One is definitely not like the other. British Royal Family news says that if there’s one thing that Meghan Markle was definitely unhappy about during her time in the UK, it was the fact that she was being treated like a “second rate” princess compared to her sister-in-law, Kate Middleton.
Apparently, the Duchess of Sussex viewed herself as an equal to Kate, even though she’s the one who is married to the future king of England, Prince William. Here’s what you need to know.
Meghan Markle – Did Not Want To Be A ‘Second Rate’ Princess To Kate Middleton
According to royal author Tom Quinn, he says that the Duchess of Sussex apparently “hated the fact that she had to do what she was told and go where she was told” and that she was “a lovely person so long as she is never crossed.”
In his new book, Gilded Youth, Quinn also quotes a royal staffer who had this to say about Meghan Markle: “She is basically a very nice, smiley, super-positive person, but having always felt in control of her own destiny and with the sort of personality that strives to be the best, she suddenly found herself in an institution she found she couldn’t influence and that assigns roles to people that do not change.”
The tipster added, “She was dazzled by the worldwide fame that being a princess would bring, but she was shocked by the palace protocol and by the fact that she was not and never could be first in the pecking order. She hated the constraints and the rules; she hated being a second-rate princess— second to Catherine Middleton, I mean. She thought she would be living in Windsor Castle, for example, and just couldn’t believe it when she and Harry were given Nottingham Cottage in the grounds of Kensington Palace. Most of all she hated the fact that she had to do what she was told and go where she was told in the endless and to a large extent pointless royal round.”
