Meghan Markle's Estranged Half-Sister Sparks Drama in the UK
Alright, folks, buckle up because this is about to get real. Meghan Markle’s estranged half-sister, Samantha Markle, has been stirring up quite the storm for months now. Samantha has been vocal about the Duchess of Sussex’s choice not to engage with their father, Thomas Markle. And now, Samantha’s allegedly set to touch down in the UK this week, ready to confront Meghan in what looks like a looming showdown. This family drama is escalating faster than you can say "Royal Family."
Let me break it down for you. Samantha’s publicist, Rob Cooper, fired off a tweet on September 24 that reads, “Samantha Markle is coming to the UK. After making numerous attempts in private to arrange a one-on-one meeting with The Duchess of Sussex to discuss their 74-year-old father’s health, Kensington Palace has refused to respond. I fear Meghan may not be made aware of these discreet attempts and therefore making this public is the only option we have left.”

Calling Out the Palace: Samantha’s Message
Here’s the kicker: Samantha isn’t just sitting back and waiting for a response. According to her publicist, Samantha is just one short flight away in Europe. Rob Cooper added, “This DOESN’T need to be public, we would prefer to keep this private. Samantha is coming to the UK this week, like it or not.” But let’s be honest, posting all of this on social media for the world to see? That’s anything but private.
Samantha herself has been using social media to air her grievances since Meghan got engaged to Prince Harry. Recently, she took to Twitter to call Meghan a “DuchA–.” Samantha prefaced her rant by saying, “I am not candy coating anything anymore!” According to the Daily Mail, she continued, “The DUCHA– should be humane to our father who has given her everything and this media crap can stop!”
She went on to say, “Just because she’s married to royalty does not mean she can treat people like s–t. Wake up public! I’ve never seen such an arrogant world in my life. There is more of a burden on her to be good to our dad as she claims to be a humanitarian.”
The Father’s Perspective: Thomas Markle Weighs In
Thomas Markle has also been vocal, bashing Meghan in several public interviews. In one particular sit-down with The Mail on Sunday, he said, “I used to have a phone number and text number for her personal aides at the Palace, but after I said a few critical words about the Royal Family changing Meghan, they cut me off.”

He added, “What riles me is Meghan’s sense of superiority. She’d be nothing without me. I made her the Duchess she is today. Everything that Meghan is, I made her. She became the woman that she is today thanks to everything I did for her. And did I get any recognition for it? Any thanks? She doesn’t even speak to me now. How cold is that?”
Where Do We Go From Here?
This family feud is far from over, and Samantha’s arrival in the UK promises to bring even more drama. As for Thomas, his feelings of being overlooked and unappreciated by Meghan are palpable. Meanwhile, Samantha’s tactics—whether you agree with them or not—are certainly keeping this saga in the public eye.
