Meghan Markle's 1-Word Trooping Joke Triggered Awkward Silence With Kate Middleton in 2018

3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jun 14

Summary

  • Harry wrote in "Spare" that Meghan Markle answered Kate Middleton’s question about her first 2018 Trooping the Colour with a one-word joke — "Colourful" — and an awkward silence followed.
  • The moment came during Harry and Meghan’s first major public appearance as a married couple, just weeks after their May 19, 2018 wedding and return from their honeymoon.
  • Harry said tensions soon widened: Kate wanted an apology over Meghan’s "baby brain" remark, while disputes also touched bridesmaids’ dresses, Easter presents and seating at the wedding.
  • Those grievances were never fully resolved, and Harry wrote that a later attempt by the couples to clear the air was going nowhere.
  • The account resurfaced as Trooping the Colour was held again on Saturday without Harry and Meghan, who last joined the parade in 2019 and now live in California.
