Meghan Markle's relationship with Prince William and Kate Middleton has never been an easy one.
"Meghan's recollection of meeting William and Kate for the first time rings very true to me, because I remember speaking to my sources when I was researching my book about those early meetings, and being told that William did find her a big personality, and clearly, Meghan said she went in for the hugs and everything else," Nicholl explained, referencing Meghan's less-than-warm first encounter with the pair.
"I think it also confirms what we've always known, which is that Meghan and Kate are two very, very different women, but that's why they were never going to be best friends," Nicholl said. "Meghan, she interpreted that as coolness, but as far as Kate is concerned, it's not natural for her to go and give a great big bear hug to someone that she hasn't met before.
"I guess I started to understand very quickly that the formality on the outside carried through on the inside," she says."That there is a forward-facing way of being. And then you close the door, 'Oh, great. OK, we can relax now.' But that formality carries over on both sides and that was surprising to me."
