JuliaRoberts’ half-

claimedtheactress
wasresponsible“She knows that the stories
about them not being
friends and rumours of
catfights benefit neither
of them,” says the source.
“They might not have a
huge amount in common,
but Kate has no issue with
Meghan. She wants them
to get along, not just for
Harry’s sake, but because
two royal sisters-in-law at
loggerheads wouldn’t be
good and Kate knows that.
For Kate it’s about keepingtheir relationship
professional and putting onashow of
togetherness.”
Another royal commentator,M nie
Bromley, says the rumours
are absolute nonsense.
“Despite the continued rift
being cooked up by the
trolls, Kate and Meghan
appear to be putting on a
united front. Almost all the
evidence suggests the two
women are getting along so
well. They are often seen
smiling in one another’s
company. This year for thesecond timeina
r o w, Kate and Meghan attendedWimbledon
together.”
That’s all fine and dandy,butwe’d love
to know Bromley’s
interpretation then
of their interaction at
the Commonwealth
Day service in London
recently, during which
Kate very definitely
seemed to snub
Meghan not once, not
twice but three times!
A video has gone viral
of Kate ‘completely
ignoring’ Meghan
before, during and
after the proceedings.
Twitter was ablaze with
comments. One user wrote: “That looks
painful,” while another commented: “This
really upset me. William and Kate, so rude.”
The video shows Harry and Meghan taken
to their seats at the church in London,
shortly before Kate and William joined
them in the row in front. Harry and Meghan
could be seen smiling at William and Kate as
they arrived
but Kate
appeared to
give Meghan
the cold
shoulder.
When the
service was
finished,
there were
no goodbyes
exchanged
between the

TheWimbledonTennis
Championships 2019Commonwealth Service at
Westminster Abbey in 2019for her decision to take her own life and
drove her to depression. In her final words,
Nancy said the abuse she received from the
Oscar-winning star was shocking. The two
were embroiled in a fight at the time Nancy
died of a drug overdose at the age of 37.
Her death was ruled a suicide. The former
production assistant on the TV show Glee
drowned in a bath surrounded by a mixture
of non-prescription and prescription pills. For
several months leading up to her death, Nancy
expressed her hatred for Julia in a number of
Tweets. In one, she said: “Just so you all know,
America’s Sweetheart is a b*****.” Another
read: “Do you want to be a fan of someone so
cruel? She’s not even that good of an actress.
Happy you totally f***** me.” A third angry
Tweet read: “My own family has abandoned
me.” Nancy was the daughter of Julia’s
mother, Betty, and her former stepfather,
Michael Motes.
Last is Halle Berry’s estranged relationship
with her half-sister Renee, who said the
actress cut herself off from their family.
Renee, the daughter of Halle’s late
father Jerome Berry and Edwina Taylor, said
she remained very close to Halle while they
were growing up but things had changed
drastically in the last five years. “I’m sad to say
it seems like she does not want anything to
do with us. I have not spoken to her in ages,”
said Renee. “I tried to contact her through
her website but no one got back to me. We
are desperate to understand why Halle is so
upset, why she feels she cannot be with us.”
One point of tension between the sisters was
their relationship with their dad. In previous
interviews, Halle said Jerome was abusive and
an alcoholic but Renee disputed this, saying
she remembers Jerome as being a good father.Halle Berry, Julia Roberts and Lindsay Lohan
