Meghan and Kate had a disagreement over Charlotte’s flower girl outfit

One prevalent rumour suggested that Kate and Meghan had fallen out over Princess Charlotte’s flower girl outfit at the royal wedding. And Meghan seemingly confirmed as much during the couple’s explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey in March 2021.

Refuting claims that she had made Kate cry, Meghan stated: “The narrative with Kate, it didn’t happen.

Relations between the ‘Fab Four’ have soured

“A few days before the wedding she was upset about flower girl dresses and it made me cry. It really hurt my feelings. It was a really hard week of the wedding.

And if you love her, you don’t need to hate me.”
