Prince William and Kate Middleton have reportedly been left feeling "resentful" for having to "pick up the slack" after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle left their royal duties behind.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex left the royal family in 2020 to lead the rest of their lives in Montecito, California and have had a strained relationship with William and Kate since. An insider has revealed that it's partially down to the "extra workload that's been handed to them" since their co-workers ditched them.
"Prince William and Kate are feeling incredibly resentful towards Meghan and Harry for leaving them to pick up the work they dropped when they moved to the States," the source said. "The extra workload that's been handed to them is huge. It's given them even more responsibility, but also had a huge impact on their marriage and family life, and at time it can feel like they are cracking under this relentless pressure.
"With less time at home together and having to spend more time apart, they feel constantly torn apart in different directions and they insist that wouldn't be happening if Harry and Meghan hadn't abandoned their royal duties," the insider told Closer magazine.
The admission comes after reports claimed the Prince and Princess of Wales are said to be eyeing up making it big in America, with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry set to have new competition across the pond. The couple are said to be in the midst of submitting a trademark application in the United States.
With it also being reported that the Waleses will partake in various royal engagements around the world to promote the Royal Family. PR expert Andy Barr from 10Yetis.co.uk has revealed exclusively to The Mirror that Meghan and Harry would be "jealous" of the connections and opportunities William and Kate would be presented with should they decide to crack America.
"I love brand Meghan and Harry but I do think that were Kate and Wills wanting to crack America, as rumoured, they would do so with far greater ease and speed than their power couple rivals," he revealed. "Whilst Harry and Meghan have a powerful and well established network of celebrity friends and 'fixers', there is no substitute for being an actual, fully paid up member of the Royal Family.
"The global interest and intrigue in the British Royal Family means that they are guaranteed crowds wherever they go and whatever they do."
