Kate Middleton’s uncle, Gary Goldsmith — the brother of Kate’s mother, Carole Middleton — told Closer magazine that William’s wife is a “brilliant arbiter and peacemaker” who can hopefully help repair royal relations following Harry and Meghan Markle’s explosive claims about the family.
“The harsh truth — in my opinion — is that if Harry doesn’t get a grip and stop this self-indulgent episode, there will soon be no common ground or relationship to rebuild,” he told the publication.
“But if anyone can bring peace to the royals, Kate can,” he added. “Kate is a brilliant arbiter and peacemaker. Every bone in her body is about making friends and doing the best she can … She’s trying to mediate.”
In March, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry gave a bombshell interview to Oprah Winfrey, where they laid out claims including allegations of racism in the palace. Harry also took digs at Prince William and then his father, Prince Charles, in a subsequent podcast interview with Dax Shepard that made The Duke of Cambdrige furious.
