'Optimistic' Kate Middleton Plots Peace, But Meghan Markle Plays the Villain in Princes William and Harry Rift

Meghan Markle, 43, is "standing in the way" of Catherine, Princess of Wales,' 42, efforts to erase the "endless" feud between Prince William, 42, and Prince Harry, 40.

This led a well-placed source to spill, "Meghan is all for Harry making peace with his family, but she’s not going to let them sideline her in the process."

"She’s been very clear that she’s not about to let William, or anyone else, drive a wedge between her and Harry," they added. "Any attempt to handle things with just Harry is a no-go. She feels strongly that she and Harry are a team, and if his family wants to welcome him back but not her, that will be a dealbreaker."

After the Duke of Sussex's 40th birthday palace message on September 15, reports emerged suggesting the future queen was playing "peacemaker" between the once-close brothers.

However, reports from sources later emerged via royal expert Paula Froelich, saying "it is simply not true" and Meghan was reportedly to blame for all of it.

The insider added, "While Kate has played peacemaker with Harry and William in the past, not now."

Froelich further revealed via the source "(that was before Harry spilled tea on Kate, alleging she incited him to wear a N--- costume and was rude to his wife, Meghan Markle."

They continued, "Middleton was also furious when it was later alleged she and King Charles were the royal racists mentioned in Harry and Meghan’s Oprah Winfrey interview — allegations that only came out after his pal, Omid Scobie, released his book Endgame, which wasn’t edited properly in the Netherlands and revealed their names)."

With the Princess of Wales no longer caring about the "endless royal feud" between her husband and brother-in-law, the insider pointed out that HRH may have come around to flat-out admitting her estranged sister-in-law created this drama.

"The problem is Meghan," they further spilled to Froelich. "Her motivation is money and prestige. Look how she insists on using her Duchess title on her stationery — and insisted on Prince and Princess for her children. It’s complete hypocrisy. To say you want out of the family but insist on keeping your titles? It’s all about commercialism and money for her."
