Meghan and Harry’s ‘tactless jibe’ at Kate and William

Low blow, guys - by Milly Haddrick
  • 07 Aug 2019

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have always been vocal about their social justice causes, but Prince Harry's latest proclamation has been taken by some as a tactless jibe towards Prince William and Kate Middleton. 

WATCH: Meghan Markle political stance 'causing problems' for Royal Family

Rumours of a rift between the two royal brothers have been persistent for months now, and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's latest interview seem to suggest relations haven't gotten much better. 

Acting as a guest editor for the September issue of British Vogue, Meghan interviewed her husband, where the Harry made a point of saying he would only ever want two children due to the impact a big family has on the environment.

A bit awkward, considering the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have three kids. 

In a conversation with primatologist Dr Jane Goodall, Harry reveals that since the arrival of baby Archie he has put a lot more thought into the climate he wants his only son to grow up in. 

“I view it differently now, without question.

“I think, weirdly, because of the people that I’ve met and the places that I’ve been fortunate enough to go to, I’ve always had a connection and love for nature."

While a number of commentators made a point of saying that Meghan and Harry's carbon footprint wouldn't exactly be small (considering all the private jets), to take aim at Kate and William and there three kids - Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis - seems like a low blow. 

Meghan and Harry welcomed Archie Harrison into the royal family on May 6, 2019.
