Harry and Meghan wished the Princess a speedy recovery as soon as they found out she had cancer. Now it has been revealed how they are trying to be there for her in these difficult moments.
To be there for her is the biggest gift. Since Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales and wife of Prince William, announced on March 22nd that she has cancer, the ongoing quiet conflict between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, and the rest of the family seems to be on hold.
According to American media reports, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle do not want to exacerbate the situation for the future queen at such a difficult time.
“The Duke and Duchess of Sussex wish to maintain a great deal of respect and avoid adding stress in this situation. If Will and Kate want to mend the relationship, Meghan and Harry are ready to provide it,” said an unnamed source close to the royal couple to Us Weekly.
Another anonymous source familiar with the situation at Kensington Palace emphasizes that they are reconsidering their positions regarding the dynamics within the British royal family.
“They want to have a relationship with Meghan and Harry and would not want their anger to be passed on to the next generation,” says a person close to the Prince and Princess of Wales. “They want to mend the relationship with them for the sake of the children.”
The same evening that Kate Middleton publicly shared her battle with cancer, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex reached out to express their wishes for her recovery.
Prince Harry and Meghan briefly stated, “We wish health and recovery for Kate and the family, and hope that they can maintain their privacy and peace.” This mention of privacy was criticized as it was perceived as an allusion to their own lack of peace from the media.
Media reports later indicated that they have been in contact with Kate Middleton and Prince William. It was also noted that the Duchess of Sussex has been inquiring through her sources at Kensington Palace about the princess’s condition, although it is not known if they have communicated directly again.
