The royal feud just found a new battleground—and this time, it’s a full-blown “mom war” between Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton. According to bombshell claims from Radar Online, Prince William and the Princess of Wales were left stunned after watching Meghan Markle’s recently resurfaced “Baby Momma Dance” video, which the Duchess of Sussex shared to celebrate daughter Lilibet’s fourth birthday.
The never-before-seen clip, filmed in 2021, showed Meghan and Prince Harry dancing inside a hospital room while awaiting Lilibet’s birth. Meghan captioned the video with: “Four years ago today, this also happened. Both of our children were a week past their due dates… so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn’t work – there was only one thing left to do!”
But while fans on social media were divided—some calling the moment “adorable,” others labeling it “cringe”—it’s the royal couple’s private reaction that has raised eyebrows.
According to royal sources, William and Kate were “gobsmacked” by the clip. “They couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw the video,” the insider claimed. “It looked like another cry for attention—and not one that aligns with the dignity expected of former senior royals.”
Insiders say the footage, which shows Meghan dancing to The Baby Momma Dance track, felt like a slap in the face to Kate, who reportedly reacted with quiet dismay.
“Kate’s privately told people that she wouldn’t be caught dead acting in such a vulgar fashion,” a source close to the family revealed. Known for her reserved and regal public image, Kate reportedly found Meghan’s hospital dance video “embarrassing” and unbecoming of someone still carrying royal titles.
William was reportedly “incredibly gallled” watching his younger brother act like a “goofy teenager” in a moment that many believed should’ve been kept private. Despite Prince Harry stepping down as a senior working royal in 2020, the Duke remains fifth in line to the throne—making every public move fair game for royal scrutiny.

“This isn’t just about a dance video,” a source explained. “To William and Kate, it reflects badly on the monarchy. Harry’s behavior—especially when it’s broadcast so widely—still impacts the Royal Family’s public image.”
With Kate recovering from cancer and maintaining a low profile, insiders say this new round of headlines has reignited long-simmering tensions between the royal sisters-in-law. What was once a quiet distance has now flared up into what some are calling a full-on “mom war.”
While Meghan’s supporters praise her for being open, relatable, and refreshingly unfiltered, critics say the video crosses the line into tacky and attention-seeking.
Meanwhile, royal watchers note that the contrast between Kate’s traditional approach to motherhood and Meghan’s more modern, social media-savvy image has never been more obvious.
And the timing couldn’t be worse with Prince Harry reportedly reaching out to the Royal Family ahead of the 2027 Invictus Games, any hopes of reconciliation seem dimmer than ever. Insiders claim that William and Kate remain wary, fearing further public embarrassment or private conversations being turned into content.
“There’s still a major trust issue,” one royal insider noted. “And videos like this don’t help.” Whether or not the dance clip was meant as a lighthearted memory or a strategic brand moment for Meghan’s image, it’s clear that the royal family isn’t dancing along.
Instead, what began as a personal celebration may have just poured gasoline on a fire the Firm hoped had burned out. And with the world watching every move, this latest royal rift might be the most personal one yet.
