I know

abbsisspartacus · 29/07/2018 12:05

Agreed

LloydColeandtheCoconuts · 29/07/2018 12:08

What are they saying?

LadyCassandra · 29/07/2018 12:10

YANBU If you want a relationship with your daughter you don’t go bleating to the press every 5 days.
I don’t blame her for ignoring them.

HollowTalk · 29/07/2018 12:11

Agreed. The longer he goes on the more mad he sounds. And as for her half-sister - she's unhinged.

IWannaSeeHowItEnds · 29/07/2018 12:12

Agree. I think the press should actually stop publishing this crap now - surely it counts as harrassment?

greendale17 · 29/07/2018 12:13

They are so trashy

LaurieMarlow · 29/07/2018 12:13

I feel very sorry for her. Mind you I wish the press would stop giving them airtime. It's not even like they have anything interesting to say, it's just basic shit stirring.

SavannahSky · 29/07/2018 12:13

Where do you all read this?

Worieddd · 29/07/2018 12:15

Link please

mnahmnah · 29/07/2018 12:16

I can’t believe that they just don’t get it at all. Her sister is clearly crazy. But her dad should know better. They were so close and he’s put her in such a difficult position

mnahmnah · 29/07/2018 12:16

It’s all on the daily fail. Which I obviously don’t read. Ever. Blush

Clionba · 29/07/2018 12:17

It's not going to stop. What a crazy situation. I did wonder what they must be like if you have a ginormous celebration wedding yet the only member of your family you invite is your mum.

Bumpitybumper · 29/07/2018 12:18

I can only imagine how embarrassed and annoyed Meghan must be about their antics. It's like they are actively going out of their way to show her up and irrespective of what she has done or not done, it seems a pretty harsh and very public way of doing it.

I do wonder though if she has attempted to cut off her family as she is aware that they don't really fit in with the whole Royal scene. That must be pretty hurtful for a father and I can understand why he feels aggrieved.

mateysmum · 29/07/2018 12:18

I wish the Daily Fail would stop giving this family the oxygen of publicity. If MM came on MN and told her tale, she'd be told to go no contact straight away.
MM must feel so let down.

StatisticallyChallenged · 29/07/2018 12:19

The more of this crap they pull, the more I feel like my gut feeling (that a large portion of her family are assholes and it's no wonder she's pulling away) is correct.

In her position why would you want to talk to them when they then reveal your private conversations on TV interviews?

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 29/07/2018 12:21

I agree. That sister of hers needs gagging pronto. Bitter, horrid woman.

probatenovice · 29/07/2018 12:21

I was only thinking this recently. I had no interest in the royals at all until I saw the car crash interviews with her dad and sister. I now feel really sorry for her. They're obviously both horrible self obsessed idiots and I can fully understand why she has nothing to do with them. I think everyone reading and watching will be on her side now.

Samcro · 29/07/2018 12:23

i wish the press/tv would stop giving them airtime.
they are horrid people.

itswinetime · 29/07/2018 12:23

I do think it's time to stop fanning the flames they have nothing important to say!! However the positive is the more they kick off the more people see how Meghan was right in the first place and hopefully all that nastiness aimed at her over the wedding list ect is over.

AviatorShades · 29/07/2018 12:24

Not just giving them "oxygen' , they're giving him and the others hard cash too.

The veritable Cash Cow of the family, so it seems..

SauvignonBlanche · 29/07/2018 12:24

I haven’t heard a word from them. I suggest you change your newspaper.

Rebecca36 · 29/07/2018 12:25

Quite agree longwayoff but feel ignoring them is the best idea.

NewYearNewMe18 · 29/07/2018 12:26

In the absence of a response from the Royal family I see Markle Snr has turned to attacking Doria to provoke a response.

They really are a god awful family

Emma765 · 29/07/2018 12:26

Apparently her sister is going in to celeb big brother.... 🙄🙄
