According to a report from OK!, the Duke of Sussex has identified that how Meghan and Kate get on together is central to any potential return to the UK.

Kate edited photo scandal

Kate apologised to fans over the edited photo last Monday (March 11). It followed claims that a Mother’s Day image shared online of her and her kids appeared to contain ‘inconsistencies’. The pic was later withdrawn from distribution to the press by agencies.

She said at the time: “Like many amateur photographers, I do occasionally experiment with editing. I wanted to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday caused.

“I hope everyone celebrating had a very happy Mother’s Day.”

However, an insider reportedly noted to Page Six: “If Harry and Meghan had ever encountered the same issue they would have been annihilated.”

Additionally, the source said the “same rules do not apply to both couples”.

“This isn’t a mistake that Meghan would ever make. She has a keen eye and freakish attention to detail,” they went on.
