Scobie said the couple had long felt that other members of the royal family, such as Middleton and her husband, Prince William, they received much more support from the palace aides against the UK tabloids than they did. However, his exasperation “came to a head in January 2020.”

“Well, if we’re releasing any statements now, then maybe K can finally make things clear about me. [sin hacer llorar a Kate]”allegedly 39-year-old Markle emailed a palace attendant.
However, one source claimed that his request, like many others, was ignored. “The Duchess of Cambridge, they told him [a Meghan], she should never be drawn into idle gossip, “Scobie wrote.
In the two-hour interview with Oprah Winfrey that aired on Sunday, Markle claimed that it was Kate who made her cry, days before the former American actress’s 2018 royal wedding to Harry, 36, but the media leaked that it was Meghan who made Middleton cry.
But Harry’s wife said her partner took responsibility, she apologized, I brought her flowers. “It was a very tough week of the wedding. And she was upset about something, but it was hers, and she apologized. And she brought me flowers and a note, apologizing. She did what I would do if she knew I hurt someone, right, just to take responsibility for that. “
According to Scobie, Markle had long urged palace attendants to set the record straight, as the British press intensified the rumor. They constantly told him that it would not be possible.
“What was hard to get over was being blamed for something that not only didn’t I do, but it happened to me,” Markle told Winfrey later. “Everyone in the institution knew it was not true … I am not going to share that article about Kate in any way to discredit her. I think it is very important that people understand the truth … She is a good person. And I think that A lot of what I’ve seen develop is this idea of polarity, where if you love me, you don’t have to hate it. And if you love it, you don’t need to hate me. “
“They really seemed to want a narrative of a hero and a villain,” added Markle. Scobie noted that palace attendants were most helpful to other members of the royal family when it came to addressing the press. He noted that officials even issued a statement to deny that Middleton used Botox in July 2019, a rumor that was immediately debunked by the palace.
