The Princess of Wales has cut contact with the Duchess of Sussex and the two royals have not spoken in years

Meghan Markle is feeling "remorseful" over her feud with Princess Kate and wants "some sort of reconciliation", according to a royal commentator.

However, Hilary Fordwich said Meghan "has a long way to go for Kate" to see the benefit of making amends.


The Duchess of Sussex is said to have been thinking about the Princess of Wales amid her cancer diagnosis.

Other insiders claim that Meghan "wants to make peace" with Kate despite "genuinely feeling hurt" over the fall out.

"Meghan Markle is purportedly remorseful. … Well, one would hope," Fordwich told Fox News.

"It’s just being spread that she doesn’t want any bad blood. Of course, she wants and needs some sort of reconciliation. [But] Meghan Markle has a long way to go for Kate to ever see an upside for the Royal Family or the public in a reconciliation."

The last time the royals saw each other was at Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in September 2022.

The Duchess has not returned to the UK since.

"Meghan’s friends say she regrets how things went down, and she never meant any harm to Kate," a source told In Touch.

"Though she must realise she could’ve done things differently.

"Meghan’s been going out of her way to show concern for Kate in this difficult time."

However, another author said the two women have never been close.

"From the very beginning, Kate and Meghan were hardly what I would call a love match," Andersen told Fox.

"Even before they had their famous, tearful row over the flower girls’ dresses at Harry and Meghan’s wedding, the relationship between the two princesses was frosty.

"After Megxit, Kate did what she could do to bring brothers Prince Harry and Prince William back together, but that proved impossible once the Sussexes let loose on the royal family during the Oprah interview and then in Harry’s blistering memoir ‘Spare'."

Meghan previously said during a sit down interview with Oprah Winfrey that she has "forgiven" Kate after she apologised about the flower girls' dress row.
