Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton’s sister Pippa reportedly don’t get along for some reasons.

The Duchess of Cambridge and Duchess of Sussex were seen together watching Wimbledon. Surprisingly, Middleton’s sister, Pippa, unexpectedly joined them. Royal fans were happy to see the trio.

However, there were reports claiming that Markle and Pippa were feuding before their joint appearance. Also, although they appear amicable at Wimbledon, it’s unlikely that they’ll be close friends despite their similarities.

“The irony is that Meghan and Pippa are just so much alike that it may be causing tension. They both love the spotlight and media attention,” Robert Arissen said.

Also, Pippa reportedly sees Markle as someone hurtful to her sister Kate because the Duchess of Sussex wants her own spin on the monarchy. Pippa is not fond of Markle, so their smiles and laughter at the tennis tournament were probably for the cameras only.

Aside from Pippa’s loyalty to her sister, there were rumors that she had a beef with Markle. An insider said that Markle attempted to turn Pippa’s sister-in-law Vogue Williams against her.

“Pippa is now outwardly furious and speaking her mind publicly about her dislike for Meghan. Pippa has had mutual friends turn against her because of Meghan and her rumours and her ‘divide and conquer’ mentality towards their social circles, which cross over,” an insider said.

“Vogue Williams originally heard rumours that Pippa thought she was too low class to join their clique. Pippa would never think that way,” the source added.

Pippa and Vogue had already talked about the rumors and realized that the whole thing was just a misunderstanding. However, Middleton’s sister was reportedly certain that Markle was behind it.

An insider said that Pippa is “more than capable” of handling Markle. However, she will never be seen encouraging Prince Harry’s wife to visit her at her Chelsea house.

“At the end of the day, there is a cordial friendship but an enduring closeness between Pippa and Meghan is never going to happen,” the insider said.
