After Prince William and Kate Middleton declined the invite to Lilibet’s birthday celebration, one of Meghan’s friends was left quite annoyed.
Garcelle Beauvais, a star on the television show The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, spoke to E! about the fact that the now-Prince and Princess of Wales skipped the birthday bash, branding Kate’s decision as “shady.”
“What’s going on is, ‘What a coincidence, we’re out of town; I’m washing my hair.’ There’s a little shade there,” Beauvais told E!.
“They can’t hold back the flight a couple of hours to meet Lilibet and Archie?”
Truth be said, family quarrels are never easy on anyone involved, and sadly, the “battle” between Harry and Williams means distancing from their nieces and nephews as well.
Royal biographer Tom Quinn claims Harry is ‘devastated’ about the ongoing family feud.
“We know that Harry’s deepest upset concerns not just his lack of relationship with George, Charlotte and Louis, but also his own children’s lack of a relationship with their cousins,” Quinn told the Mirror.
“Harry and Meghan would love to get round the problem – they would love it if the cousins could meet regularly and have a positive relationship as they grow up, but they cannot see a way to do it while they themselves, Harry and Meghan, are estranged. Harry has said that he hopes the cousins can at least be friends as adults.”
On June 4, Lilibet turned three and her birthday celebration was rather low-key.
People Magazine reported that the Sussexes invited their closest family and friends, as well as some of Lili’s friends to their Montecito mansion.
Harry and Meghan tend to keep their children out of the spotlight, yet they are said to plan to bring them them on future tours.
“Meghan is acutely aware of what a great look this will be – the charming royal couple with their charming royal children will attract the sort of publicity that Harry and Meghan crave, especially now that they are so determined to be billionaire entrepreneurs,” Quinn told the Mirror.
The royal expert added: “While Harry and Meghan go on with their increasingly prominent royal lives, Kate and William are left floundering and Meghan and Harry know it.”
During their most recent trip to Nigeria, which angered the members of the Firm because it looked like a royal tour, Meghan engaged in a conversation with some pupils and shared some fun facts about her daughter.
“Interestingly, so our daughter, Lili, she’s much, much tinier than you guys. She’s about to turn three. And a few weeks ago she looked at me and she would just see the reflection in my eyes. And she said ‘Mama, I see me in you’. Oh, now she was talking really, literally,” Meghan said, as per the Mirror.
“But I hung onto those words in a very different way. And I thought, yes, I do see me and you, and you see me and you, but as I look around this room, I see myself in all of you as well.”
The Duchess also revealed that Lilibet’s “favorite class” was “singing and dancing,” most likely because of “all the jumping around.”
