Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle have famously never been close, but sources are speaking out to say that there may be hopes of them reconciling in the future.

“Kate has been reaching out to Meghan a lot more since [Lilibet] was born, she’s sending [notes and] gifts and trying to build up a relationship,” a source told US Weekly. “The firm has been instructing staffers to reach out more to Harry and Meghan to get them to soften a bit.”

This comes after Meghan talked about Kate in her explosive tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey, saying that the “narrative” about how she made Kate cry before her wedding in May of 2018 was false.

“The reverse happened. … A few days before the wedding she was upset about flower girl dresses and it made me cry. It really hurt my feelings,” Meghan said. “It was a really hard week of the wedding. And she was upset about something, but she owned it, and she apologized. And she brought me flowers and a note, apologizing.”

“If you love me, you don’t have to hate her. And if you love her, you don’t have to hate me,” Meghan later added of Kate.

After the interview, another insider said that Kate “feels like there was a misunderstanding” between her and Meghan. A third source said that the women were no longer speaking.

“They were never that close, but the reason they’re not speaking is because of the rift between Prince Harry and Prince William,” this source said. “Harry and William have communicated sparingly over the last year, but none of their communications have been friendly in quite some time. There is real animosity that the brothers have toward one another, and that has spilled over to Meghan and Kate’s relationship, making it very hard for them to be friends or even friendly.”

Despite the tension, Kate said earlier this month that she and William “can’t wait to meet” Meghan and Prince Harry’s newborn daughter Lili.

“We haven’t met her yet. I hope that will be soon,” she said.

It remains to be seen whether a reconciliation between Kate and Meghan can really happen.
