The source added: “Among some palace insiders, there’s a belief that the post was far more loaded than a simple anniversary tribute. By centering the images around celebrity guests, close confidantes, intimate moments with Harry, and her own mother, while barely acknowledging the Royal Family, it was viewed by some as a symbolic statement about where the Sussexes now place their emotional allegiance.
“Whether Meghan intended it to come across that way or not, many people inside the royal household felt the message was unmistakable. “It comes across as a massive dig at them, really.”
Among the images shared were photographs of the Duke and Duchess dancing and kissing during their evening reception, alongside behind-the-scenes moments from their official wedding portraits.
Elton John, who performed at the wedding, appeared in some photographs, while longtime Markle confidante Isabel May was pictured embracing Harry. Markle was also seen speaking with her mother, Doria Ragland, while the rest of the royal household was notably absent.
