A royal expert has claimed that Meghan Markle is "pushing for an apology" after it was revealed that Prince William would like to "reconcile" with his estranged brother.
The pair's relationship has been strained since Harry moved overseas to the US with his wife Meghan Markle in 2020 and launched a series of attacks on the Royal Family in the form of interviews and his memoir Spare.
There have recently been reports that the hatchet could be buried after The Prince and Princess of Wales have reportedly asked the Sussexes to bring their children with them the next time they visit the UK, which could be next month when Harry attends the Invictus Games.
However, Royal author Tom Quinn has recently claimed that Meghan has said that "until she feels that the Royal Family have been sufficiently nice to her - and grovelingly apologised for the past - it's not going to happen."
Meghan Markle is "pushing for an apology" from the Royal Family
PASpeaking to GB News, Royal expert and editor-at-large for the Mail on Sunday, Charlotte Griffiths said: "I think that she is pushing for an apology.
"She's been pushing for that for quite a long time, although there have been reports from the Sussex camp that she has sort of given up on an apology.

"I don't think that she is actually blocking him from seeing his family though, we know that he came to see his dad when his dad was ill and we know that he is coming over again in May.
"Although I have to say, she is not coming with him. He is coming over to St Paul's for an Invictus Games event and it is a surprise she is not coming with him, it feels like a withdrawal of support.
"I think that she is just protecting herself because she knows that she is not very popular in this country. I do think that Tom may be pushing the boundaries to say that she is preventing an olive branch, to be honest."
When asked if William actually wants an olive branch she said: "The idea that William is looking for a reconciliation is for the birds.
Prince Harry and William have a strained relationship
PA"This is a guy who has a lot of big things on his plate. He has two very sick relatives one of whom is his wife.
"He is planning to be the future King, who knows how long that could be. That must be at the forefront of his mind.
"He could be the King in the next few years and the idea that he's going to get bogged down by more psychodrama from his brother, from Montecito, from Meghan.
"I mean, he's just he's moved past all of that. He's actually past the angry stage.
"I'm hearing he just can't be bothered with those guys anymore."
There have been tensions between Prince Harry and his brother since Harry released his memoir Spare, in which he criticised William.
In the book, the Duke of Sussex said that he and William had an argument and William allegedly called his wife Meghan "rude", "difficult" and "abrasive".
In light of Princess Kate’s cancer diagnosis, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex sent a heartfelt message wishing her "health and healing".
