Buckingham Palace corridors are buzzing with revelations about a previously hidden royal rift that unfolded during Princess Eugenie's 2018 wedding celebration. According to insider sources, Sarah Ferguson was left seething over Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's conduct during her daughter's special day.
The Royal Power Play
While all eyes should have been on bride Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank, the Sussexes allegedly orchestrated a series of attention-grabbing moves that shifted focus squarely onto themselves. The tension reportedly began building long before the ceremony even commenced.
Timing and Tactics
Insiders reveal that Harry and Meghan's team strategically timed pregnancy announcements and other personal revelations to coincide with wedding preparations, creating what one palace aide described as "a calculated diversion" from the main event.
Fergie's Fury
Sarah Ferguson, known for her fierce loyalty to her daughters, was said to be particularly incensed by what she perceived as deliberate attempts to overshadow Eugenie's moment. "Sarah felt protective of her daughter's day and was furious that it seemed to become about Harry and Meghan instead," revealed a close family friend.
The Unwritten Rules Broken
The incident highlights the complex dynamics within the royal family, where unspoken protocols about supporting rather than upstaging fellow family members are considered sacred. The breach of these traditions reportedly caused lasting damage to relationships within the household.
Aftermath and Fallout
The wedding day tensions are now seen as a significant milestone in the deteriorating relationship between the Sussexes and other senior royals. The fallout from that day continues to resonate through royal circles, with some suggesting it contributed to the widening rift that eventually led to Harry and Meghan's departure from royal duties.
