Meghan Markle tried to 'calm things down' between feuding William and Harry

Meghan Markle tried to 'calm things down' between feuding William and Harry, according to reports.

Talk of a rift was rife last year between William and Kate and Meghan and Harry.

It culminated in the Duke and Duchess of Sussex moving out of Kensington Palace, leaving the Cambridges behind, to set up shop in Windsor.

It has been claimed the tensions were sparked when William questioned whether Harry was too hasty in marrying  Meghan last May, less than two years after they met.

But royal sources say the rift was healed earlier this year.

And it's now been suggested by one royal commentator that Meghan may have played a role in healing the divide.

Speaking on Yahoo UK's 'The Royal Box', royal correspondent Emily Andrew claimed the brothers did not see each other in private for six months after the wedding last May, despite living next to each other at Kensington Palace.

She said: "Kate and Meghan are both professionals, they're sisters-in-law, they don't have to be best friends and apparently they were playing Scrabble together at Christmas at Sandringham.

“Someone told me actually that it was Meghan who had tried to make peace, [she] had tried to calm things down between Harry and William."

The relationship between William and Harry has reportedly improved since the Sussexes moved out of Kensington Palace.
