After more than 10 days of tension, Meghan Markle broke down.

A lofty image?

unexpected hugs

His gestures of affection and closeness to the British people could be the best way to close the wound caused by his veiled accusations of racism in the interview he gave on American television.

But far from this result, they are generating controversy;

And Queen Elizabeth, in her 70-year reign, never went beyond an austere handshake.

flowers with message

Something as pleasant as the tokens of affection that Meghan Markle collected in the form of flowers has also become a double-edged sword.

When the environment is hostile, nothing is more appreciated than a friendly hand, especially that of your partner, but the image of Meghan and Harry always hand in hand has been more than questioned;

unresolved tension

Prince William's invitation to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex has been the first step in breaking the tense relationship between the brothers and their wives.

But between both couples there is no complicity or show of affection;

on the contrary, the tension is palpable when they appear together.

And the attitude of both sisters-in-law is very different in this regard: Kate walks alone, always a few steps ahead of her;

Meghan seeks the support of her husband, constant contact.

And the British have long since chosen the poise and security of the Princess of Wales.
