Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have reportedly reached out to Kate Middleton and “offer an olive branch” amid her ongoing battle with cancer.
As you’ve likely heard by now, Kate made an appearance at Trooping the Colour last weekend.
At the time, numerous media outlets accused Meghan of trying to upstage Kate by launching a new product.
But that doesn’t seem to have been the case. In fact, it looks as though Harry and Meghan are eager to bury the hatchet.
According to a new report from Closer magazine, Meghan and Harry recently tried to make peace with Kate.
“All they can do is continue to reach out and offer olive branches,” a source told the outlet (via Independent).
“Despite all their bad blood, [Meghan’s] heart does go out to Kate – she can only imagine how hard this situation must be for her,” the insider added.
“Meghan has made it clear she’d love nothing more than to move past all the nonsense and find a way towards healing for everyone’s sake.”
We don’t know how Kate responded to the peace offering.
And we don’t have many specifics about Meghan and Harry’s “olive branch.”
Did it take the form of a phone call? A letter? We might never know.
But if the reports are true, this could be part of a larger effort on the Sussexes’ part to get back in the royals’ good graces.
There have been reports in recent weeks that Harry and Meghan are hoping to move back to the UK.
And doing so might require them to make amends with Harry’s family.
“I hear that Harry is both content with his new lifestyle and homesick. It just depends on the day,” Royal expert Kinsey Schofield recently told Fox News.
It makes sense that Hary would be feeling conflicted.
After all, moving back to the UK would likely mean mending fences with the family who evicted him from Frogmore Cottage and denied him a security detail.
The bad blood between Meghan and Kate goes back several years. And there are many who believe the sisters-in-law will never see eye-to-eye.
These days, the Princess of Wales likely has bigger things on her mind than familial feuds.
Kate is undergoing cancer treatment, and her father-in-law, King Charles, is also battling the disease.
Maybe these difficult times will lead Kate to take a big-picture view and decide that life is too short for rivalries.
Or maybe she’ll decide that she has enough on her plate without indulging the whims of relatives who live on the other side of the world.
Only time will tell.
