Worse to come of course , that half sister has confirmed she has signed up for 'Celebrity' Big Brother

MuddyForestWalks · 29/07/2018 12:28

Has he NewYear? The man just embodies class and dignity Hmm poor Meghan. I wouldn't swap families for ten times her wealth and privilege.

CocoaGin70 · 29/07/2018 12:28

There are 4 separate articles on the DM online today. All basically saying exactly the same thing.

I feel incredibly sorry for her. Imagine having grown up with all that around you. No wonder she's taken the chance of a new life far away from it all. I'm also very surprised that KP hasn't put a stop to it.

NewYearNewMe18 · 29/07/2018 12:30

Im not even sure exactly what relation the other one is ...the half brothers son, a half nephew? he's getting his own reality TV show in the US, he's the legit cannabis grower

Trailer trash, all of them.

Clionba · 29/07/2018 12:32

Harry must be fuming. He's no lover of the press. He feels very protective of Meghan, I'm surprised they're not trying to put a stop to it (maybe they are).

glasserator · 29/07/2018 12:32

It does say that no money was asked for or paid to him, @AviatorShades

PeakPants · 29/07/2018 12:34

Yup, poor woman. They are scum and clearly don't give a shit about her, given how they have set out to humiliate her in the press and even beg her fiance not to marry her. I hope she never speaks to them again.

IWannaSeeHowItEnds · 29/07/2018 12:36

Latest thing is him saying how Princess Diana would have disapproved of thrm cutting him off. How the fuck would he know - he didn't know her. That's shameless, dragging his dead mother into it.

NewYearNewMe18 · 29/07/2018 12:36

Yes, muddy he's given quite a vicious interview in the good old DM today ….. some of the quotes … even dragged Diana into it! :

'I refuse to stay quiet. 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.'

'Oh, she's a mummy's girl now and Doria gets a lot of the credit,' he says, a trace of bitterness in his voice.

'I was having my good years then, making good money, and could afford to give her the best, with a good school, good education, good home. '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?'

Mr Markle said: ‘They [the Royal Family] have Meghan treating her father in a way that Harry’s mother, Princess Diana, would have loathed. That’s not what Diana stood for.’

‘Meghan got her attitude from her mother,’ he said. ‘Doria always told Meghan: “If they’re not doing anything for you, why should you do anything for them?”’

LooksBetterWithAFilter · 29/07/2018 12:36

Just had a google. He’s also claiming Diana would have loathed the way he’s being treated. He really is a piece of work isn’t he?
He isn’t giving her much credit really saying the Royal family are making her shut him out. I’m not sure I’d want to speak to my family again if they had been writing public open letters telling my now husband he still had time to back out of marrying me days before our wedding.

OliviaStabler · 29/07/2018 12:37

They probably get paid for every quote, for them it is an easy way to make money.

derxa · 29/07/2018 12:38

I'm not a Meghan fan but her DF is doing himself no favours.

SmileSweetly · 29/07/2018 12:38

Poor Meghan, her family are disgusting low life's, I really wish the media would stop giving them a voice. I feel so sorry for her though.

Spudlet · 29/07/2018 12:42

God, poor woman. No wonder she doesn't speak to him.

I would imagine her mum is heaving a sigh of relief at no longer being in a relationship with him - can you imagine?

SavannahSky · 29/07/2018 12:43

I've not seen anything from the sister?

Are you all seeing this in daily mail site?

TwoBlueShoes · 29/07/2018 12:45

Every day they find some way to drag Diana into something. It must get a lot of clicks. I'm guessing the Markles also get a lot of clicks. The Daily Mail is all about the clicks.

TwoBlueShoes · 29/07/2018 12:47

There are about 10 Meghan stories on the Daily Mail site today.

Dumela · 29/07/2018 12:47

Imagine if it was Doria or her relatives doing this? All names would've been applied.

Tomorrowillbeachicken · 29/07/2018 12:51

Definitely wish they would piss off

Tabathatwitchett · 29/07/2018 12:52

It must be so frustrating for them to not have the right of reply. Clearly she's not about to do her own interview in the Mail- she just has to sit tight and watch them make fools of themselves.

Having said that I am not a Meghan fan and do wonder how this will end.

LanaorAna2 · 29/07/2018 12:54

Suspect the dad's pissed all the time. Dsis is deranged.

No wonder Meghan fits into the Royals so well.

ManicUnicorn · 29/07/2018 12:54

God they're just so trashy aren't they? Awful money grabbing low lives. No wonder she doesn't want anything to do with them. I could well imagine Megan posting on here about them and whether or not she should go NC.

LanaorAna2 · 29/07/2018 12:56

The Fail are only pushing the fam's stories because they're desperate to get Meghan to talk herself. It worked with Diana - she rang them all the time.

MissionItsPossible · 29/07/2018 12:56

They are low class and I would be hugely embarrassed if half of my family were acting like this if I was in a famous relationship and wouldn’t speak to them either.

raisedbyguineapigs · 29/07/2018 12:59

I bet Doria is regretting ever getting involved with them (apart from having her DD of course). All the half siblings and their ex wives are all getting in on the act. Meghan is right to cut them out of her life. Half of me think KP should issue threats to the press that they will never get exclusives or interviews if they continue giving these people the oxygen of publicity, but on the other hand they probably are giving the GB public much more credit than the DM and channel 5 do. They know these people are showing themselves to be the scum they are. Whatever her dad says, when you compare the beautiful, intelligent successful Meghan Markle to her trashy family, the common denominator is not Doria.
