Meghan Markle's relationship with the Princess of Wales, Kate, continues to be one of the most talked about chapters in the British royal family.
Although it has been years since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped down from their royal duties, rumors surrounding the two women's relationship have not stopped.
This time, royal analyst Jennie Bond believes that there is a possibility that the Duchess of Sussex will hardly look favorably on: the day Kate becomes Queen, when Prince William succeeds King Charles to the throne.
According to the analyst, the main point of friction concerns not only the personal relationships of the two women, but also their position within the monarchy.
As she argues, Kate is the future queen and this means that she will always occupy a higher position in the hierarchy than Meghan, regardless of their relationship.
What will annoy Meghan Markle the most when Kate becomes queen
She points out that if Meghan is at an official royal family event in the future, protocol will require her to bow to Queen Kate. This is a detail that, according to Jennie Bond, will probably not be pleasant for the Duchess of Sussex.
The discussion around royal protocol had been reignited in 2022, after the screening of the documentary "Harry & Meghan" on Netflix. There, Meghan revealed that she did not know she would be meeting Queen Elizabeth II for the first time and described her embarrassment when Prince Harry asked her if she knew how to bow.
The scene in which she acted out that moment caused strong reactions, as many considered it to be satirizing a long-standing royal tradition.
The relationship between Kate and Meghan has been under the microscope of the media since the period before Harry and Meghan's wedding in 2018. The incident with the bridesmaids' dresses, which the two sides have described differently, is considered by many to be the beginning of the coldness between them.
Since then, their appearances together have been few and far between, while after the Sussexes left the Palace, the distance between the two families became even greater.
Despite occasional rumors of a rapprochement, there has been no public indication that their relationship has been restored. At the same time, Prince William and Kate continue to prepare for their future roles as king and queen, which is expected to further strengthen their position in the British monarchy.
