Royal Vetting: Meghan vs. Kate Double Standard?
3 Nov
Summary
- Meghan Markle allegedly bypassed royal vetting protocols.
- Palace reportedly feared upsetting Prince Harry.
- Kate Middleton reportedly underwent strict background checks.

Reports indicate a potential disparity in how Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton were treated prior to their royal weddings. Royal expert Rob Shuter claims Meghan did not undergo the same vetting process as Kate.
Sources suggest the Palace chose not to upset Prince Harry, who was reportedly eager to settle down. This led to a reluctance to enforce strict protocols for Meghan, unlike the thorough background checks reportedly conducted for Kate.
This alleged difference in treatment has raised questions about the royal family's approach to new members. Some suggest a fear of upsetting Harry may have led to compromised procedures for Meghan's integration.
