Prince William was ‘concerned’ over Meghan Markle’s wedding outfit

The wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle was quite a spectacle. Millions of people got to witness the young Prince tying the knot to the woman he described as the love of his life.

From this extravagant ceremony watched by 29.19 million viewers, to the birth of their son Archie Mountbatten-Windsor in 2019, the stepping down from their royal duties, the Sussex Royals’ every move has been closely followed by the media. That same media that “forced” them to leave the U.K. and move to the States.

According to the Duchess, before the split with the Firm, she and Harry allegedly asked for a permission to move to another country in the Commonwealth, perhaps South Africa or Canada. However, the answer was a resounding “no.”

“Anything to just … because just by existing, we were upsetting the dynamic of the hierarchy. So we go, ‘Okay, fine, let’s get out of here. Happy to,’” Meghan recalled during a recent interview with The Cut.

Saying that other Royal Family members had gotten the green light for the same arrangement, she added, “That, for whatever reason, is not something that we were allowed to do, even though several other members of the family do that exact thing.”

When Meghan first met William, he was very fond of her, although she believed at the time that the relationship between the two would be “trying” from the off, according to Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand, authors of the Pro-Sussex biography Finding Freedom.

“She was self-aware enough to understand that the brothers were wary of women who were more interested in their titles than their wellbeing,” Scobie and Durand wrote in the book. “And she couldn’t have come from a more different world than that of William, his wife, and most of their friends.”

However, the first-ever encounter between William and Meghan was quite pleasant for both of them.

William was reported to have said to his brother’s girlfriend: “I was looking forward to meeting the girl who has put that silly grin on my brother’s face.”

At the same time, William was concerned that the things between Harry and Meghan were moving too fast. “William soon began to wonder about some of Meghan’s traits and motivations,” a source told the Daily Mail, as revealed by the Express.

“He was worried that at times she seemed to be more concerned about her personal progression or profile over the wider goals and aims of the Royal Family.

“Eventually, he decided to keep those feeling for himself because all he ever wanted was for “[Meghan] to be happy and appreciated the huge adjustment of entering the Royal Family.”

Fast forward to Meghan becoming part of the family officially, she found it hard to get used to that new life and Harry didn’t believe his brother and sister-in-law helped Meghan settle in.

Speaking to Fox in 2022, royal expert and author Katie Nicholl, who had just released The New Royals: Queen Elizabeth’s Legacy and the Future of the Crown, said, “It was certainly Harry’s feeling that William and Kate hadn’t rolled out the red carpet as much as they might have done.

“You know, there wasn’t this sort of instant welcoming of Meghan into the royal fold,” she added.

“I say in the book that William was the first to meet Meghan. And actually, he was really thrilled that Harry had met someone who he’d really fallen for. He was overjoyed when Meghan came into his life, and he fell in love with this woman,” she added.

Harry proposed to Meghan with a custom three-stone ring that featured diamonds from his late mother’s jewelry collection, but the following year, when their wedding was to take place, William was allegedly concerned that Meghan would wear a piece of jewelry that belonged to Princess Diana.

“I have been told that, still concerned about the match, he’d sought assurances from the Queen that Harry’s bride would not be wearing any of Princess Diana’s jewellery, even though his own wife was allowed to wear it,” author Robert Jobson wrote in Catherine, The Princess of Wales: The Biography, per the Mirror.

“Despite sharp digs and thin skins on both sides, the wedding at Windsor in May 2018 was a spectacular success,” Jobson continued. “In public, the Royal Family were all smiles, though privately they were at daggers drawn.”

The relationship between the Sussexes and the rest of the royals remains rocky.
