Following months of constant rumors of tension between the two, Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton appear to be closer than ever, with new reports claiming that the Duchess of Sussex and Duchess of Cambridge have strengthened their relationship.
Royal expert Katie Nicholl tells ET that the royals’ latest outings together will “hopefully put to rest the rumors that Kate and Meghan don’t get along because they certainly look like two duchesses who had plenty in common.”

“There have been two major circumstances, which are very calculated and deliberate efforts to try and stem these rumors about a feud between the foursome,” Nicholl says of Kate, Meghan and husbands Prince William and Prince Harry. “We saw it at the polo match where William and Harry were obviously playing together. We hadn’t expected the duchesses to turn up with their children. The fact that they did is a wonderful treat for royal watchers, but I think those candid pictures were quite deliberately intended to snuff out those rumors of the feud between the foursome. And you saw them all very close, very happy, very comfortable with each other.”
Royal fans were then treated to another outing between Kate and Meghan. The two, along with Kate’s sister, Pippa Middleton, attended Serena Williams’ Wimbledon match on Saturday.
“You’re going to be reading stories about how the duchesses get on and I am told that both of them are making an effort to get along,” Nicholl adds.
Chrissy Metz Says She Met Her Boyfriend on Instagram
Chrissy Metz is once again proving the age-old saying to be true: “It all goes down in the DMs.”
The This Is Us actress swung by The Wendy Williams Show on Wednesday when she revealed that she has a new boyfriend she met via direct message on Instagram.
“I know, cute, right?” said Metz, 38. “As the kids say, ‘He slid into the DMs.’ “
“I get thankfully a lot of messages and I don’t always get to see them all,” Metz explained. “He had messaged a couple of times, very sweet but not obnoxious or weird. And then I was like, ‘Let me see if he’s cute. Oh, he’s cute! Okay, I guess I can respond.’ But I waited a little bit because you can’t be an eager beaver. And then I responded, and then we just sort of hit it off.”
“It’s a very new relationship. It’s very exciting,” Metz told Williams.
