Who is behind Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle's 'Diana' style?

Lady Di's legacy in the world of royal fashion remains undeniable and current. Her unmistakable style continues to exert a marked influence on the British royal family, especially her daughter-in-law, Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle. These two prominent figures, married to William and Harry, have evidently adopted the princess's signature style and accessories, making it clear how Diana's imprint persists in current royal fashion trends.

Omid Scobie's new book, Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy's Fight for Survival, opens a window into this world, showing how Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle have followed Diana's legacy in terms of fashion.

The author highlights that, since joining the royal family, Middleton and Markle have regularly replicated Diana's iconic looks, even using accessories that belonged to the late princess. According to Scobie, it's not surprising that Middleton and Markle adopt elements of Diana's style. However, the author suggests that this habit has gone beyond being just a fashion coincidence and has become something of an actual tradition.

The book, to which Page Six has had exclusive access, cites an internal royal source, who confirms that Diana's wardrobe choices are common topics of conversation between Harry, William and their wives. In this sense, the source reveals that specific images of Diana have sometimes been sought for inspiration from her style.

Scobie, however, points out a more disturbing aspect of this practice, suggesting that these stylistic decisions are orchestrated by the same system that, at the time, contributed to Diana's suffering.

The book not only focuses on fashion, but also on the dynamic between Middleton and Markle. Scobie details a strained relationship between the two, stating that Middleton has a mixed reaction when Markle is mentioned and that there has been almost zero communication between them since Harry and Markle's departure, known as Megxit.

The publication of Scobie's book, which is expected to cause a stir upon its release, comes at a delicate time, especially for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who according to some information are in a stage of reconciliation that could be affected by the revelations. from the book.
