I’m already feeling nervous about the potential conflict – real or imagined – between the Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry’s girlfriend Meghan Markle. The British media really wants some kind of story there, good or bad. Bad stories will probably sell more copy, but good stories will also set up a potential comparison between Markle and Kate. I’ve been saying for two weeks that I seriously doubt Harry cares about his brother and sister-in-law’s opinions about his love life, but the tabloids absolutely care. We’ve previously heard that Kate was “keen” to “see what Meghan is all about,” which is still funny to me. We also heard a rumor that Kate and Meghan did meet while Meghan was in London last week and staying with Harry at Kensington Palace. So what now?

She has been staying with beau Prince Harry in his home of Kensington Palace and it seems that Meghan Markle is already making a good impression on the in-laws. The Prince’s sister-in-law the Duchess of Cambridge is reported to be ‘thrilled’ over the couple’s new romance.

New Zealand’s Woman’s Day claim a royal source told them that: ‘Kate is thrilled that Harry has finally found a girlfriend who looks like being a keeper. She only wants the very best for her lovely brother-in-law – and Meghan looks like she fits the bill.’

In their report the magazine also claims that the Duchess is doing ‘all she can to support Meghan’ as she eases into her royal relationship.

However, the palace is yet to make any official comment on the Duchess’s relationship with the actress. MailOnline has contacted the Kensington Palace for a comment.

My guess is that Meghan and Kate probably did meet last week, but it wasn’t anything major. Like, it was probably just a breezy introduction. That being said, Woman’s Day usually doesn’t know anything about anything. Kate probably is not “thrilled” about Meghan. But never underestimate Kate’s ability to play the long game. This is a woman who waity’d for a decade. Kate takes the long view, and Meghan has only been around for what? Five months, maybe. The Villainess Duchess is probably petting her sausage curls and plotting as we speak.
