As is typical of British royal weddings, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle invited several young family members to serve as bridesmaids and page boys. Among them, per The Guardian, were Prince George and Princess Charlotte. But just days before the wedding, Harry alleges that Catherine, Princess of Wales, launched a text war with his fiancée. As Page Six detailed, the prince claims that Kate wrote, "Charlotte's dress is too big, too long, too baggy. She cried when she tried it on at home."
Meghan sent a curt reply, pointing out that the royal tailor was on standby at Kensington Palace. "Can you take Charlotte to have it altered, as the other mums are doing?" the duchess suggested. This kicked off a lengthy exchange between them during which Meghan admitted to Kate that she was stressed because her estranged father, Thomas Markle, was too ill to attend the wedding.
Kate was allegedly unmoved, even trying at one point to have all the girls' dresses totally redone. Their tense back-and-forth left Meghan so distraught that she collapsed to the floor and wept. Harry noted that he included this anecdote as an example of how the press has spun stories to make him and Meghan look bad (via the Daily Mail). Though several outlets claim the princess is furious over Harry's book, she is following royal protocol by refusing to comment. In fact, Kate just celebrated her 41st birthday amid support from family and fans.
