Princess Kate has long been considered the quiet mediator in the Royal family dispute - but according to a new biography by Russell Myers, she eventually drew the line and ended her role as a mediator. The reasons why her patience snapped and the events that sealed the break sound more dramatic than one might think. Read on to find out the whole story!

The Turning Point: The 2018 Wedding

Myers depicts that Kate initially classified tensions as immature or stubborn, but Harry and Meghan's wedding in 2018 changed everything. Behind the scenes, distance grew; a palace source even spoke of "an agenda" and a "pretty toxic" atmosphere.

Palace Divisions and Exhaustion

Particularly, the Sussexes' treatment of staff weighed heavily on Kate. Myers reports of two camps within the royal household: those who were concerned, and those about whom complaints were constantly made. The constant grumbling exhausted and was unacceptable to Kate.
