghan telling Kate: “I’m not sure what else to say. If the dress doesn’t fit then please take Charlotte to see Ajay. He’s been waiting all day,” to which Kate replies: “Fine.”

After returning home to the aftermath of the disagreement, Harry says he found Meghan in tears ‘sobbing on the floor’.

The following day, Kate apparently came round with a bouquet of flowers and a card to apologise for the misunderstanding.

13-year-old Esra Haynes died after ‘chroming’.

At the time, the Royal Family chose not to comment on Harry’s allegations in Spare.
