Meghan Markle’s Most Embarrassing Family Moments

Meghan Markle is an elegant queen who has handled every controversy thrown at her with grace and maturity. Still, nobody’s perfect, and beyond her issues with the Royal family, Meghan’s family itself has its own share of problems. Even though the ex-Duchess flew halfway around the globe to get away from the Brits, it seems that her own past and family are inescapable. 

Her half-brother, half-sister, and father are constantly talking to the press and airing their private business. Meghan herself isn’t too close with her family today, and after seeing all these embarrassing moments, we can see why. 

Her dad claims that royals owe him

Think you have an embarrassing father? It turns out that Meg’s is worse. Her dad almost destroyed the royal wedding with his tabloid-seeking antics, and he even sold a letter that she addressed to him to the paparazzi. He even made a documentary dubbed Thomas Markle: My Story, where he gave a speech on a lengthy list of who “owe him”, obviously including his daughter, her husband, and the entire Royal family. Apparently, Thomas thinks that after what he’s “been through” that he should be “rewarded”. We’re pretty sure that his daughter wins the contest of who’s had it harder in the past few years.

Her older half-brother did a jaw-dropping interview

Thomas Markle Jr. clearly takes after his dad — in 2018, months after the Royal Wedding, her older half-brother completed a detailed interview with InTouch, that contained a whopping 5 parts. Evidently, their shared dad did a lot of cocaine back in the 1980s, had scandalous sex trips in Thailand, and cheated on Meghan’s mother multiple times. He also claimed that their dad expected her to pay him back for college after she started making money on Suits. Wow. Both of these guys really sound like keepers — not. 

Her half-sis predicts her divorce

Samantha and Meghan don’t have a close-knit relationship, but her half-sister changes her mind all the time on how she feels about their relationship — especially when the gossip hounds are hungry to buy a story. In an interview with TMZ from earlier this year, Samantha made some pretty outrageous statements. First, she commented that everything Prince Harry knows about Meghan is a lie. Then she made a bold prediction that the couple would inevitably get divorced, unless they sought out couples counselling. 

Thomas Markle calls his daughter a liar

Although Thomas Markle has spilled plenty of tea on his daughter, one of the worst moments was when he went onscreen with Samantha to call his other daughter a liar. He says that he paid for her tuition at Northwestern University and that it took him years to pay that debt back.  He even went so far as to say he was “ghosted” by Meg as she led her new life.

Samantha writes a book

Surprise, surprise — someone from this family was bound to write a “tell all” filled with troll content. Her memoir is titled The Diary of Princess Pushy’s Sister, which was obviously a nickname given to Meghan. Super mature, Samantha. Beyond this very classy move, Samantha was at a loss for words when an interviewer asking her about the book questioned what she would say to people who think she only wrote the book to make money off her celebrity sis. 

Her half-brother goes to court for drunk driving

This isn’t just embarrassing — it’s depressing. Obviously, Meghan Markle’s family has some issues, but in 2019, Thomas Markle Jr had to face a judge as a result of irresponsible drink-driving. He was also previously arrested for waving a firearm in a woman’s face after fighting drunkenly with his wife-to-be. He can judge Meghan Markle all he wants, but that would seriously be hypocritical after all the run-ins with the law that he’s had.

Meghan’s one embarrassing moment pre-Harry

Before she was a royal herself, Meghan has said some controversial things herself. After all, when she was an actress she was allowed to be a lot more open than the edited, buttoned-up version that Buckingham Palace forced her to be. In 2013, she did an interview on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson.

Jaw-dropping moments include Craig commenting on how hairless Meghan Markle must have been as a competitive swimmer, along with Meg revealing she grew up on the set of Married With Children and commenting that the set was “a very perverse place for a little girl”, when you think about the show’s raunchy content and the fact that they had guest actresses such as adult film star Traci Lords.
