In her widely watched interview with Oprah Winfrey on March 7, Meghan Markle opened up about a difficult moment that occurred in the days leading up to her wedding to Prince Harry, involving Kate Middleton.

An Unexpected Conflict Over Flower Girl Dresses

Speaking candidly during the CBS special, Meghan revealed that she was brought to tears by a disagreement with the Duchess of Cambridge just days before her 2018 nuptials. The issue, she said, revolved around the flower girl dresses.

“A few days before the wedding, she was upset about something pertaining—yes, the issue was correct—about flower girl dresses, and it made me cry, and it really hurt my feelings,” Meghan said.

She added that, given everything else she was coping with at the time—including stress related to her father—it felt especially disheartening.

“I thought, in the context of everything else that was going on in those days leading to the wedding, that it didn’t make sense to not be just doing whatever—what everyone else was doing, which was trying to be supportive, knowing what was going on with my dad and what-not.”
