It was three words that reverberated around the world: On the heels of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey in March 2021, Buckingham Palace released a statement that stated, of Harry and Meghan’s claims in the interview, “recollections may vary.” Now, a new book says, it was Princess Kate who pushed for that memorable line to be included, multiple outlets report.
In the paperback edition of Valentine Low’s book Courtiers—and per The Daily Mail—behind the scenes, Kate was even “steelier” than Prince William in helping devise the Palace response to Harry and Meghan’s claims of racism in the interview. The couple were united in wanting a “toughened up” statement and told Her late Majesty so.
