Meghan Markle “isn’t happy at all” and is “panicking” that Prince Harry could be sucked back into “his old life,” an insider has claimed.
According to an insider, the Duchess of Sussex has become concerned about Prince William and Princess Kate’s intentions towards Harry. The Prince and Princess of Wales are reportedly making more of an effort to encourage Harry back into The Firm.
The insider claims that Meghan Markle is paranoid that her husband will be pulled back into his old life in the Royal Family and as a senior royal.
A source told Closer: “Meghan isn’t happy at all. She’s panicking about Harry being sucked back into his old life.
“For her, it’s far better for Harry to be on the outside so she can have him firmly and safely in her corner. The thought of him cosying up to his family again has struck a note of panic.”
Relations between the princes have been strained for many years, but their rift exploded after Harry and Meghan’s interview with Oprah Winfrey – where they claimed Kate had made Meghan cry.
Harry then made a string of claims in his memoir, Spare, claiming William had once “knocked him to the floor” in a fight and that he had also pointed his finger in Meghan’s face and branded her “rude”.
The insider claimed: “Meghan is desperately trying to dissuade Harry from taking any olive branches. She’s insisting that his family will use them against him and try to pit to against each other.
“She’s furious and has very firmly let it be known, through Harry, that she wants Kate to stop messaging him.
“She’s understandably worried about how this will pan out and, while she’s always been able to convince Harry of what’s best for them and their family, she’s not sure how much longer she’ll be able to influence over him.
“Her biggest fear is still that it could get to the point where he has to make a choice between them or her.”
Kate has reportedly been acting as a “mediator” between the two brothers. The insider claimed: “(She’s) desperate for them to make up and feels the feud has gone on for far too long.
“She’s been doing whatever she can to not only make William see that, but also to persuade him to open up the lines of communication again with his brother and try to heal the wounds.”
