And the award for worst sister ever goes to…
Samantha Markle!
It comes as absolutely zero surprise that Meghan Markle‘s half-sister is sounding off about the Sussexes and why she disagrees with their big decision to step down from their royal duties.

In a Friday interview with the British TV program This Morning, the 54-year-old explained her thoughts on the situation involving her sis and Prince Harry, specifically in regards to their relationship with Thomas Markle:
“Prince Harry and Meghan have quite a bit of apologising to do. We aren’t talking about teenagers, we are talking about adults who knew what they were doing and in regards to my father it was so incredibly wrong and shocking.”
Insinuating the 38-year-old took on somewhat of a British accent and only enjoyed her royal role when it behooved her, she added:
“From my perception, I feel that she [Meghan] did enjoy it when there was the fab four and the photographs of her hair blowing in the wind and the smiling and the contrived British accent.”
Samantha believes that the harsh criticism which Meg has received (and spoken out about) is why she is choosing to step down from her senior position within the royal family along with Prince Harry:
“But when the public state to criticise the behaviour and expenditure the tune changed and it became a bit more attribution error, avoiding accountability, flipping the script, and it’s quite hurtful I’ve never seen anything that was racist in nature so it seems a misplacement of blame to avoid accountability.”
She explained:
“I just thought it was a gross breach of duty or honour and confidence that was placed on her.”
As royal devotees are aware, the Sussexes announced in October they would be seeking legal action against the corporation Associated Newspapers for the leak of the Suits alum’s private letter to her father.
Earlier this week, new court documents were filed by the defense which argued because there is a “huge and legitimate public interest” in the royal family, which includes its “personal and family relationships,” the letter sent by the newlywed was fair game to publish. Apparently, Samantha has a legal degree now and further weighed in on the letter written by her half-sister to their dad and commented specifically on the ongoing legal proceedings:
“This claim of breach of privacy doesn’t seem to have legitimate basis. It seems somewhat ludicrous, in my opinion.”
And should Thomas testify in court? Well, she has her opinion on that as well:
“Of course he would. The truth is the truth. And so, based on that, of course he would testify.”
