Meghan Markle inadvertently disclosed a personal detail about Prince Harry during her guest judge appearance on MasterChef Australia, revealing he shares a dislike for spicy food with his estranged brother, Prince William.
While on a video call with her husband during the show, the Duchess of Sussex described the contestants as "amazing" and praised a hot sauce made by one chef. However, she suggested the sauce might be too much for Harry, noting, "There's a hot sauce and, you know, it's a sambal, and it is so good. I don't know, I think it might be too much for you, though. It's spicy."
Shared Trait Between Brothers
The revelation aligns with Prince William's own admission years ago on the radio programme Going Home with Vick and Jordan on Radio 1. The Prince of Wales, now 44, said, "I can't do too much spice, I start sweating. It's not attractive." His wife, Catherine, added she enjoys spice and adds extra to her curry.
This commonality suggests that despite their rift, both brothers have an aversion to spicy cuisine, while their wives, Meghan and Catherine, both favour spicier dishes. However, a reconciliation seems unlikely, as William and Kate did not meet the Sussexes during their recent UK visit.
Recent UK Visit
When Harry and Meghan returned to the UK earlier this month, they brought their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, to see King Charles and Queen Camilla. The meeting reportedly lasted about an hour, with details kept private. The Prince and Princess of Wales chose not to meet with the Sussexes during that time.
