Meghan Markle ‘became jealous of the Beckhams after bizarre move sparked feud’

Speculation has long been swirling about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s now seemingly frosty bond with David and Victoria Beckham.

And with the Beckhams being surprise guests as King Charles hosted a glittering state banquet during the Qatar state visit to the UK, one expert believes the move proves the showbiz couple’s friendship with the Sussexes is now over. Since rumours of a feud between the couples, David appears to have become even closer to Harry’s estranged royal relatives. In recent months, the ex-England football captain was named a King’s Foundation ambassador.

Meanwhile, just weeks ago, David also joined Harry’s estranged brother Prince William to unveil a brand new helicopter for the London Air Ambulance after a multi-million pound fundraising campaign.

And with the invitation to the state banquet, royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams says it is a clear sign the Sussexes are no longer aligned with the Beckhams, which may have been caused by a ‘bizarre move’. He told MailOnline: “The Beckhams, then considered friends, attended the Sussexes’ wedding in 2018 along with Hollywood stars who were not, yet they were not invited to the wedding dinner which was a bizarre misstep.

“Yet Meghan, who had visited the Beckhams in California before her marriage, had worn clothes designed by Victoria to promote her label as far back as 2013 and Harry and David Beckham had been friendly before he met Meghan.

“We know the Sussexes did not appear at their son Brooklyn’s wedding. The likelihood is that the Sussexes, Meghan in particular, became jealous of a couple who are not only among the world’s genuine high achievers but also who are clearly strong supporters of the royal family, including William.”
