Keen viewers of the Platinum
Jubilee celebrations have pointed out Meghan Markle’s reaction
to Kate Middleton as the Duchesses attended a service to honour Her
Majesty’s 70 years of service.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex
returned to the UK from their new home in Los Angeles for the Platinum
Jubilee celebrations, in what was their first public appearance with the
Cambridges since Megxit.
Although the Duchesses never
came face-to-face at Friday’s Service of Thanksgiving, royal fans couldn’t help
but notice Meghan’s “obvious” snub of Kate as she arrived at the
cathedral.
The eagle-eyed fans pointed
out that Meghan can be seen turning her head away from the Duchess of Cambridge
in an apparent refusal to look at her sister-in-law.
Taking to Twitter, royal
fan Kitty shared the BBC’s footage of the moment that the
Duke and Duchess of Cambridge entered the cathedral.
Captioning the clip, Kitty
wrote: “Did everyone notice the woman in the white hat (Meghan) turned her head to
the left when The Duchess of Cambridge was walking past…”
Fellow royal watchers were
quick to agree, with many saying they had also noticed the
“reaction”.
“Yes I did notice this,” wrote
one, while another agreed, “It’s very obvious too.” A third wrote: “Wow it is
obvious when you see it.” Agreeing, another added: “Top spot! She definitely
turned away!”
The Queen was not in
attendance after struggling with some ‘discomfort’ while attending the first day
of celebrations, Trooping the Colour of Thursday.
