Many stories have been told about Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton’s disagreement before Meghan’s wedding.
Now, a new book shares more details and shows that both Meghan and Kate cried over a bridesmaid dress.
This moment wasn’t just about fashion – it was filled with stress, misunderstanding, and emotions.
Let’s look at what really happened and why this moment still matters.
The Argument About Princess Charlotte’s Dress
Princess Charlotte was one of the bridesmaids for Prince Harry and Meghan’s wedding in 2018.
Kate Middleton told Meghan that Charlotte’s dress didn’t fit well – it was too big and too long.
Charlotte even cried when she tried it on.
Meghan suggested bringing Charlotte to the tailor at Kensington Palace.
But Kate wanted all the dresses to be remade.
This disagreement led to a tense moment between the two women.
Meghan was already going through a lot – including issues with her father and the wedding stress.
Prince Harry later said he found Meghan crying on the floor after the dress incident.
Apologies Were Made – But the Story Changed
In a famous interview with Oprah Winfrey, Meghan shared that Kate later apologized.
She brought flowers and a note. Meghan forgave her.
But months later, a story came out in the press saying Meghan made Kate cry – not the other way around.
Meghan was hurt by the false report but chose to stay silent at the time.
A royal staff member later said that both women cried and said things they regretted.
They were under pressure, and it was a very emotional time for both.
Not Just About the Dress, Bigger Picture
The dress story is just one part of a bigger issue between Meghan and Kate.
In the Netflix show Harry & Meghan, Meghan said royal life felt very formal and cold.
Even in private, there were no hugs, no closeness – things Meghan was used to.
She hoped Kate would be a friend because they were both marrying into the royal family.
But royal writer Omid Scobie said Kate wasn’t interested in a close bond.
This made Meghan feel even more alone.
What We Can Learn From This
The story of the bridesmaid dress shows us that even royals have real emotions.
They face stress, family pressure, and misunderstandings, just like anyone else.
Sometimes, stories in the media are not the full truth.
This story reminds us to be kind and not judge too quickly.
Behind the fame, they are still human.
Conclusion
The moment when Meghan and Kate cried over a dress was about more than clothing.
It was about the emotional weight of royal life, relationships, and being misunderstood.
Now, with more facts coming out, we can see that both women were hurting – and both deserved empathy.
