It's no secret that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been at odds with different members
of the royal family for well over a year at this point, with disagreements stemming from
before the couple's royal wedding in 2018 and worsening over time, as detailed in their
interview with Oprah Winfrey back in March.
Harry and Meghan had previously been mum about what was going on behind closed doors that
ultimately caused them to make the decision to step down as senior members of the royal
family and move out of the UK.
Over the past few months, however, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have explained a bit
about their experience living under the monarchy's rule — and their reasons for walking away.
During his interview with Oprah, Harry openly admitted that his relationships with his father,
Prince Charles, and his brother, Prince William, had been strained for quite some time.
"My family literally cut me off financially."
Things are presumed to have gotten worse after Harry's decision to share his thoughts and
feelings on life behind palace walls.
"My father and my brother, they are trapped.
They don't get to leave."
There is one relationship, however, that hasn't been fleshed out, and it's something that's
now making headlines.
Evidently, Meghan and Camilla Parker Bowles aren't on the best of terms — and we may
know why.
Meghan and Camilla may have seemed to get along in public, and it seems that the two
really did get along swimmingly at one point in time.
However, a report from The Mirror suggests that the two women had a falling out in 2020.
The report indicates that Camilla has been upset with Meghan after a bit of a social
media snafu.
In March 2020, Camilla launched a new initiative to show support for domestic abuse survivors.
The report indicates that the royal family was told not to post on social media during
Camilla's speech, but Meghan apparently didn't comply.
In fact, the Duchess of Sussex reportedly took to Instagram – while Camilla's speech
was happening — to share a few photos of herself visiting the Immersive Storytelling
Studio in London.
At the time, a source told the Mirror that Camilla was upset by Meghan's actions.
The source told the tabloid,
"Of course it was known Harry and Meghan would be doing engagements this week, some privately,
but everyone was in agreement that Camilla's speech should take p­recedence.
­Unfortunately some people had other ideas."
We don't know if Camilla and Meghan have worked this out or if the two are still at odds.
At one point in time, Camilla and Meghan were thought to be close.
According to Express, the two women got along well and Camilla was said to be quite fond
of Meghan — though that report was from 2018.
In November 2019, royal biographer Sally Bedell Smith told Vanity Fair that Camilla could
really relate to what Meghan was going through.
Smith explained,
"Meghan could learn an enormous amount from Camilla.
I think Camilla is genuinely a kind person and while there are many differences between
the two of them, they have both been on the receiving end of some very negative press."
Ultimately, Meghan and Harry's decision to leave the UK — and their conflict with the
palace — caused a major divide, Express points out.
In August 2020, seven months after Megxit, a source told the Daily Mail that Camilla
had tried to help Meghan, saying,
"She was very sensitive to Meghan and provided her with support, advising her to ride out
the storm and that it would all pass – but ultimately Meghan didn't listen."
Camilla might not be the only member of the Royal Family to have mixed feelings about
Meghan these days.
Just about everyone remembers that Prince Charles walked Meghan Markle down the aisle
when she married Harry in 2018 after she had a falling out with her own father.
The gesture seemed to prove that Charles and Meghan had a special bond.
However, that bond now appears to be broken.
Following Meghan and Prince Harry's interview with Oprah, there's been a lot of hurt within
the royal family, and that's not something that's easily forgiven.
According to The Telegraph, Prince Charles had a particularly difficult time with it,
and Camilla has been there for him through it all.
A source told the tabloid,
"I don't think [Camilla] will ever forgive Meghan for what she's done to the Prince of
Wales."
It's not known if Camilla has had any contact with Meghan since Megxit.
