Meghan Markle’s half-sister, Samantha Markle, is intent on letting the world know who the duchess (allegedly) really is. She is the author of “The Diary of Princess Pushy’s Sister Part 1,” which, per Us Weekly, sought to lift the veil on one of the most famous women in the world by clarifying that she’s actually a cruel, social-climbing harpy.
Now, Samatha is suing the former “Suits” star over the claims she made during her infamous Oprah Winfrey interview. In legal documents obtained by TMZ, Samantha argues that Meghan has been pushing an inaccurate “rags to royalty” story about her upbringing, which naturally involves trashing the entire Markle family.
Samantha takes particular issue with her claims about growing up in abject “poverty,” positing that Thomas actually funded Meghan’s education in “elite and expensive private schools,” alongside dancing and acting classes, to bolster her career. Moreover, although Meghan has always maintained that she paid her way through college, Samantha declares that Thomas footed the bill there, too.
According to Samantha, Meghan is pushing a “false narrative and fairytale life story” for her own benefit. In doing so, Samantha claims, sales of her book have been negatively affected, alongside other work opportunities. She also alleges that she has suffered mental and emotional anguish as a result.
“This baseless and absurd lawsuit is just a continuation of a pattern of disturbing behavior,” said Meghan’s attorney, Michael Kump, in response. “We will give it the minimum attention necessary, which is all it deserves.”
