Expert predicts 'royal battle' between Meghan Markle, Kate Middleton for 'crown'

Meghan Markle and Harry have returned to Britain with their children Archie and Lilibet

A royal expert has predicted "royal battle" between Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton to win the public over following the Duchess return to Britain.

Speaking to the Fox News Digital, royal expert Ian Pelham Turner said, "Recently I suggested that there was going to be a battle royal between Meghan and Kate over who would eventually win the public crown for the Queen of hearts," he said.

The royal expert further said that William ‘felt comfortable’ with Harry in US because the Prince of Wales could constantly control the narrative for being the future King without any “brand interference from his brother Harry."

Turner went on saying, "In doing so, his vision of the future has allegedly brought disagreement with King Charles to a point where there has been talk of very heated rows.

“So, I am not sure there are cool heads with William and Kate who may be hoping that behind the scenes attacks on Meghan again criticizing any aspirations she may have of building a career in Britain may bear fruit."

Experts have also claimed that Kate and William are sending a warning to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Meghan and Harry have returned to Britain with their children Archie and Lilibet last month.
