Harry adds that Kate had “problems with the way Meg was planning her wedding. Is there something about a boys’ party? He was going back and forth.”
Meghan allegedly texted the Princess of Wales, “Not sure what to say. If the dress doesn’t fit, please take Charlotte to see Ajay. He’s been waiting all day.”
Kate replied, “Okay.”
When he got home, Harry wrote, he found his wife “crying” on the floor.

“I don’t think it’s fair of her to go into details [the fight]Because she apologized. And I forgave her. What was hard to get over, the Duchess said at the time, was blaming something I not only did, but that happened to me. And the people who were part of our wedding party would go to the outreach team saying, “I know this didn’t happen.”
