Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton might share the same space after four years. According to an insider, King Charles has allegedly invited Prince Harry and his wife to the royals’ annual trip to Balmoral. It could reportedly make the “Suits” alum believe that she holds “all the cards” now. Meanwhile, the decision has seemingly not sat well with the Princess of Wales. For those unversed, Markle has not met Middleton and Prince William since Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in 2022.

Insider claims Meghan Markle feels confident amid Balmoral talks

Meghan Markle might feel victorious over the Balmoral invite, but Kate Middleton reportedly doesn’t feel the same. An insider told Closer that King Charles seemingly wants his whole family together during the royals’ annual trip to Balmoral. His July reunion with Prince Harry, Markle, and their kids, Archie and Lilibet, proved that the king would like his second son back in his life.

Meanwhile, the source claimed that Charles’ invite has made Markle more confident. It was said that the Duchess of Sussex never thought about being invited to Buckingham Palace or Balmoral. She reportedly found this situation “symbolic.” “It’s Meghan’s revenge on Kate, in a way. Her message to Kate is, ‘You’ll never win, and you can’t keep us out.’ Meghan believes she now holds all the cards,” the insider said.

On the other hand, Middleton seemed not to like the idea of having the Sussexes on the trip. According to her, the royal family has reportedly been “hijacked.” Furthermore, the source stated that the future queen would seemingly not want a “showdown” with Markle. It was reported that the Wales couple didn’t want to “see the Sussexes welcomed back into the fold.” “They see them as troublemakers and people who can’t be trusted. While Meghan sees the invite as a triumph, Kate struggles with the prospect of sharing the royal stage once again,” they added.
