Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle's relationship has been strained for some time, and a new biography reveals the extent of their ill feelings. According to royal author Rob Jobson, Prince William attempted to put on a "show of unity" within the family following Queen Elizabeth's death.

Meghan stood up to him and said, "Take your finger out of my face.
