According to reports, Meghan Markle has cut ties with her siblings and father after tying the knot with Prince Harry in 2018. While she hasn’t been on speaking terms with her father Thomas Markle, as well as her brother, Thomas Markle Jr., and sister Samantha Markle, Meghan’s dad recently pointed out a very “cruel” family snub from the Duchess of Sussex.
Meghan Markle’s Issues With Her Siblings
Thomas Jr. and Meghan reportedly haven’t been on speaking terms for over a decade. The family feud between the two has recently been re-ignited as Meghan’s brother repeatedly hits her with insults online.
Meanwhile, Samantha launched a libel suit against her sister for an interview Meghan conducted in 2021 with Oprah Winfrey.
Still, the case was dismissed by a Tampa, Florida judge as Samantha “failed” to identify any statements that supported her claim.

Did Meghan Markle really pull away from her biological family, or did they pull away from her? That’s what a lot of royal fans can’t help but wonder as there’s heavy speculation online that there might have already been a lot of trouble within the Markle family before Meghan even became a royal. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
The Truth About Meghan Markle’s Estrangement From Her Family
The truth about Meghan Markle’s estrangement from her family is something that fans have long tried to figure out.
The Duchess of Sussex herself has said very little about the trouble she’s had with her father, Thomas Markle, and her step siblings.
But some suggest that there were problems way before Meghan met Harry and that the Markles just became incredibly jealous after she officially became a royal. Things, of course, haven’t been the same since then.

After Buckingham Palace revealed the shocking news that King Charles III has cancer, his youngest son Prince Harry flew to London to see his father. His wife, Meghan Markle, and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, did not fly in with him.
Harry reportedly chatted with his father for about 30 minutes at the king’s Clarence House residence. Just over 24 hours after his arrival in the U.K., the prince was at the Heathrow Airport to return to Montecito. The quick turnaround has a royal author convinced that Meghan didn’t want Harry and the king’s reunion to last long.

Another day, another book on the British royal family. After the drama surrounding Omid Scobie’s Endgame and claims in a King Charles III biography comes yet another tome with bombshells. This time, it’s royal biographer Ingrid Seward’s My Mother and I, about the king and his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II. Excerpts ahead of the book’s release include bombshell claims about everyone from the late monarch and Princess Diana to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Here are just a few.
1. Royal biography bombshell: Prince Philip warned the queen about Meghan Markle
According to an excerpt of Seward’s biography published by the Daily Mail, Prince Philip, who died in April 2021 at the age of 99, wasn’t exactly a fan of the Duchess of Sussex.
While Queen Elizabeth “approved” of Meghan “from their very first meeting,” Seward wrote, Philip had reservations. “One of the few wary of succumbing to her charm offensive,...

A new royal book claims Queen Elizabeth wasn’t thrilled with Meghan Markle‘s wedding dress. It wasn’t the demure style of the gown the royal family‘s leader was against, but the color, calling white “flamboyantly virginal” for a divorcee.
Queen Elizabeth questioned Meghan Markle’s wedding dress color
Meghan Markle opted for a white wedding dress when she tied the knot with royal Prince Harry on May 19, 2018, at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor. She wore a Waight Keller-designed dress, a British designer who was the creative head of Pringle of Scotland and Chloé before joining Givenchy.
However, in a new book by Ingrid Seward titled My Mother and I, Queen Elizabeth wasn’t thrilled about Meghan wearing white. Elizabeth’s traditional view led her to believe it wasn’t a proper color for someone who was divorced.

King Charles III summed up Prince Harry’s hacking lawsuit against a British tabloid with two words. In Spare, the Duke of Sussex’s 2023 memoir, he recounted speaking to his father about the lawsuit, which has since ended (more on that ahead). Plus, how he responded.
Charles called Harry’s hacking lawsuit a ‘suicide mission’
Beyond unflattering passages about fellow royals in Spare and what drove him and Meghan Markle to relocate to the U.S., Harry revisited a tense conversation he had with his father and brother.
Specifically, the one that took place after Prince Philip’s funeral on April 17, 2021, where the now-king and now-Prince of Wales met him at Frogmore Gardens near Windsor Castle.
The same one where William used his and Harry’s “secret code,” and their father pleaded with them not to make his final years “misery.”

Rumors abound that Meghan Markle is considering a political career. However, how much of this is just speculation, and what are the facts? A royal commentator claims Meghan doesn’t have a “thick enough skin” for the “judgment and fact-checking” of the cutthroat world of politics.
Just how realistic is Meghan Markle’s pursuit of a political career?
Royal commentator Kinsley Schofield wonders how realistic the idea of Meghan Markle exploring a political career is. Yet, she reveals that more than one domain name has been registered to the Duchess regarding some political involvement.
Schofield believes that Meghan lacks some “pretty critical characteristics” of being a politician. “Loyalty? Ask Thomas Markle [Meghan’s father] and Jessica Mulrooney [her former best friend]. Commitment? She’s been divorced and quit the royal family.”
She continued, “She’s not a team player. She would have to give up her title. Thus, I don’t think she has thick enough skin...

Thomas Markle Threatens To Sue ‘Cruel’ Daughter Meghan Markle For Keeping His Grandchildren From Him
Meghan Markle’s estranged father, Thomas Markle, has issued a public plea to his daughter, asking to meet his grandchildren.
Though Meghan and Thomas have not spoken in five years, Thomas has expressed his desire to meet her children, Archie and Lilibet, and even suggested that he would sue his daughter if she did not grant his wishes.
During an interview with Good Morning Britain, Thomas likened himself to King Charles, the children’s paternal grandfather, with whom Meghan and Prince Harry are also estranged.
“I still haven’t seen my grandkids,” he explained. “And that’s what this is about. I want to see my grandkids, and I think the king would like to see his grandkids, as well.”
Thomas added that Prince Harry and Meghan’s choice is a “cruel thing to do to a grandparent, not just to me but to the king of England.”

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle haven’t been on good terms with either of their families since the couple wed back in 2018. Now, Harry and Meghan are living in California with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, and the only family member they have a close relationship with is Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, though there could be a few other members of Meghan’s family whom she remains close to.
One royal expert thinks that Harry and Meghan’s strained relationship with their family actually shows hypocrisy because they claim to stand for things they “never apply” in their own lives.

It’s no secret that Meghan Markle hasn’t always been on great terms with her father’s side of the family. When she and her now-husband, Prince Harry, first started dating, the press wasted no time digging into Meghan’s life and her half-sister Samantha Markle wasn’t shy about trying to tear down the Duchess of Sussex any time she had the chance.
Now, reports have come out that Samantha is supposedly suing Meghan over comments Meghan made in her both her 2021 Oprah Winfrey interview and her 2022 Netflix documentary with Harry, where the husband-wife duo highlighted the difficulties they faced with the media during their time in the royal family.

Meghan Markle, who married Prince Harry back in 2018, once had a close relationship with her father, Thomas Markle. Though Meghan’s parents divorced when she was young, she has said in the past that they always co-parented well, and her father is largely responsible for her love of show business. Thomas worked as a lighting director in Hollywood, and Meghan would often accompany him on set.
Fast forward to just weeks before their wedding, the father-daughter duo’s bond was ultimately severed over dishonesty. Thomas never walked his daughter down the aisle, and he has yet to meet either of Meghan’s two children. Plus, he hasn’t always had the nicest things to say about her. Now, though, Thomas is begging to ‘fix’ things with his daughter.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been enjoying a much different life from the rest of the royal family since leaving the United Kingdom for California back in 2020. They settled into a beautiful home in Montecito where they are now raising their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Archie was born in the U.K. and had a chance to get to know his relatives (though he won’t remember the meetings) while Harry and Meghan were still living over there during the first year of his life. Lilibet, however, has yet to travel the U.K. and has actually never even met Harry’s family. Now, the two kids will not be attending King Charles’ coronation in May, which has some feeling “sorry” for the royal pair.

However, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex didn’t reveal the contents. Why, especially considering Harry’s frankness in Spare and recent interviews? It might have to do with privacy laws.

More details have been released about that heated exchange between Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle about bridesmaids dresses back in 2018.
Prince Harry wrote in his tell-all new memoir Spare that Meghan was left “sobbing on the floor” amid her argument with Kate and the issues surrounding her father Thomas Markle ahead of her wedding to Harry in May 2018.
Kate apparently had some problems with Princess Charlotte’s bridesmaid dress at the time, with Harry sharing the alleged text conversation she had with Meghan.
The Duke of Sussex wrote in the book, “Meg didn’t reply to Kate straight away. Yes, she had endless wedding-related texts, but mostly she was dealing with the chaos surrounding her father.
“So the next morning she texted Kate that our tailor was standing by,” he added, according to the Mirror.
Harry revealed how Meghan had said the tailor’s name was Ajay and had been at “Kp”, aka.

In a statement, the newspaper said: “Columnists’ opinions are their own, but as a publisher, we realise that with free expression comes responsibility.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's decision to step back from their royal roles shocked many, but one of the more surprising things born out of their departure from the UK is their friendship with Tyler Perry. The revelation was revealed during the Sussexes' famous joint Oprah interview in March 2021, where they shared that Perry graciously let them and their son, Archie, stay in one of his LA homes after the palace cut off their security protection.
At the time, very little was shared about the trio's friendship and how it began. But Harry and Markle's Netflix docuseries, which released its final episodes on Dec. 15, delves more into how the three of them grew close with new accounts from Perry himself.

Harry and Meghan have officially pointed fingers at Buckingham Palace, specifically Prince William.
The second part of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s intimate and controversial docuseries has landed on Netflix, just a week after viewers may have felt underwhelmed — perhaps even disappointed — at a substantial lack of explosive content following the first three installments.
The pair have invited worldwide criticism while trying to shine a light on what became a catalyst in their separation from royal life, their debut totting up a total viewing time of 81.55 million hours in its first week — the highest number of any documentary released through the streaming giant. And they show no signs of surrender as episodes four through six plunge the Firm deeper into reputational bedlam, the current heir to the throne at its center.

The Exploited frontman Wattie Buchan collapsed on stage with a suspected heart attack mid-way through performing a show.
Buchan was playing a show in Bogota, Columbia on Saturday (10 December) with the band when he clutched his chest and fell down.
This would mark the second time the Scottish punk band’s frontman has suffered a heart attack on stage.
Back in 2014, the 65-year-old had a heart attack while performing a show in Lisbon, NME reports.
Since the recent collapse, the singer has been ordered to rest in a local hotel before returning to the UK, with the band forced to cancel the remaining dates on their tour.
“He tried playing on but had to actually stop a couple of songs until he eventually collapsed,” said the band’s spokesperson to Stv News, that he’d had a suspected heart attack.

One of the most curious things about “Harry & Meghan,” the new Netflix documentary about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex who stepped away from the British Monarchy, is how ordinary the couple appears. Harry chases after the kids in a stroller, Meghan feeds the chickens in the backyard of their Santa Barbara home. She calls him “H,” and he teases her about being late for their second date. The first three episodes that premiered Thursday appear to peel back the privacy of their lives for an honest glimpse into their world. But in reality, the series’ first three episodes feel like a close-up on previously seen footage.

Graham Norton kicked off his eponymous talk show Friday (9 December) night with a joke at the royal family’s expense.
The British royalty have been in the headlines this week thanks to the release of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s tell-all documentary series about their journey on Netflix.
“An especially big welcome to any new viewers who are watching us after cancelling their Netflix subscription,” Norton told his BBC audience before cutting to a photo of King Charles and Camilla, Queen Consort on a sofa.
“That’s ruined their Netflix and chill night,” the host added.
In the series, the couple, who stepped down as senior royals in 2020, give intimate interviews alongside “family and friends who’ve never spoken publicly about the couple’s relationship before”.

“An especially big welcome to any new viewers who are watching us after cancelling their Netflix subscription,” Norton told his BBC audience before cutting to a photo of King Charles and Camilla, Queen Consort on a sofa.
“That’s ruined their Netflix and chill night,” the host added.
In the series, the couple, who stepped down as senior royals in 2020, give intimate interviews alongside “family and friends who’ve never spoken publicly about the couple’s relationship before”.

Piers Morgan has claimed that Netlix’s Harry and Meghan documentary sees the royal couple trying to “brand Britain as a racist country”.
The TalkTV presenter gave his verdict on the much-anticipated Netflix documentary. The first three episodes were released on Thursday (8 December), with the final three to follow next week.
Morgan, 57, predictably had a lot of thoughts about the docuseries, which he shared to Twitter.
The former Good Morning Britain host wrote: “This is worse than Keeping Up With The Kardashians. Something I didn’t think was humanly possible.”
He continued to share his views on the series. An hour later, he wrote: “God, they’re so boring!”
Morgan also criticised the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for “trying to brand Britain a racist country”.
He went on to claim that Britain is the “most tolerant place in Europe”, pointing to the coverage of their engagement and wedding as supposed proof.

Prince Harry, Elton John and Elizabeth Hurley are among high-profile people that have launched a lawsuit against Associated Newspapers, the publisher of the Daily Mail, Mail on Sunday and Mail Online.
The legal action accuses the British publisher of “abhorrent criminal activity and gross breaches of privacy,” according to a press release issued Thursday by law firm Hamlins, which is representing Prince Harry and Sadie Frost.

The royal family is not pleased with Meghan Markle’s recent comments.
The Duchess of Sussex got candid this week when she shared certain aspects of her life as a senior working royal during both an interview with The Cut and episode two of her “Archetypes” podcast.
A source tells Et that the “royal family is disappointed by Meghan Markle’s latest comments in The Cut magazine and on her podcast. They are distressed that after stepping back from the royal family — claiming a need for privacy — she continues to publicize family matters in public,” the source says.
The source added that there is a “loss of trust” with Meghan.
During her interview with The Cut, the 41-year-old detailed her life in Montecito, California, and addressed the “bittersweet” transition that she and Prince Harry made after stepping away from royal life in 2020.

Australian morning show host Natalie Barr called Meghan Markle a “tosser” live on air following the duchesses’ recent tell-all interview.
“I couldn't even stomach getting through the whole article,” Barr, who is reportedly known for her candour, told her cohost David Koch.
“I think in Australia we’d say she’s just full of it. She’s a tosser. She’s a total tosser,” she continued.
“That’s how we would describe her. I just can’t… the way she speaks.”
Another host on the show, Edwina Bartholomew, suggested more sympathetically: “I think she has a very different narrative, perhaps, in the US to what is being accepted in the UK.”
Barr responded: “Or just everywhere in the world!” as Koch interjected: “That’s Eddie’s code for tosser!”
