The Princess of Wales and Meghan Markle Haven’t Spoken Since 2019, New Book Claims—and Yes, That Includes at Joint Appearances

Prince William, Kate Middleton, Prince Harry, and Meghan Markle during the mourning period for Queen Elizabeth in September 2022.

The silence included the walkabout Kate, Meghan, and their husbands Prince William and Harry took part in on September 10, two days after the death of Queen Elizabeth, at Windsor Castle.
