Samantha Markle Claims Their Family Was Not Good Enough for Her Estranged Sister Meghan

Meghan Markle’s half-sister, Samantha Markle, alleged that the Duchess of Sussex cut her and their father off after the royal wedding because their family wasn’t “fabulous enough” for her.

As the world is still analyzing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey and its aftermath, the duchess’ half-sister Samantha Markle is opening up about life before and after Meghan became a royal.

While promoting her new memoir, “The Diary of Princess Pushy’s Sister,” Samantha revealed that Pushy Sister represents Meghan, and she has been on the receiving end of backlash.
