A revealing video clip has thrown new light on the feud between Prince William and Meghan Markle, according to a Royal expert. Richard Eden, the Daily Mail’s Royal correspondent, analysed the footage during an episode of Reading the Royals on YouTube.
The video captures the Royal Family exiting church on Christmas Day in 2018, two years before Harry and Meghan quit their jobs as Senior Royals. The expert pointed out the “body language” on display, which he claimed made Royal observers “take notice” at the time, as it seemingly shows William ignoring Meghan.
Richard commented: “By Christmas 2018, the split was terminal and the footage we’re about to see really did make royal watchers sit up and take notice.”He added: “Look at the body language as they’re leaving church on Christmas Day in Sandringham. Meghan looks as if she wants to chat with Prince William, but he sort of turns away awkwardly and fiddles with his scarf.”
