Before the death of Queen Elizabeth II, Meghan and Princess Kate didn’t have many opportunities for a face-to-face encounter, with the Duchess of Sussex travelling back to the UK only for a short visit to the late monarch in April 2022 and, two months later, to mark her Platinum Jubilee. When they reunited in September 2022 to meet mourners gathered in Windsor, Kate and Meghan seemingly had the chance to, at least partially, bridge the gap between them.

Despite their differences, the brothers kept close together and even stood together to make their greetings. “Kate got out the other side with Meghan behind her. Kate’s first gesture of intent came as she stormed around the car to join the brothers without as much as a backward glance at Meghan. She was clearly going to make no attempt to play at small talk or unity.

“Meghan went to follow at a distance but held back as though unsure whether to join the others or not. While Kate ignored the Sussexes, it was William who noticed Meghan and extended an arm to invite her to join them. Meghan hung back in the group and Harry squeezed round behind his brother to get to his wife, who was standing nervously tossing her hair.”
