Princess Kate and Prince William’s new plans have surprised Meghan Markle, especially as there seems to be competition between the two royal couples.

Princess Kate and Prince William’s new plan has reportedly left Meghan Markle “shocked” amid the ongoing competition between the royal families, according to a source.

The Prince and Princess of Wales have officially applied for a trademark with the United States Patent and Trademark Office to launch their Royal Foundation charity in the US.

In their application, Kate and William included “healthcare services related to mental health.”

This means they will be competing directly with the Archewell Foundation, which was started by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle after they moved to the US in 2020.

Insiders say this could lead to a “turf war” in the US between the Waleses (Kate and William) and the Sussexes (Harry and Meghan).

A source told OK!: “Meghan was surprised when she learned that Kate and William want to do more work in America after trademarking their foundation.”

“Even though they’ve made a few trips to the US, it hasn’t really been their focus, and now Meghan feels like they might be stepping into her territory.”

Princess Kate and Prince William submitted their trademark application last May.

The application included various services for their Foundation, such as charitable fundraising, education, and “healthcare services related to mental health.”

They first applied for a trademark in 2012, when Prince Harry was still a working royal. However, that application was canceled in 2019, just before Harry moved to California.

On the other hand, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s Archewell Foundation aims to “show up, do good,” according to its website.

The foundation includes projects like The Welcome Project, which helps women-led programs that support Afghan refugees settling in the US.

The insider said, “Kate and William want their mental health foundation to be known all over the world and believe they can do a lot of important work in America since that’s where Kate’s interests are.”

“For Meghan, this feels like another setback. Harry is building his life in America and doing big events without her, like the one he attended in New York last week.”

“She knows how popular Kate and William are in the US, and since their own Hollywood popularity seems to be fading, she isn’t comfortable with them coming to America right now because they would likely steal the spotlight.”
