Kate Middleton allegedly
‘burst into tears’ amid bridesmaid dress row with Meghan Markle, claimed Tom
Bower’s bombshell book.
In Revenge: Meghan, Harry
and the war between the Windsors, Tom wrote that Kate was irritated by Meghan’s
complaints and bullying accusations.
The author also alleged that
Meghan’s ‘insistence’ was ‘supported’ by her former BFF and mother of another
bridesmaid Jessica Mulroney.
“Some would say that Meghan
compared Ivy favourably against Charlotte,” he wrote.
Tom claimed that there was a
second argument “about the length of Charlotte’s hem – Kate felt it was too
short and anyway did not fit.”
He said that the Duchess of
Sussex ‘wouldn’t compromise’ and Kate became upset.
Kate burst into tears. Kirstie
Allsopp, a friend of Camilla, would later confirm that Kate was reduced to
tears by Meghan bullying her staff.
“After leaving that unhappy
scene Kate decided to make amends. She crossed the Kensington Palace corridor
and presented Meghan with a bunch of flowers. Kate also told Meghan not to
speak rudely to her staff. ‘That’s unacceptable.’
“What followed can never be
irrefutably established. In Kate’s version, Meghan slammed the door in her face
and threw the flowers in a dustbin.
“Meghan would tell Oprah
Winfrey that the tears were shed by her, not Kate, and the flowers were an
apology. ‘I think that’s where everything changed,’ Meghan rightly said.”
