Kate Middleton is concerned of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s well-being.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been in hot water following their South Africa tour. The trip was deemed to be successful until they declared an all-out war against the press by suing Mail on Sunday, The Sun and The Mirror. According to an insider, Middleton is worried of her brother-in-law and sister-in-law’s well-being because she hates seeing them “so miserable.“

“Kate’s concerned about Harry and Meghan’s well-being,” a source told Us Weekly.

Although the Duchess of Cambridge was affected by the controversies plaguing Prince Harry and Markle, she wanted to remain in the background. “She tries to stay out of the drama,” the source added.

A different source had the same revelations to In Touch. The insider said that Middleton sympathized with Markle, but the royal mom of three wanted to avoid drama and conflict and was keeping herself out of the situation.

“Kate has enough on her plate looking after three kids and fulfilling royal duties. She barely has a moment to herself and tries to avoid drama and conflict at all costs,” the source said.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have been criticized by Markle’s supporters for not speaking up for the Duchess of Sussex. Some even accused Prince William and Middleton of profiting from the hatred Markle received.

One online user claimed on Twitter that Prince William and Middleton were praised for doing nothing. The future king and queen consort were reportedly applauded and admired because the ill treatment Prince Harry and Markle received had canonized them. The same netizen added that Middleton had been reduced to a mere “clothes rack.”

Meanwhile, there are rumors that Middleton reached out to Markle to offer support. However, according to some online users, the former actress didn’t need Middleton’s help because she knew what she was doing and everything was part of her game plan.

Middleton was reportedly a threat to Markle, so she separated Prince William and Prince Harry. Prior to Markle joining the royal family, Prince William, Middleton and Prince Harry were inseparable that they were called “the royal trio.”
