Prince Archie's birthday highlights Meghan Markle's rift with Kardashians

Kris Jenner seems to have distanced herself from Meghan Markle and Prince Harry since a photo dispute erupted after her birthday party last year.

The Kardashian matriarch was among the first to follow the Duchess of Sussex when the former Suits actress returned to Instagram. 

Jenner was also prominent among those who liked each post shared by Prince Harry’s wife.But tensions emerged when the couple attended Jenner’s star-studded party and later asked her to remove their photos from social media.

The Kardashians complied, but the episode appears to have strained the relationship. Kim Kardashian later addressed the controversy in an interview, saying she understood the royal couple’s position but looked hurt by what happened.

Kris Jenner is now notably avoiding engagement with Meghan’s posts on Instagram. She did not like Meghan Markle’s post celebrating the seventh birthday of her son, Prince Archie.

The post contained two photos: one of Prince Harry with his newborn son, and another showing Archie walking with his sister, Princess Lilibet.

Yet the photos failed to draw a like from Kris Jenner.
