Princess Beatrice Announces Pregnancy on Meghan and Harry’s Third Wedding Anniversary

Princess Beatrice, the granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II, announced on May 19, 2021, that she is expecting her first child with her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.

The announcement came on the same day as the third wedding anniversary of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, leading to speculation that the timing was not a simple coincidence.

Royal observers have long speculated that there may be tension between Meghan Markle and the York sisters, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice.

Fans claimed that Beatrice's announcement stole the thunder from Meghan and Harry, and royal commentator Duncan Larcombe suggested that the timing was intentional.

Meghan's relationship with Eugenie stretches back even further than her welcome into the royal family.

In her bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey, Meghan revealed that she had met Princess Eugenie before she had even started dating Prince Harry.

The two women were said to be close friends, and Eugenie was reportedly thrilled when Harry and Meghan got together.

However, their relationship took a turn for the worse when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced their pregnancy at Eugenie's wedding to Jack Brooksbank in October 2018.

According to the book Finding Freedom, Eugenie was upset that the couple had stolen her thunder and felt that they should have waited to share the news.

Investigative journalists Dylan Howard and Andy Tillett claimed that Meghan's decision to announce the pregnancy was a “huge social gaffe” that left Eugenie and her mother, Sarah Ferguson, furious.

The tension between Meghan and Eugenie reportedly continued when Eugenie wore an emerald tiara to her wedding, which Meghan had hoped to wear on her own special day.

Meghan's preferred diadem was the Greville Emerald Kokoschnik tiara, which is said to be worth £10 million.

According to the Daily Mail, Prince Harry used offensive language about the Queen's closest aide during a row about the tiara, prompting Her Majesty to call him for a private meeting.

Despite the tension between Meghan and the York sisters, one of Meghan and Harry's final acts as royals was to hand over their home at Frogmore Cottage to Eugenie and her family.

The couple had renovated the property, which was originally five separate homes, into a single residence for themselves and their son, Archie.

However, they left the UK and moved to the US, leaving Frogmore Cottage empty.

A source for Harry and Meghan said that the property continues to be their residence in the UK, but it appears that they have no plans to return.

The announcement of Princess Beatrice's pregnancy has reignited speculation about the relationship between Meghan and the York sisters.

While Meghan and Eugenie were reportedly close friends, it is unclear whether their relationship has been repaired after the tension surrounding Harry and Meghan's pregnancy announcement.

However, it is clear that Meghan and Harry have moved on from their time as senior royals and are focused on building their new life in the US.

In conclusion, the announcement of Princess Beatrice's pregnancy on Meghan and Harry's third wedding anniversary has led to renewed speculation about the relationship between Meghan and the York sisters.

While Meghan and Eugenie were once close friends, their relationship reportedly soured after Harry and Meghan's pregnancy announcement.

Despite this, Meghan and Harry have moved on from their time as senior royals and are focused on building their new life in the US.
