Prince Harry comes out in support of Kate Middleton against Meghan Markle?

Prince Harry has come out in support of his sister-in-law Kate Middleton amid claims the Princess of Wales 'calculated move' threatens to deepen rift with the Duchess.

According to a report by the Closer, Kate Middleton’s Italy visit has threatened to deepen her rift with Meghan.

Archie and Lilibet doting mother is not happy with the future queen’s trip to Italy.

The close insider claimed, “From Meghan’s perspective, the timing couldn’t be more obvious. She and Harry have just come back from this great overseas trip [to Australia] and they’re finally getting some positive press, and suddenly Kate’s everywhere again."

Meghan does not believe for one second it’s a coincidence that right after she and Harry have a successful trip overseas, the source says and adds “Kate is taking one of her own.”

The insiders told the outlet, Meghan believes that the ‘royal machine’ is out to bulldoze her, especially at times when her success threatens the popularity of the family’s golden girl, Kate.

The sources went on to claim, “Meghan says this whole rollout of appearances and projects by Kate is a calculated move to shift the focus back onto her and the monarchy.”

Amid this development, Prince Harry, who was once very close to Kate Middleton, has come out in support of the Princess of Wales.

The source tells outlet, “Harry has been left trying to calm the whole thing down. He’s the first to accuse the Palace of unfair treatment but in this case, he’s not convinced it’s as cut and dried as Meghan’s assuming.”

“He’s pointed out that it’s very likely that this trip to Italy would have been planned months ago; that’s the way protocol for an overseas trip usually works,” the close insider said.
