But a source close to the duchess’s has revealed they may have patched things up – and could be working on a project together. During the unprecedented tell-all interview, Meghan claimed her sister-in-law had reduced her to tears prior to her wedding to Prince Harry in May 2018.

Meghan claimed in her interview with Oprah: “The narrative with Kate, it didn’t happen,” referring to how it was originally reported that Meghan had made Kate cry.

She added: “A few days before the wedding she was upset about flower girl dresses and it made me cry. It really hurt my feelings.”

The Duchess of Sussex said the pair made up following the incident.

She said: “It was a really hard week of the wedding.

“And she was upset about something, but she owned it, and she apologised. And she brought me flowers and a note, apologising.”

But one well-placed source told US Weekly the pair have been able to patch things up.

The source said: “Meghan and Kate are actually getting along really well and have been in touch more often.

“Meghan and Kate’s relationship was never that close. And now they’re closer than ever and working on their relationship for the sake of the family.”

Meghan announced her new 40×40 initiative on her 40th birthday earlier this month with a comedy video recorded with American comedian Melissa McCarthy.

The initiative is designed to encourage women to give 40 minutes of their time to help mentor someone in their community, and has been backed by a number of her celebrity friends, including Adele, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau and Stella McCartney.

In the video, Meghan says: “Because I’m turning 40 I’m asking 40 friends to donate 40 minutes of their time to help mentor a woman who is mobilising back into the workforce.

“Over two million in the US alone and tens of millions around the world have lost their jobs due to Covid, and I think if we all do it and all commit 40 minutes to some sort of act of service we can create a ripple effect.”

The Duchess of Sussex said in an accompanying statement: “I believe mentorship is one way to help women regain confidence and rebuild their economic strength, and for my birthday, I have asked 40 friends, activists, athletes, artists, and world leaders to help kickoff a global effort by contributing 40 minutes of mentorship to support women re-entering the workforce.

“With this time, I hope they each help someone advance a professional life on her own terms, and, I hope that they inspire countless others to give 40 minutes of their time as well.”

While Kate has not publicly offered her support, Princess Eugenie has posted on Instagram about the initiative.

However, royal expert Mikhaila Friel thinks it’s likely the Duchess of Cambridge could still join the effort.

She said: “I don’t think it was an intentional move,” noting that scheduling conflicts, Kensington Palace’s approval process and a host of other reasons could be why the duchess has not spoken publicly about the initiative as Princess Eugenie has.

She added: “There might be a reason she couldn’t have officially put her name down.

“But that being said, I don’t think that means that we won’t see her involved in some capacity.

“Prince Harry‘s cousin Princess Eugenie she actually posted on her Instagram that she was supporting the initiative.

“And her name wasn’t mentioned in the original press release, so it could be that Kate turns around and shows support in her own way down the line.”
