“Meghan did want to have her show air before Kate’s event, which is why November was being talked about, but she pushed for it to ideally air as close to Together At Christmas as possible. That way, if there are any similarities in tone, it will seem like Kate is copying Meghan, not the other way around.”
Kate, meanwhile, hasn’t made any comment on the unfortunate clash of events with her estranged sister-in-law.
But the recent revelation that A-list stars, including Kate Winslet, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Hannah Waddingham, are participating in Together At Christmas, proves that the Princess Kate’s event will have some serious celebrity firepower attached to it. This year’s theme is ‘love in all its forms’.
“Kate would never try to one-up Meghan, but the facts speak for themselves,” our source adds.
Meghan’s special features guest appearances from tennis player Naomi Osaka and American chef Tom Colicchio.
While Kate, 43, is not focusing on Meghan’s program, her husband, the Prince of Wales, is not quite so forgiving.
