It was a low key announcement, but one that formalised what royal watchers have anticipated for months and has left Kate heartbroken. The foundation set up by William and Harry 10 years ago to support their charitable work is no longer.
Now a royal source tells New Idea that the Duchess of Cambridge is so devastated at what she sees as the final step towards a complete division between her and William and his brother and wife, that she felt forced to flee.
“Kate has been left really rattled by her and Wills’ split from Harry and Meghan,” says a palace source. “She’s incredibly upset by the whole situation and can’t believe it’s come to this – and things have ended so badly between the four of them. This sort of public split is her worst nightmare come true.
“She took off to Balmoral to get out of the spotlight for a while and collect her thoughts. She feels like 2019 has just been one drama after another, and their public split from Harry and Meghan is the last straw.”
