Prince William Furious at Harry’s Wife Meghan for ‘Copying’ Princess Diana

Prince William is reportedly fuming over the actions of his brother Harry’s wife, Meghan Markle, who he believes is obsessively imitating their late mother, Princess Diana. The latest incident that has set him off occurred when Markle donned a purple Northwestern University sweatshirt, reminiscent of one that Diana famously wore back in 1996. According to insiders, William has largely remained discreet about the ongoing saga with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, but this particular move has pushed him over the edge.

A source revealed that Meghan’s homage to Diana’s fashion has stirred up tension within the royal family and particularly irked William. “While Meghan might think she’s honoring Diana, it actually hits a sore spot for William,” the insider shared. “He’s sensitive about his mother’s image and feels she deserves to be remembered in her own right without Meghan trying to channel her.”

The fallout from Meghan’s style choices has not gone unnoticed online, with critics coining the hashtag #MeghanMarkleAmericanPsycho, highlighting the disdain some feel towards her actions. The source explained further, “William is really struggling with this. He wishes Meghan would let his mother’s legacy be. It’s already inviting harsh scrutiny and questions about her intentions.”

Another point of contention for William is how Harry and Meghan continue to reference Diana in their various projects. In their Netflix documentary released in 2029, a clip features Markle introducing her son Archie to a photo of Diana, calling her “Grandma.” Although Meghan may believe these references stem from a place of love, the source indicated that they open her up to criticism, especially when they are intertwined with her lifestyle brand, As Ever.

Meghan has faced accusations of emulating everything from Diana’s jewelry to her iconic outfits. Surprisingly, despite the constant comparisons, her latest ventures haven’t gained much traction among audiences. The relaunch of her lifestyle brand, As Ever, follows a string of setbacks—including a trademark dispute that ended with her initial brand, American Riviera Orchard, being denied.

As the drama unfolds, it’s clear that Markle’s attempts to align herself with the iconic figure of Princess Diana may not play well in the long run—leaving fans and critics alike wondering if this is the best strategy for her new show and ventures. Meanwhile, as William grapples with these feelings, he finds himself caught in an ongoing saga that evokes both anger and sadness around his mother’s memory.
