Meghan Markle’s estranged half-sister Samantha claims she is selfishly dividing the royal family just like she broke apart her own.

Meghan fled back to Canada and Harry is locked in crisis talks with Her Majesty and his father Prince Charles.
Samantha has been a frequent critic of her half-sister since before her wedding in 2018, to which she was not invited and their father Thomas didn’t attend, and now claims to be vindicated.
‘We all felt very ghosted… and I said if she’ll do this to our family, she’ll do this to yours,’ she said on Sunrise on Friday.
‘The world mocked me and [said] I was jealous and bitter but I was just being very honest and saying, I love her, she’s my sister, but humanitarians and diplomats don’t behave like this.’
Samantha Markle said she saw division forming through reports about a rift between Harry and his brother Prince William caused by Meghan, and that she was selfish to not to repair it.

The bitter half-sister, who was investigated by American police for allegedly cyber bullying Meghan, claims the couple were effectively taking money from the royal family and leaving.
‘It’s really insulting and I think quite hurtful and I’m shocked that this is happening to the British royal family,’ she said.
‘I can say I told you so… but it’s hurtful for our family to see this. It’s unconscionable, I don’t understand how she could have allowed this to happen with no remorse.’
Samantha Markle said Harry and Meghan’s claims of wanting privacy, ‘financial independence’ and to step back from the spotlight as hypocritical.
‘I think she knew very clearly what she was getting herself into,’ she said.
‘You don’t go on the red carpet to celebrity gatherings and at the same time say you want your privacy.
‘It seems as though she’s enjoying the attention, so I don’t agree that suddenly they want to go off and be private.’
Samantha Markle claimed the couple were happy to be in spotlight when people were saying nice things about them, but then demand privacy when criticised.
‘It’s dodging a lot of responsibility. They’re adults, they knew what they were getting themselves into and they made choices,’ she said.
