Not at all that long ago, the prospect of Prince William and Kate Middleton having sorts of amicable reunion with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle was not just unlikely, but also unthinkable.
Given the explosive allegation and the no-holds-barred approach Harry and Meghan have taken with regards to besmirching the name and reputation of the British Royal Family, it comes as no surprise that two of the monarchy’s most senior members have distanced themselves from the Sussexes.
Not at all that long ago, the prospect of Prince William and Kate Middleton having sorts of amicable reunion with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle was not just unlikely, but also unthinkable.
Given the explosive allegation and the no-holds-barred approach Harry and Meghan have taken with regards to besmirching the name and reputation of the British Royal Family, it comes as no surprise that two of the monarchy’s most senior members have distanced themselves from the Sussexes.
“They want a relationship with Meghan and Harry, and they don’t want the acrimony to carry over to the next generation,” the source stated, according to the New York Post.
“Obviously, the Duke and Duchess want their kids to have a relationship with their cousins.”
Given that Harry and Meghan have had their base in Montecito, California for a few years now, it makes sense to assume that their children, Archie and Lilibet, have seen little of their cousins, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
Though it is only natural that their parents would encourage a healthy relationship between the cousins, there are hurdles standing in the way, the biggest of which remains the simmering tensions between William and Kate and Harry and Meghan.
Whether or not they can ever let bygones be bygones remains to be seen, but there’s a strong sense – at least if you read the majority of royal-centric reports coming out of the UK – that William and Kate no longer trust the Sussexes after all that’s been said and done.
With that in mind, we wouldn’t hold our breath for any royal reunion if there’s not a monumental shift in the coming weeks/months. But I guess never say never is as good a stance as any.
