Why did Meghan cry at her wedding?

Six or seven months after our wedding, the story came out that Meghan made Kate cry. I would never want that to come out about her. I kept it a secret. A few days before the wedding, she was upset about flower girl dresses. It made me cry and hurt my feelings. I thought it didn’t make sense to not be supportive, knowing what was going on with my dad. Meghan said there was no confrontation and that it wasn’t fair to get into the details because she apologized and she’s forgiven her. “What was hard to get over was being blamed for something I didn’t do. My wedding team even told my comms team, ‘I know this didn’t happen.’ I don’t have to tell them what happened, but I can say she didn’t make me cry. Everyone in the institution knew it wasn’t true. I’m not sharing that piece about Kate to be mean. People should understand the truth, but a lot of it came from the media. I hope she would have wanted that corrected. The Palace wouldn’t let anyone else say otherwise, and she’s a good person. I think what I’ve seen is that if you love me, you don’t have to hate her, and if you love her, you don’t need to hate me.
