Kate Middleton reportedly reached out to Meghan Markle after she admitted in a new documentary that she’s not OK.

Speaking about the effect negative media stories were having on her life, Meghan told ITV’s Tom Bradby;

“Not many people have asked if I’m OK. But it’s a very real thing to be going through behind the scenes.

“I’ve really tried to adopt this British sensibility of a stiff upper lip. I’ve tried, I’ve really tried.

“But I think that what that does internally is probably really damaging.”

Now a royal source has said that Meghan’s sister-in-law Kate contacted her with some words of wisdom after the interview aired.

According to royal author Philip Dampier, Kate sympathised with the duchess.

“Kate feels sorry for her and knows that Meghan is struggling,” he told Express.

“[She] has told Meghan that every royal – including herself – goes through a bad patch with the press but the important thing is to learn by mistakes, move on and get through it.”

He added that he hoped Harry and Meghan didn’t decide to leave the UK .

“It would be a disaster if Harry and Meghan quit and lived abroad – William and Kate would be devastated.”
