Begrudged, was jealous of (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

envied

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'begrudged' is the first definition.
('envy' can be a synonym of 'begrudge')

'was jealous of' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for envied that I've seen before include "Was jealous of (someone)" , "Was jealous of, begrudged" , "Desired" , "Begrudged, coveted" , "Looked greenly" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and The Irish Times.
