Sources say the Princess is ready to open the door to peace in hopes of easing family tensions
Catherine is said to be preparing for a significant personal shift as 2026 approaches, with reconciliation firmly on her mind and Meghan Markle at the centre of it.
According to a well placed source speaking to Heat World, the Princess wants the coming year to be defined by calm rather than conflict. To get there, she has reportedly accepted that she may need to be the one to make the first move and reach out to Meghan.
The insider claims this decision is not about sudden closeness or forgotten grievances. Catherine is described as still cautious and realistic about the past, with no expectation of a friendship. Instead, she believes that even limited common ground could improve the chances of William and Harry finding a way back to one another.
Those close to her say this approach fits her long standing role within her own family, where she was often the mediator growing up. Diplomacy, they add, comes naturally to her, along with a strong desire for harmony.
There is also a sense of personal responsibility behind the move. Catherine reportedly feels that if she is encouraging William to repair his relationship with Harry, she should be willing to do the same with Meghan. Opening a simple line of communication is seen as the first step, rather than a full reconciliation.
Ultimately, the source suggests this is as much about Catherine’s own peace of mind as it is about the wider family. She is said to feel that doing what she believes is right will allow genuine healing to begin, even if it happens slowly.
