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.

British royal family news shows that Meghan Markle’s brother Thomas Jr. has as much use for her as she does for him. He’s released a brutal YouTube video in which he pretends to be Meghan, a woman who told Oprah Winfrey that she is an “only child.”
Thomas’ 90 minute video shows him in a wig and tiara as he says “My name’s Me-again Swamp-donkey Crotch” and to be clear those are his words not ours.
With a pillow under his shirt as he exclaimed “I was just showing off the new bump I bought used on eBay out of Montecito.” Reaction to the video was mixed with one poster writing “Good for him! And it shows exactly what class of people Meg comes from.”

Meghan Markle’s half-brother, Thomas Markle Jr., has been criticized for mocking the duchess in a childish video uploaded to YouTube last week.
The 87-minute video shows Thomas wearing a wig and tiara, mocking Meghan. Thomas stuffs a pillow in his shirt to simulate a pregnant belly.
“My name’s Me-again Swamp-donkey Crotch,” Thomas says in the video. “I was just showing off the new bump I bought used on eBay out of Montecito.”
In the past, Thomas has shared conspiracy theories about Meghan and her husband, Prince Harry, including speculation that she faked her births. Thomas has also mocked Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland. On one occasion, Thomas called Meghan’s brand America Riviera Orchard “American River Whore Orchard.”
Despite not having a relationship, Meghan has been the topic of several of her half-brother’s videos. Users have called for Thomas’ account to be taken down for bullying and abuse.

Prince Harry may still be quarrelling with his family and the British courts, but Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, has put a dispute with one of her relatives behind her.
After almost two years of litigation and several amended complaints, a federal judge today threw out the defamation case from the former Suits star’s half-sister. In fact, it’s no exaggeration to say Judge Charlene Edwards Honeywell tossed out the efforts by Samantha Markle hard.
“The Court grants the motion to dismiss, in full,” the Florida-based judge wrote in her 58-page order Tuesday. (Read the ruling here).
“Plaintiff’s claims will be dismissed with prejudice, as she has failed to identify any statements that could support a claim for defamation or defamation-by-implication by this point, her third try at amending her complaint, in either the book Finding Freedom, the Netflix series Harry & Meghan, or Defendant and her husband’s hour-long televised CBS Interview,...

TV host Piers Morgan has publicly named the two royals who allegedly made comments about the skin color of Harry and Meghan’s son Archie.
According to Morgan, the names were mentioned in the Dutch version of Omid Scobie’s new biography, Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy’s Fight for Survival. The biography named King Charles III and Princess Kate Middleton, wife of Prince William as the two who made comments about Archie’s potential skin complexion.
Scobie alleges in the book that Markle wrote private letters to Charles naming two royals who took part in “troubling” conversations surrounding her and her then-unborn son’s skin complexion. In the final edition of the book, Scobie did not name the family members who made the remarks. However, several translations, including the Dutch translation, had the names printed.
Xander, the Dutch publisher, is currently trying to pull the book out of stores.

A tentative trial date has been scheduled for Samantha Markle’s defamation lawsuit against her half-sister Meghan Markle.
A federal judge in Florida originally ruled that the trial would start on November 4, 2024. According to legal papers filed this month, he expected it to last about five days.
The date was rescheduled to an amended suit filed by Samantha, as her original case was thrown out earlier this year.
Samantha has claimed that Meghan defamed her during her tell-all with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, in which she and Prince Harry said that she “grew up as an only child” and didn’t have a close relationship with Samantha. She is seeking $75,000 in damages.
The updated suit alleges that Meghan’s statements damaged Samantha’s reputation and the credibility of her book, The Diary of Princess Pushy’s Sister Part One, which discusses her relationship with her half-sister over the years.

Prince Harry and his father, King Charles, have not been on great terms for at least five years. Back in 2018, Harry married his wife, Meghan Markle, and it seems that as soon as Harry and Meghan started dating, tensions rose between Harry and the rest of the family. As a result, Harry and Meghan left the royal family in 2020 and moved to California.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been back to the United Kingdom a handful of times since relocating to North America. But when it came to Charles’ coronation, Harry went solo — Meghan opted to stay behind. And one royal expert says the only reason Harry chose to support his father was because he needed “to be seen” with the royals in order to maintain his “relevance.”

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.

Leonardo DiCaprio took the stand at Washington, D.C.’s federal courthouse on Monday as a witness in the trial of former Fugees member Prakazrel “Pras” Michel.
Pras is accused of allegedly funneling money to Barack Obama’s 2012 presidential reelection campaign through straw donors and working with fugitive Malaysian financer Low Taek Jho, also known as Jho Low. Five years later, prosecutors say Pras tried to squelch an investigation into Low under former President Donald Trump’s administration. Additionally, Low is being accused of masterminding an international money laundering and bribery scheme that stole billions from the Malaysian state investment fund known as 1Mdb.
Both Michel and Low are facing charges in the United States, but Low remains at large, so Michel is on trial alone.

Burt Bacharach, the singularly gifted and popular composer and Oscar winner who delighted millions with the quirky arrangements and unforgettable melodies of Walk on By, Do You Know the Way to San Jose and dozens of other hits, has died at 94.
Bacharach died Wednesday at home in Los Angeles of natural causes, publicist Tina Brausam said Thursday.
Over the past 70 years, only Lennon-McCartney, Carole King and a handful of others rivalled his genius for instantly catchy songs that remained performed, played and hummed long after they were written. He had a run of top 10 hits from the 1950s into the 21st century, and his music was heard everywhere from movie soundtracks and radios to home stereo systems and iPods, whether Alfie and I Say a Little Prayer or I’ll Never Fall in Love Again and This Guy’s in Love with You.
