Did Meghan Markle make Princess Kate cry or vice versa? Finally, the tailor involved in the bridesmaids dispute brings light into the darkness. He spoke for the first time on the occasion of Prince Harry’s memoirs.
London – Prince Harry (38) takes his biography, which recently landed on the book shelves with a loud bang, as an opportunity to clean up with the wedding drama that took place between his wife Meghan Markle (41) and his sister-in-law Princess Kate (41). Because nobody else was there when they exchanged blows, it went back and forth for years: who made whom cry? Now the tailor reports for the first time: In fact, almost three years later, the man who was involved in the bridesmaid’s quarrel, quite unexpectedly, sheds light on the matter.
The tailor involved, Ajay Mirpuri, was not surprised by the tears
Ajay Mirpuri, 45, reveals exclusively to Dailymail that he is not surprised tears broke out – and is dismayed that the excitement overshadowed the big day. But from the beginning: What really happened in the run-up to Meghan and Harry’s dream wedding on May 19, 2018 at Windsor Castle? Kate and Williams daughter Charlotte (7) should scatter flowers in the white Givenchy dress. Distraught, Harry reports, after trying on little Charlotte, Kate texted that the dress didn’t fit.
“I sympathize with all of them because you don’t want the kids to go out on the big stage in an ill-fitting dress – and they did,” says luxury suit and dress designer Ajay Mirpuri. However, he reveals that he and three employees sat through three pre-wedding nights to work around the clock at Kensington Palace and Windsor Castle after realizing that none of French fashion house Givenchy’s six bridesmaid dresses fitted.
Kate and Meghan’s SMS traffic – and why the tailor is only now reporting
Prince Harry was apparently upset that initial reports of the argument focused on Kate being in tears. Over the years, there have been different versions of who made whom cry. He used his memoirs as an opportunity to present his view of things.
In Spare, Prince Harry writes that his sister-in-law, Kate, texted Meghan four days before the wedding, saying, “Charlotte’s dress is too big, too long, too baggy. She cried when she tried it on at home.”
According to the book, Meghan instructed her to seek out the tailor who had been on call at Kensington Palace since 8am, but Kate insisted “all the clothes need to be re-sewn”.
Meghan told Kate she was stressed about her father Thomas Markle and the wedding, which Kate understood, but the conversation continued to be “back-and-forth”.
“I’m not sure what else to say. If the dress doesn’t fit, please take Charlotte to Ajay. He’s been waiting all day,” Harry wrote of Meghan saying. “Fine,” Kate reportedly replied.
Mr Mirpuri spoke about his role for the first time after Prince Harry detailed his and Meghan’s version of the dispute with the Duchess of Cambridge over the dresses in his book Spare, which was officially released today.
“If this book hadn’t come out, nobody would have known it was us. But if it saved the day, then it saved the day and I wish them the best of luck,” he told the Dailymail.
Ajay Mirpuri: ‘They faced a problem like everyone faces at a wedding’
“But yes, weddings are stressful at the best of times – and especially one at this high level; you have to respect that. They were faced with a problem that everyone faces at a wedding, with last-minute glitches. I can understand everyone getting upset when the clothes don’t fit – it’s nerve wracking.” We just put our heads up and said, ‘Now we’re here and we have to fix it so that Britain can do well that day.’
The Duke of Sussex was unaware of the incident at the time. “I came home a short time later and found Meg on the floor. Sobbing,” Harry writes in Spare. “I was horrified to see her so upset but didn’t think it was a disaster.” At first it wasn’t. Harry writes that the Princess of Wales came by the next day with flowers and a card to apologize. Givenchy was not prepared to make a statement. If she Press is to blame for the fact that the story took on a life of its own or whether the royals are behind it, as Harry suspects in “Spare”.we’ll never know.
