Meghan Markle and Victoria Beckham knew each other thanks to the long-standing friendship between their respective husbands.

Notably, and David Beckham became friends after forging a connection at an FA reception in 2010.

The friendship between the royal brothers and the football legend blossomed thereafter.

Beckham and his wife got the chance to attend and 's royal wedding in 2011.

The Beckhams remained constant fixtures in the royal's life, hanging out with them and snagging invites to grand occasions.

In 2017, Harry introduced his longtime friends to his then-fiancée Meghan Markle.

The next year, Harry and Meghan picked out a house very close to the Beckhams' country house in Cotswolds.

The move enabled them to become neighbours to their best buds.

That same year, the Beckhams were among a lucky few to snag invites to Harry and Meghan Markle's royal wedding.

However, the reported absence of the showbiz power couple at the evening after party of the newlyweds raised eyebrows at the time given how deep their friendship ran.

Months after Harry and Meghan's wedding, details explaining a possible reason why the Beckhams received no invite surfaced.

A news outlet attributed this to a burgeoning rift between the two brides which took form in 2017.

According to the source, it involved an interview the Duchess of Sussex granted in May 2017.

During the interview, Meghan reportedly said she would not wear Victoria's designs because they did not fit her well.

Her attempts to set things right also failed.

It was reported that Meghan declined to wear the numerous custom-designed outfits the brand sent her.

A source claimed Victoria reached out to her personally to turn things around.

The two women seemed to have another fallout in 2018, just before Meghan Markle's royal wedding.

This time, sources reported the actress turned on Victoria over free dresses.

According to the sources, Meghan expressed her desire to wear clothing from the posh brand.

However, Victoria offered the attire to the Duchess at a discount rather than at no cost.

The former songstress' refusal to give out her clothes for free due to her personal policies drove a dagger between their then-flourishing relationship.

Going further, the source claimed Meghan turned on the designer right after that.

As a result, she accused David Beckham's wife of selling stories about her to the press.

The alleged leaked stories involved the royal's visit to Victoria's beautician pal's heir at Chapman.

Her allegations forced David to place a call to his friend and set things right.

While the awkward call seemed to clear the air and resolve their differences, sources confirmed their relationship remained strained thereafter.

That explained the Beckhams' absence from the Sussexes' after-wedding party as per the reports.

In other news, and Meghan Markle have come under fire due to their alleged desires to be branded centre-stage material at the Queen's Jubilee.

Royal expert Katie Nicholl made this claim in her interview with True Royalty TV's The Royal Beat.

She began her observation by offering some insight into the real reason Prince Harry and Meghan Markle preferred flying back to staying for the entire celebrations.

She explained, I honestly think it's because they knew that they wouldn't be in that front row.

And why did they leave the royal family?

They left because they weren't in the front row.

I believe that's why they weren't at the other celebrations as they did not have centre-stage seats.

The Sussexes and the Beckhams are royalties in their own rights.

Perhaps, that explains why the media have strived to find a means of connecting them by digging out facts that suggest an ongoing feud.

Here, we discuss everything we know about the reported feud between Meghan Markle and Victoria Beckham and why their familial friendship may become threatened.

While the families appear closer than ever, newer developments may revive old wounds, especially when it involves something as sensitive as the ongoing royal family scandal resulting from Meg's sit.
