Meghan Markle and Prince Harryâs relationship with the royal family is strained to say the least. However, the Duke and Duchess of Sussexâs ties to the crown may have been made even more tense by rumors of a possible affair between Meghan and her brother-in-law, Prince William. Sources claim that the former Suits starâs flirty behavior towards William caused quite the stir. Even sparking wild rumors within the palace and ending up creating even more tension between William and Harry.
According to a report by The Times, Meghan Markleâs relationship with Prince William hasnât been great over the years. However, before she and Prince Harry left the royal family behind for a life in the United States, things got awkward. Rumors about Meghanâs constant flirting with William began to circulate. Some staffers even allegedly believed there was more to the story.
Upon joining the royal family, Meghan allegedly made some people uncomfortable with her touchy-feely ways. Her physical touching was so blatant that some even began to whisper about a possible fling between her and William. Of course, the elder prince was said to be put off by Meghanâs show of affection. After all, he is known to be more stern and serious like his father, King Charles.
However, Prince William wasnât the only one taken aback by Meghan Markleâs affectionate ways. King Charles and Kate Middleton were also said to have been surprised by the constant hugging and cheek kissing.

âMeghan hugged [William] virtually every time they bumped into each other,â a source revealed. âThe hugging and cheek-kissing fueled gossip among the staff that Meghan was flirting with William, which she was obviously not, but the tense atmosphere caused by all the touchy-feeliness deepened the rift between the brothers. In fact, Williamâs rather awkward, even inhibited personality â an inheritance from his father â was baffling for the more spontaneous Meghan.â
When Meghanâs intentions werenât received in the way she liked, she reportedly asked Prince Harry why his family was so stuffy and serious. The royals later saw her influence on Harry as the younger prince pulling away from his familyâs traditions and values.
Since leaving the royal family in 2020, Meghan and Harry have been constant figures in the headlines and tabloids. Rumors about their family, finances, and even their marriage have circulated.
Recently, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex appear to be branching out on their own when it comes to their careers. Of course, this has sparked divorce rumors. Sources believe that there is tension between the couple and that their marriage could use some extra attention.
âThe question for Harry and Meghan this year is how they go about prioritizing their marriage, as they appear to be on completely separate pages in their lives,â the insider added.
âHeâs admitted that they have been barmy to pursue separate careers because it is simply not working. Friends are worried that if things get even more tense between them, they may start wondering if itâs all worth it, especially if Harry isnât happyâ
It remains to be seen if Meghan Markle and Prince Harry will be able to fight through the adversity. As for their feud with the royal family, perhaps Prince Williamâs perception of Meghanâs âflirtyâ behavior added to the rift between him and his brother. For now, all parties are staying quiet on the rumor.
