Kensington Palace is trying to mitigate the rumored rift involving Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle.

According to Ellie Genower, a journalist for Express, Kensington Palace has launched a hunt for the “mole” who has been leaking information on Middleton and Markle’s rift. It remains unknown who the person is, but the palace is already taking action to stop the leak.

Prince Harry and Markle are reportedly very uncomfortable with the issues that they are determined to stop it. The Duchess of Sussex’s estranged father, Thomas Markle Sr., is also not happy about the reports. He was hurt that his “sweetest” daughter was trashed and bashed. In fact, he attacked the palace for the unfavorable reports about his daughter.

“I’m beginning to believe she’s a victim of some sort of sick British sport where you put someone on a pedestal then throw as many stones as you can to knock them off,” Markle Sr. said.

“All this is happening when she’s expecting her first child. Instead of support, she’s getting nothing but flak from so-called Palace sources blowing nasty gossip and innuendo into huge so-called stories,” he added. “They’re nothing but snobs and their behaviour towards her is a disgrace.”

According to an insider, Middleton and Markle’s “ghastly row” began last year over the holidays. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge invited the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to their house at Prince Charles’ request. The gathering was supposed to bring the fab four closer. Unfortunately, it didn’t end up the way the future king wanted.

According to Jo MacFarlane of Daily Mail, things turned sour when Markle arrived and was judged to be "downright rude." Middleton approached her sister-in-law and they had a conversation.

“Kate had a quiet word with Meghan. It escalated rapidly after Meghan complained to Harry that she had been ‘told off,’” the insider said. “He took her side, while William defended Kate, who was five months pregnant with Louis and certainly didn’t want this sort of confrontation.”

Prince Harry and Markle were initially set to move to a bigger apartment in Kensington Palace. However, they opted to move to Windsor instead because they reportedly didn’t want to live next to Prince William and Middleton. However, another source claimed that Middleton and Markle have no problems and that the issue is really between the brothers, Prince Harry and Prince William.
