Prince Harry has once again stirred global attention by revealing the text messages exchanged between Meghan Markle and Catherine, Princess of Wales, during the tense days leading up to the Sussexes’ 2018 wedding. The moment appears in his memoir Spare, where he revisits one of the most controversial disagreements inside the Royal Family. What had long been reduced to tabloid whispers suddenly resurfaced with surprising clarity.
Messages that deepened the tension
According to Harry, the issue began when Catherine texted Meghan to say that Princess Charlotte’s bridesmaid dress did not fit properly. She reportedly said it was too big and that her daughter cried while trying it on. The dresses had been made from early measurements, but Meghan reminded her that a tailor had been waiting at Kensington Palace all day to make any alterations. Catherine, however, supposedly insisted the dresses should be remade entirely.
