Prince William Is ‘Sick’ of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Making Kate Middleton ‘Anxious,’ Insiders Claim… see more

Prince William and his wife, Kate Middleton, have not had a strong relationship with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in years. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped down from their royal roles back in 2020, but rumors about tensions between the couples started a while before that.

Since leaving, Harry and Meghan have told their side of the story, which has only added stress. And with Kate having gone through cancer treatment in 2024, William is reportedly “sick and tired” of the anxiety that the feud has caused his wife.

Prince William and Kate Middleton aren’t close with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle

When the two couples first met, it seemed like there was potential. Of course, Meghan and Kate had lived very different lives up until that point, but they both carried themselves as ambitious, strong women navigating the royal scene. However, when William and Harry had a falling out between 2018 and 2019, things between Meghan and Kate went south as well.

These days, tensions have only built between William and his brother — to the point where insiders say the brothers don’t speak. Now, a source close to William and Kate claims that Kate is “anxious” any time Harry and Meghan take their next move, and William is over it.

“William was sick and tired of seeing how triggered and anxious Kate would become every time Meghan and Harry would do or say something that negatively impacted them — no matter how subtle — and as soon as he suggested it, Kate agreed it was vital for them all,” a source told Heatworld, according to Marie Claire, referring to William suggesting that he and Kate stop mentioning Harry and Meghan in conversation altogether.

William and Kate are currently vacationing with their family at Balmoral, and the two have allegedly created a “self-imposed ban” on any discussions around the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Kate has been out of the spotlight for most of this year for health reasons, but now, the two are enjoying some time away with the family as they do every year at Balormal. It’s essentially a recess for the royals; they don’t make any major appearances during these last few weeks of summer as they reconnect with each other and enjoy some family time.

William and Kate have vowed to put their family first, and they have stuck to that by giving their three children (Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis) the most normal lives possible. The three children are William and Kate’s priority in addition to Kate’s health, and they seemingly are putting Harry and Meghan out of their minds.
