Prince William is very upset about Meghan Markle wearing a purple Northwestern University sweatshirt because it looks just like one Princess Diana wore in 1996.
According to RadarOnline, William has mostly stayed quiet about Meghan and Harry, but this time, he is “seething” behind closed doors. A source said William is very protective of his mother’s memory, and Meghan copying Diana’s style has really bothered him. “He wishes Meghan would just let Diana’s legacy rest in peace,” the source explained.
Meghan has been accused many times of trying to look like Diana, from her clothes to her jewelry. She and Harry have also talked about Diana a lot in their media projects, which some people think is just for attention.
In their 2022 Netflix documentary Harry & Meghan, Meghan showed their son Archie a picture of Diana and said, “Hi, Grandma. That’s Grandma Diana.” Some people thought it was sweet, but others felt they were using Diana’s image too much.
Now, Meghan’s new lifestyle brand As Ever and her Netflix show With Love, Meghan are also bringing up Diana, which is causing more drama. Meghan’s supporters say she is honoring Diana, but critics believe she is trying to use Diana’s name to get attention.
William, who wants to protect his mother’s memory, is not happy about this. He probably won’t say anything publicly, but reports say he is getting more and more frustrated.
At the same time, Meghan’s business projects have had problems. Her previous brand, American Riviera Orchard, didn’t do well, so she had to rename it As Ever. Her Netflix shows have also had mixed reactions.
Even with all the criticism, Meghan isn’t stopping. She continues to connect herself to Diana. Meanwhile, William is struggling to deal with it quietly.
