There was a time when Sophie was considered a potential ally of the Sussexes, being the first Royal member to visit them after the birth of their son, Archie. However, sources claimed that during the Commonwealth Day service in 2020, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex received a cold shoulder from the royal family, with Sophie, now the Duchess of Edinburgh, seemingly snubbing Megan and giving her a scathing look.
In the recently unearthed video on Tick Tock, there is a moment where Harry and Megan are seated in Westminster Abbey, with Edward engrossed in conversation with Sophie, who pointedly looks away. Sophie then turns her attention to Megan, who immediately lowers her head, leading to the video caption suggesting that Sophie's intimidating gaze scared Megan.
It is apparent that Megan was aware of Sophie's disliking towards her, which might have been the reason she was more interested in chatting with Edward. Observers noted Edward's relaxed and easygoing nature, and some suggested that Megan might have been trying to seduce him to gain an ally against his beloved wife.
Megan's alleged history of flirting with other men, such as Howie Mandel in the past, has been a subject of criticism. Some claim she does so for money, favors, or simply out of spite and control. Many of these incidents have been caught on camera, including rude behaviors like cutting into the row of chairs to get ahead of Sophie or blaming Sophie for Angie's color.
Royal expert Russell Myers pointed out how Sophie's senior status rose after the Sussexes stepped down as senior Royals and moved to California. He mentioned that the younger generation, particularly the Instagram generation, is likely to become as fascinated with Sophie and Edward as they were with the Sussexes. There are also similarities between Megan and Sophie's interests, particularly in their work on girls' education and combating violence against females in Africa.
This unearthed footage and the interactions between Megan and Sophie shed light on the complexities within the Royal family and the dynamics among its members.
