Pippa Middleton report sparks fresh criticism of Kate Middleton

Royal fans often remain engaged in online fights with supporters of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.

A large number of them turned against the former American actress after British tabloid media started publishing stories about a rift between Meghan and senior members of the royal family shortly after her marriage.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s decision to step down as working royals and settle in the United States intensified online attacks on Meghan and Harry.

Most of the accounts appeared to be supporters of Prince William and Kate Middleton, the future king and queen. 

 Meghan and Harry are mocked and criticized by a faction of royal fans every time they make a public appearance or launch an initiative. And the couple’s fans, although fewer in number, give a tit-for-tat response to attacks on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Sussex supporters have also ruthlessly attacked Prince William and Kate Middleton over the years, blaming the Prince and Princess of Wales for Harry and Meghan’s departure from the UK. There has been no let-up in attacks on Kate Middleton even after she was diagnosed with cancer.

Recently, critics were handed a new opportunity to target the Princess of Wales after a report claimed that she was not on speaking terms with her sister, Pippa Middleton. 

 The report suggested this happened after Pippa was blamed for going on vacation following Kate’s cancer diagnosis.

According to the report, when confronted, Pippa defended herself by saying she didn’t think Kate was ill in the traditional sense. 

 While the veracity of the claims made in the report is not confirmed, critics of Prince William and Kate Middleton have widely circulated it online with sarcastic comments targeting the Princess of Wales.
