Meghan, Duchess of Sussex has addressed her relationship with her half-sister, Samantha Markle, who sued her for defamation and lies about her life in March 2022. Thomas Markle Sr's eldest daughter is also the author of a book about Prince Harry's wife, whose title

The Diary of Princess Puschy's Sister

sets the tone for their relationship which she says came to a halt before the royal wedding.

Meghan Markle, whose parents separated when she was two and who was raised by her mother, says they were never close and don't know each other.



In the first installment of

Harry & Meghan

, the documentary airing on Netflix, the former

Suits

star speaks directly to Samantha Markle.

“I don't know your middle name.

I don't know your birthday.

You tell these people that it was you who raised me, and you baptized me Princess Pushy”, she declares before resuming the thread of her narration.

“I don't remember seeing her when I was a child at my father's house – if and when they came.

And then the last time I remember seeing her was when I was in my twenties.

I didn't have an argument with her.

We weren't close enough for that.

The Duchess, however, added that she regretted this lack of ties: "I wanted a sister," she said.

Resentment

The documentary clarifies, with a statement, that “Samantha Markle maintains that she and Meghan had a close relationship until 2018 and that the media fabricated remarks attributed to her”.

However, Ashleigh Hale, the daughter of Samantha, raised and adopted by her grandparents and close to Meghan, intervenes in

Harry & Meghan

, and gives a less idyllic vision of her mother's feelings for the Duchess of Sussex.

"After the news - of Harry and Meghan's relationship - broke, Samantha quite quickly started to utter a lot of angry words about Meg towards me.

What was communicated to me was perhaps a certain resentment, ”said the niece of Meghan Markle.

Ashleigh Hale clarified that she no longer had a relationship with her mother, adding, to drive the point home: “There are people with whom you cannot reason”.
