A return to royal-style public engagements has reportedly reignited tensions within the Royal Family, with Kate Middleton said to be increasingly frustrated by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's appearances in Britain. According to an unnamed source cited by RadarOnline, the Princess of Wales wants the Sussexes to acknowledge the hurt caused by their public criticism of the Royal Family before reconciliation can be considered.
The claims follow the couple's visit to Nottingham on 15 October 2026, where they undertook charitable engagements despite having stepped back from their working royal roles in 2020. The visit reportedly revived tensions surrounding Prince William and Prince Harry's strained relationship and the Sussexes' departure from royal life. However, the allegations about Kate's private feelings have not been independently verified, and neither she nor Kensington Palace has publicly confirmed the claims.
