Furthermore, Kate, 39, is said to have ‘taken the same approach as the Queen’ before the interview.

The journalist claimed: “I have been reliably informed she was even telling her friends before the Oprah interview that she did not think it was too late to ‘pull them back in’.”

‘Peacemaker Kate’

Ms Tominey also indicated a royal source had informed her ‘Kate’s natural instinct is to try to smooth things over’.

She did not think it was too late to ‘pull them back in’.

It is thought Kate was the first family member to speak with Harry at Prince Philip’s funeral.

She ‘held back’ as they strolled in order to facilitate conversation between William and Harry.

She wrote: “Despite the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s Oprah Winfrey interview, when Kate was accused of making Meghan cry during a bridesmaid’s dress fitting and failing to support her, Kate rose decidedly above it all.”

Additionally, reports claim Kate set any upset she may have felt about the Oprah affair to concentrate on helping heal any rift between Harry and William.

Elsewhere, Kate’s uncle Gary Goldsmith has inserted himself into matters. He told Closer magazine that Harry needs to reflect.

He said: “If you want an easy life, work it out privately and have a conversation respectfully. Don’t air it in public, it’s really hurtful.”

Gary continued: “If Harry doesn’t stop this self-indulgent episode, there will be no common ground or relationship to rebuild.

“However, if anyone can bring peace to the royals it’s Kate. She is a brilliant peacemaker. Every bone in her body is about making friends and doing her best. She’s trying to mediate.”
