Meghan Markle has reportedly been "warned" by insiders to "watch what she says" about Kate Middleton after it's revealed she could talk more about her life in the royal family.
Back in January, sources claimed that the Duchess of Sussex was planning to write a memoir, following in her husband's footsteps.
The claims were quickly shut down but more recently, it's been said that Meghan and her team are pitching ideas to Netflix following the success of her and Prince Harry's self-titled docuseries, which went on the streaming service earlier this year.
Following Harry and Meghan's reports of racism and bullying within the Royal Family, it was reported that Kate pushed for the infamous line: "Recollections may vary" in the royal family's statement following the racism accusation.
Sources claim that Kate is now "not afraid to fight fire with fire, having already broken the golden royal rule of 'Never complain, never explain.'"
They added that she is "fiercely protective" of her family and she's willing to fight for them "even fit makes her less popular with certain people."
"In this case she felt a polite but strong message needed to be sent back to the Sussexes - namely that there were other interpretations and views about certain events and instances which the world world needed to know in no uncertain terms," the source told Closer magazine.
The insider then issued a warning towards Meghan, explaining that she need to be "extremely careful with accusations" in the wake of her new potential projects and reported memoir.
"Kate won't hesitate to keep sticking up for the royals as well as herself. She's shown an incredible amount of tolerance and bitten her lip but even she can only be pushed so far and this latest revelation is seen as a clear message for Meghan to back off and watch what she says about Kate moving forward.
The insider continued: "The bottom line here is Kate isn't afraid to take the gloves off and play dirty if she has to. It's about self-preservation and not being walked all over."
