Prince William and Kate Middleton’s growing distance from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle has sparked renewed speculation, with royal expert Hilary Fordwich shedding light on the matter during an interview with Fox News Digital. Fordwich highlighted how the Prince and Princess of Wales have intentionally steered clear of the Sussexes in recent months.
According to Fordwich, “Prince William and Catherine are known to be glad to retain a distance from Meghan Markle, thereby avoiding any potential entanglement in future controversies.” She suggested that this approach reflects the couple’s steadfast commitment to their royal duties and their future roles as King and Queen Consort.
“Stability and service are paramount to the couple as they anticipate their lives being dedicated to both,” Fordwich explained. This unwavering focus on their responsibilities to the Crown seems to contrast sharply with the path Harry and Meghan have taken since stepping back from royal duties in 2020.
Fordwich also addressed the Sussexes’ recent projects, such as their high-profile deal with Netflix. She suggested that these ventures are at odds with the values upheld by the monarchy. “There isn’t anything furthering either of those values in Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s deal with Netflix,” she remarked.
The royal expert further described Harry and Meghan as “a huge liability” to the monarchy, arguing that their actions and public ventures conflict with what the institution represents.
While William and Kate continue to focus on their roles within the royal family and their dedication to service, their distance from Harry and Meghan has become increasingly apparent. This separation underscores the differing paths the two couples have chosen, with William and Kate emphasizing duty and tradition, while Harry and Meghan prioritize independence and commercial opportunities.
As speculation around the relationship between the two couples continues, Fordwich’s insights offer a clearer understanding of the motivations behind William and Kate’s decision to maintain their distance from the Sussexes. For the Prince and Princess of Wales, stability and service to the Crown remain their top priorities, leaving little room for distractions or controversies.
