Meghan Markle Demands Hollywood Publicist Amid Bitter Feud With Kate

Meghan Markle is desperate to do damage control amid rumors she and Kate Middleton’s relationship is continuing to deteriorate behind the scenes.

“Meghan wants to hire a Hollywood publicist,” a source exclusively told RadarOnline.com. “She’s losing trust in her advisors and feels they are hanging her out to dry.”

The situation recently came to a head after numerous reports about Markle, 37, acting rudely. In one instance, the bossy bride is said to have made the Duchess of Cambridge cry during a fitting for little Charlotte’s bridesmaid dress before the wedding.

On another occasion, she reportedly snapped at Middleton’s staff.

In an incredibly rare move, a Kensington Palace rep issued a denial about the staffing slight and other stories going around: "This never happened.”

“Meghan demanded that the palace comment and defend her,” the source explained to RadarOnline.com. “They don’t usually respond but she was freaking out, saying if they don’t respond she will.”

The source also noted Markle is upset that her new husband, Prince Harry, isn’t going on TV to defend her.

“Harry’s lovestruck," an insider previously told RadarOnline.com. "But you can tell even he is getting exasperated with the way she’s steamrolled over his life.”
