It looks like there really was no chance for these two women to ever become friends from the get-go. According to Prince Harry’s new book, Spare, Kate Middleton gave Meghan Markle the side-eye when she suggested that Prince William use some of her homepathic cures to get rid of his cure. Here’s what you need to know.
In Spare, Harry writes about a dinner party that the two couples had and how he wanted to talk to his brother Prince William about an engagement ring he had in mind for Meghan, but the Prince of Wales at the time was down for the count with a cold. Harry writes, “I’d cleared all this in advance with Willy. I’d asked my brother if I could have the bracelet, and told him what it was for. I don’t recall him hesitating, for one second, in giving it to me. He seemed to like Meg, despite his oft-cited concerns.
Kate Middleton Dissed Meghan Markle’s Homeopathic Cold Cures
Kate seemed to like her too. We’d had them over for dinner during one of Meg’s visits, and Meg cooked, and everything was good. Willy had a cold: he was sneezing and coughing, and Meg ran upstairs to get him some of her homeopathic cure-alls. Oregano oil, turmeric. He seemed charmed, moved, though Kate announced to the table that he’d never take such unconventional remedies.”
He continued, “We talked about Wimbledon that night, and Suits, and Willy and Kate weren’t brave enough to admit to being superfans. Which was sweet. The only possibly discordant note I could think of was the marked difference in how the two women dressed, which both of them seemed to notice. Meg: ripped jeans, barefoot. Kate: done up to the nines. No big deal, I thought.”
Many royal fans and critics commented on the matter with, “Those are hardly homeopathic remedies. Perhaps to Westerners. But to the rest of the world and through scientific research, turmeric is a proven anti-inflammatory. Gosh, England stole everyone’s spices and still doesn’t know how to use them,” along with, “I take Turmeric daily for inflammation, and while Oregano Oil isn’t my go-to herbal remedy for feeling under the weather, studies have proven it to have powerful antibacterial properties. I work in the Natural Foods and Supplement Industry in the US, and both of these products are very popular with your typical Natural Foods/Wellness shoppers here- but you are correct that the general population of Westerners likely doesn’t know how well-studied some of these herbs are.”
